Overall Satisfaction with Snagit

When we are creating new training manuals for our computer classes we use Snagit to capture snapshots of portions of the software that we are explaining in the manual. We also use it to take snapshots of end-users screens via remote sessions when there is a technical issue so that we can diagnose it better.
  • Capture full screens
  • Capture portions of screens
  • Capture objects on screen
  • Easier object capture
  • Better way to set defaults
  • Options to combine images into one file directly from Snagit
  • Easier to create manuals with specific snapshots
  • Easier to have a record of client computer problems with detailed snapshots
  • Ability to add documentation and objects directly on a snapshot makes referring to diagnostic history of computer problems much easier
Windows snipping tool. While it is a nice tool it does not have all of the editing features of Snagit. You can grab a quick picture but you can't select a specific object only. And once you have saved it you will need another editing tool to make modifications to the image.

Program makes is very easy to capture a whole screen or just a part of it. It even allows you to capture a predefined section of a program like a Ribbon Tab in or a section of a program. If you are in Outlook for example you can select just the Favorites pane or the current email list pane and it will select only that. You can also set it to allow you to drag and select a subset of a screen. It can even select individual icons on the Ribbon in a program like Word or Excel. This makes it really handy for us when we are writing new manuals and need snapshots of what we are discussing on that particular page of the manual.
