Overall Satisfaction with Snagit

Am a single consultant using SnagIt. I find it easier to communicate to others via a screen shot rather than copying an error message or writing out a full description. From submitting defects to communication with customers, a picture is worth 1,000 words, right?! I can highlight items on the screen shot, trim, edit, merge with other screen shots, add text, blur out personal or irrelevant data. I also use SnagIt for simply expanding my workspace or keeping track of where I'm at. Take a quick screen shot, put on the second monitor while continue working on the first monitor. All images are kept on my computer for going back and looking by date or other criteria which is handy when needing information from the past.
  • Taking quality screen shots
  • Editing screen shots
  • Storing screen shots
  • Sharing/exporting screen shots
  • Regular Price for a single user seems higher than needs to be
  • Quality screen shots
  • Many screen shots saved automatically
  • Editing of screen shots
  • Increased efficiency and for an hourly consultant like me, that is important
  • Helping communicate effectively to customers yields fewer iterations of emails
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.

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.
