  • Track sequential steps with screenshots
  • Create a document that you can easily annotate and give directions.
  • Quick and friendly customer service.
  • More control over the formatting of how the text and images end up in the final export.
If you need to guide anyone through any computer process more than 1-2x per year, StepShot is definitely the best tool we've found at this point. You can try the basic features for free and create a few guides. It would be nice if they had a pricing option between Basic and Pro, but definitely a useful tool!

StepShot is perfect for showing your audience how they are supposed to navigate a new system you have implemented. You can take them from a login screen all the way through any technical process you want them to follow. The product is not ideal, however, for documenting a process that does not have tangible steps. For example, a process we have created includes some reflective thinking about alignment or outcomes in order to work, this can be articulated in the text area of the screen captures but doesn't really capture our message.

  • The blur looks fine in the preview mode, but when exported, it's not the best.
StepShot isn't a tool for everyone. For example, StepShot is perfect for any business that has multiple employees, for creating standard operating procedures, and it's perfect for businesses that have customers that could benefit from step-by-step guides. It'll cut down on your support tickets tremendously, and you can use these images in a PDF, directly on your site, or in documents.
