Snagit, practical software to capture your screen

In general, it is a useful and practical software to use, a person without technical knowledge can learn to use it from the first time, it saves the videos in the cloud and integrates very well with Camtasia.

PROS

I have been using snagit since it was called Jing, then Techsmith capture, in my experience I can say that it is easy and practical to use when recording a screen, its menu is not intrusive, and it can be used with hotkeys to quickly access its functions, it has many ways to capture the screen, you can select a window, a certain area, or the entire window.

CONS

What I don't like is that in a relatively short time, it has changed its name and this tends to cause brand confusion. Another negative aspect is that with certain antiviruses its recording stops, this can be very frustrating, since you don't realize it and you have to start the screen recording again.

Reasons for switching to Snagit

snagit has less intrusive menus and is more practical to use

Focused on video

PROS

I liked the screen capture and manipulation. But these features have not been updated in many versions and the bugs are not being addressed.

CONS

There is too much emphasis on video. Not everyone uses this for video.

Reasons for switching to Snagit

SnagIt has better features for a low price.

Loosing Ground to Microsoft

PROS

Historically...was reliable...not so more recently.

CONS

Difficulty using PrintScr - Long time Snagit user who is migrating to Snipping Tool (Microsoft), after Snagit became too laggy in trying to capture images on my screen. Not sure about the relationship between the "blue" Snagit and the "orange" Snagit, as it seemed like when I'd try to use PrintScr, the orange Snagit was doing the work, but then trying to annotate, the blue Snagit was doing the work. ...that's when it worked, as most of the time, I'd capture an image and the program would freeze. HP Envy x360 Laptop / 13th gen i7 (1.70GHz) / Windows 11 Home, version 23H2, Os build 22631.3447. Hope my review is helpful. Thank you.
