Chose Sendspark
Anytime we onboard a new client Sendspark sends all customer's details back to Hubspot. This is so handy as it's an automated process. If you prefer to use Zoho then no problem. It's in Sendspark as well. It would be great to use webhooks and API. But it's coming very soon.
Chose Sendspark
Loom provides all basic features of screen recording software but because they are established now, they sometimes fail to work on customer feedback while Sendspark is always innovative e.g one of the life-saving features is a link to share with customers to record their …
Chose Sendspark
No brainer. Stick with what is easy, has great customer service, and more functionality to be unique to your brand. Sendspark is the way to go for simplicity and the pricing is more affordable.
Chose Sendspark
Virtually all other video platforms have more functions, more functionality, more integrations, and more ways to customize everything. The only exception is (possibly) Vidyard. Layers of complexity lead to inertia. That leads to plenty of excuses to not incorporate video into a …

Former user of BombBomb. In fact, let my account lapse when I discovered how much easier this product was to use (and cheaper).
Chose Sendspark
Simpler and easier to use. Users are not intimidated when using Sendspark because it's less complicated.
Chose Sendspark
While Sendspark has a bit less functionality than popular rivals such as Loom and CloudApp, its affordability and simplicity have ultimately caused us to stick around. We are confident with the continued upgrades and functionality Sendspark is developing, it will continue to be …
Chose Sendspark
Pretty much similar in terms of delivery and usability. Both have a free version. But I like the flexibility of storage on demand as well as the UI seems to be more adaptable with Sendspark. In terms of functionality there is room for improvement thought but it is still early …
Chose Sendspark
Sendspark's ease of use and animated gif generation are two distinct advantages of this platform.
Chose Sendspark
So far I love it and cant compare it to other software.
Chose Sendspark
Sendspark is much better than Loom:
- CNAME
- Complete white label
Chose Sendspark
I've used Loom and Bonjoro. I switched to Sendspark because it basically does what both of those do so I only need one tool instead of two.
Chose Sendspark
I see a lot more flexibility and room for growth in Sendspark. The team is very [responsive and has] an excellent direction and roadmap of how they want to grow Sendspark. The ability to have Video Landing Pages is awesome and their video engagement analytics is superb as well. …
Chose Sendspark
Sendspark stands among other solutions due to the perspective behind the tool. They are trying to improve business conversion and client experiences by humanizing and customizing the touchpoints across different channels. People got tired of simple emails and tasteless contacts;…
Chose Sendspark
Well… to be honest, I decided to give it a try because of the price.
Chose Sendspark
Over the years, I've tried Loom and Vidyard but SendSpark trumps them all with white-labeling and reasonable costs.
Chose Sendspark
Camtasia is fine but it is not as simple to use, is not cloud-based, and the client has to download software to record their own screen and respond to your emails.
Chose Sendspark
Best all-around choice. It may not be as specialized as the others but it gives you the ability to do everything you need to get done as a solo freelancer without having to pay 3 different subscriptions for video tools that all do the same thing in a slightly different way.
Chose Sendspark
I used Loom before Sendspark and I think SendSpark is more economical and startup-friendly. Loom started off great and had a free plan. Eventually, things started getting pretty expensive and they started shutting down the free plan bit by bit till it became very limited. …
Snagit
Chose Snagit
Snagit takes an entirely different approach to saving, editing, and manipulating screenshots. Adobe is fine for .pdf documents, but it's challenging to use, and if it has the features Snagit has, I can't find them. GIMP is suitable for working with certain images, but it …
Chose Snagit
The features don't compare. Snagit just brings more to the table, despite it having a price associated with it.
Image capture, video capture, sharing via different formats.
Chose Snagit
Skitch, compared to Snagit, is a basic screen capture image editing tool. Skitch is also really easy to use and provides good screenshots for tutorials, user manuals, and blogs. However, Snagit is more robust and streamlined and is still an incredibly easy-to-use solution.
Chose Snagit
It's a great utility and cost-effective for the needs of business analysts to quickly crop, edit, and design images for documentation. It has areas to grow for process diagrams, in my opinion, but as a quick image editor, it has plenty of capabilities to get you by with …
Chose Snagit
Snagit has far greater functionality than the standard Control Alt Print Screen to capture images. Once you've used Snagit to capture an image, it can easily edited to serve its purpose in either use on a website, in office productivity tools, or in outward-facing collateral …

Cloudapp doesn't offer a screen records with 30 frames per second. Plenty of lags and frame drops can be seen while recording with Cloudapp. Where snagit works flawlessly in this section. Snagit has plenty of markup tools for easy accessibility and cloudapp lacks in this …
Chose Snagit
It's really convenient to use with defining lots of shortcuts and provides more flexibility to the user. Pricing is also less compared to the other products. Good Support, there is a community available, can reach out them 24x7 to get the solution.
Chose Snagit
There is no question that snag is a far superior product that has far more capabilities all with being very simple.
Chose Snagit
Native screen shot (snipping tool) is fine for basic screen shots and minor annotation. Snagit requires less time and does not need to have the images separately saved to have them be particularly useful.
Chose Snagit
Camtasia is just for video and Snagit is the best and intuitive for all users.
Chose Snagit
First of all, this is an integrated software by Tencent and the good side is that it is free to use, unlike other software that you need to pay for it's licenses to use. However, the reason Snagit still outshines Snip is that it is reasonable with the license that comes with …
Chose Snagit
Windows free snipping tool - Con: had to save each screen shot before I could take another screen shot and couldn't draw nice circles/rectangles around the area of the screen shot to bring attention.
Chrome plugin options - Con: editing tools were lacking.
Chose Snagit
Snagit has been around since the 1990s. I started using it back when there were not so many options out there. We have been so happy with it that we never really looked at any other product. And that really is the truth. We upgrade every 2 years and that cost compared to …
Chose Snagit
Snagit can be a bit more expensive than some of the opensource options (some of which are free and effective), but I think its value comes from the fact that no matter your level of tech-savviness, Snagit remains an out of the box solution that is ready to go on Day 1. That, …
Chose Snagit
Compared to Camtasia this is far easier and quicker to use for quick video clips. The idea during the day is to be able to create posts for clients fast an easily. I also use Sony Vega and Adobe but find Snagit much easier to work with short posts on Facebook and LinkedIn.
Chose Snagit
I haven't used Photoshop in a long time - but the learning curve was very steep with it. The learning curve with Snagit isn't, and most professionals who aren't actual designers don't need anything nearly as complex as PS. Snagit is the perfect solution - easy to use with the …
Chose Snagit
Snagit is much more robust than either of those tools. Both of those were very basic screen capture tools—no frills, no advanced features. They allowed me to grab a screen and make minor changes to it. We used a separate tool (Loom) for video capture. With Snagit, it does …
Chose Snagit
This is the first product of its kind that I have used and haven't felt the need to look elsewhere.
Chose Snagit
PhotoShop is of course a very powerful image editing tool. But, the learning curve is steep and all the tools and settings aren't necessary for our needs. Snagit is a streamlined solution for capturing videos, creating gifs, and editing images. (It also supports capturing …
Chose Snagit
Snagit is a much more scaled down version of Photoshop. This was ideal for our team as we are not performing heavy image manipulation tasks. We only need to add a few basic mark-ups to images, which is something easily done with Snagit. This saves us both time and the effort it …
Chose Snagit
After a while my Snagit stopped working and uninstalling and reinstalling wasn't fixing it. I decided to switch from Snagit to Format Factory's "Screen Record" program. I like this program because it does the same thing that Snagit does, and it's also free. My coworkers use …
Chose Snagit
Our organization does not use any other application to do what Snagit does. People in organization that do not have Snagit are using default Windows features (e.g., snipping tool). Compared to the snipping tool, Snagit is a lot more powerful and a way better application.
Chose Snagit
Snagit is cheaper and simpler than Photoshop. It's easier to get new writers up to speed with Snagit than Photoshop. We didn't need all the capabilities that Photoshop has, so Snagit fits the bill perfectly.
Chose Snagit
Adobe Photoshop can do the same and has thousands of more functionalities than Snagit, however, Snagit is much faster and lighter for the purposes described to easily take a quick screen shot and make notes and send them.
When using on dozens of users, it is more cost effective …

In my experience, Sendspark is particularly well-suited for sales and marketing professionals who need to create and send personalized videos at scale. The platform makes it easy to quickly record and share videos, which can be a great way to stand out in a crowded market and provide a more engaging and personal experience for clients. Additionally, the branding and marketing features of Sendspark are handy for maintaining a consistent and professional image. On the other hand, I think Sendspark may be less appropriate for organizations that require more robust collaboration and video editing features. The platform is designed for simplicity and speed, so it may not be the best choice for users who need more advanced editing tools or the ability to work on videos with multiple users simultaneously. Additionally, the limited customization options for video themes may not be suitable for users who need more flexibility in terms of design and layout. Other video recording and sharing platforms may be a better fit in these cases.

Let's say you are on a webinar or online meeting and want to take several screen shots of what is on the screen and save all of them. Rather than opening Windows snipping tool (or other free products) and needing to save each one as fast as you can, SnagIt saves all of them and you can go back and delete the ones you don't want. Capture the entire screen quickly or do a region for only a portion of the screen. Very handy. SnagIt also provides easy ways to add your edits to the screen shot in a professional way. Rather than trying to "hand draw" a circle around the item you want to bring attention to, you can use professional tools for circles and rectangles to highlight a specific area for someone to see right away when looking at this screen shot

  • Video capture - the countdown feature is great so you can set the scene. And you can convert to a gif and easily copy and paste to an email or messenger app.
  • Markup - easily blur areas, crop, cut out (in the middle of images), add text, add arrows or boxes around areas and much more.
  • Scrolling capture - allows me to grab images that span several scrolls to get everything in one image.

Cons
  • I would love to have a "Pause" button and to be able to resume a recording.
  • There is no editing functionality, but on the other hand what I like is its simplicity. So it's all about compromises!
  • It would be nice to be able to switch from the camera only to screen. (note that we can record both using the Chrome extension).

  • Sometimes the app won't catch that I'm pressing print screen and it won't register
  • Make the editing function a little more user friendly. Some options can be tricky to find.
  • Making it so you can automatically drag the image into a drop box without needing to save as PDF

Because with such a contribution it is possible to reach customers much better than with many other expensive tools. It is comparatively cheaper to do marketing with emails. So you should make your email campaigns as effective as possible. What really works with Sendspark. I think Sendspark will implement many more things. Which is why I am currently convinced to continue using Sendspark.

I think that the tool is excellent for what it is being used for. I particuarly like the ability to capture content from the screen whilst using the scroll wheel on my mouse. It is very annoying when your try to capture something with grab and you can't scroll which leads to multiple images

As I said earlier, I use it numerous times throughout the day. It's easy to execute and easy to work with. I am continually learning new features and incorporating them into my tasks throughout the day. Before we had Snagit, things we do routinely now were time-consuming and laborious, so often they just weren't done.

Performance
Support is very fast. I actually get Support between 8-24 Hours which is Important for us. The website tend to slow down sometimes, but will not affect the overall usage. I think they have a good Server Plan, which runs smooth. Until now we didnt had any serious problems with saving our Video Files or Uploading.

I've actually never had to contact support as the tool is easy to use. One aspect is that they upgrade and send email notifications of the upgrades. They don't charge extra for upgrades and their enhancements fall in line with the way we use the tool. We haven't had to submit any upgrade requests as the tool already does what we need it to do.

It's a simple next next finish install. The SnagIt Library in the user profile should probably be backed up to make sure they have access to their old screen captures. We frequently will go back to previous captures and add context bubbles etc. when software changes to show the "old" vs "new". Also, go to SnagIt's website and download the additional Stamp Sets for the user. These are terrific. I wish there was one download to get them all, but you have to download and install them one set at a time. It's worth it - especially for training how-to's.

Virtually all other video platforms have more functions, more functionality, more integrations, and more ways to customize everything. The only exception is (possibly) Vidyard. Layers of complexity lead to inertia. That leads to plenty of excuses to not incorporate video into a workflow because it's always easier for (most) people to type an email than add the layers of vulnerability to a prospect that comes with a video. Sendspark is affordable, by far the easiest to use and, on the rare occasion, we've needed them, the support is very responsive. If you want to get your employees - or more especially yourself - to follow through on using video in your sales|marketing|customer support then I suggest you seriously consider Sendspark (unless you're one of our competitors :) )

Scalability
I think there is a lot of space for scaling. But for a Company like us there is plenty enough of capabilites to use Sendspark without any lack of performance issues. Maybe Sendspark could be limited for very Big Companys. But since they are a Startup, maybe they will grow and dive us to a better overall experience.

Return on Investment
  • A member of my sales team went 10 for 10 on receiving replies from outreach prospects when leading with a Sendspark video message.
  • Received a PO for $109K on the last day of the quarter after messaging a customer with a polite and earnest Sendspark video to get the PO that day.
  • Supported a team member closing a sale by creating a Sendspark demo/explanation video of "this is how it would work" for the owner of a prospect company.

  • There is no doubt that Snagit has saved us a huge amount of time. Our time is valuable so the ROI there is very high.
  • I think the most positive impact is with the clients. They love the explainers and the training videos. It makes their life easier as they can watch on their time as opposed to setting up an online meeting and then never really covering what we need to. A very big convenience factor that my clients have thanked me for more than once.
  • The only negative is that it's not free! But it's not expensive either, it's a great tool and I can't really say anything bad.
