No incentive was offered My job requires me to take hundreds of screenshots on a daily basis. I use it with my Chrome because it is super convenient and fulfills all of the requirements from editing a screenshot to sharing it with clients and coworkers. It also allows me to download and save my screenshots on a local host. All in all it is the best of its kind. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 3/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros The thing that makes it awesome is its feature-loaded extension. It is a browser-based screenshot taker and screen recorder. It has multiple options when it comes to taking screenshots, as we can take a full page screenshot by just clicking on a button and it keeps scrolling down; we don't need to scroll either, we can take screenshots of a portion of a webpage, or we can capture full-screen. Another cool feature is we get to see an inbuilt screenshot editor and annotator. We can easily edit and share it with anyone as it stores everything in the cloud. We can record screens and this is also stored in the cloud. So, no need to download anything; it makes life super easy for those whose job requires them to take a lot of screenshots and screen recordings. #### Cons It is indeed awesome when we are talking about taking screenshots and using it with our browser but it is not so awesome when it comes to annotating or editing screen recordings and using it with software other than a web browser. This tool is not available in the form of an application so that the audience can use it as their default screenshot taker on their Windows or Mac machines. It also has limitations with screen recording editing. They are evolving and sooner or later these issues will be fixed. #### Reasons for switching to Awesome Screenshot Lightshot is a god tool too, but it does not offer a screen recording feature and it does not feel secure uploading confidential screenshots in their cloud. --- ### A great tool for screenshot capture covering all needs - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Analia F. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Insurance - Company size: 1001-5000 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for less than 2 years - Reviewed: October 2024 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered A great tool for screenshot capture covering all needs #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros It's a great screesnshot tool which allows to capture selected area, visible part, and also full page, while it scrolls down to the bottom #### Cons Shortcuts usually overlaps with Windows ones, and you need to configure and get used to them --- ### Good Product but BEWARE if you leave - Overall rating: 2/5 - Reviewer: Verified Reviewer - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Information Technology and Services - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: June 2023 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered good experience using the product (to make how-to videos for the team), once we had stopped needing to make videos all access to 2 years of content was switched and no team members had access.such a shame as its put a terrible tarnish on an otherwise good product.we now have an uphill battle to move and relink all videos that we already paid to make. I wish someone in their product team would pay attention. such a shame.please be aware of this, lots of other alternatives that are less expensive and without their predatory behavior, check out Bonjoro for example. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 2/5 - Value for money: 1/5 - Customer support: 1/5 - Functionality: 2/5 #### Pros easy to use chrome plug inintegration to trello #### Cons CS was not helpfulafter you finish using (2+ year of paid) you can no longer access the 400+ videos you have made. really really poor considering the cheaper alternatives like Bonjoro maintain video access and is the norm across most of these products --- ### Truly awesome screen capture software - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Namon B. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: E-Learning - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: August 2022 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Overall I've loved using Awesome Screenshot. I use it every day at work, and it provides — for free — all the functionality that I'm looking for. I also wish that it would capture the code inspector when I have that open, because sometimes I'd like to highlight aspects of the code that need to change. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros I use the free version, which provides a lot of functionality out of the box. It's easy to use, and allows for different screen capture options: visible part, full page, or selected area. Once I've captured the screen, I can add text notations, arrows, and shapes to highlight changes I want to make or communicate to others. Then I can download the image or just copy it to the clipboard. Very convenient and professional. #### Cons The tool to type text could be enhanced. It currently doesn't allow you to resize the text area, so you have to manually hit "enter" to go to a new line. #### Reasons for switching to Awesome Screenshot I don't remember which screen capture options I tried in the past, but none of them worked as well or provided the features I was looking for. --- ### Old version was superb, newer are not so great as ancestors. - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Rafa¿ M. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Management Consulting - Company size: Self-Employed - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: July 2022 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered Former versions were more intuitive than the new one (I mean 2020 versions) - less clicks to have editing options on screen. It is still easiest and advanced screen capture editor with sharing options. I recommend it to all, but developers should go back to the roots (quick&easy). Im afraid that in 2030 it will be a small photoshop. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros +quick and easy to use with Chrome plugin + a lot of screen capture editing options + videos are hosted on your (ie. dropbox, google drive) or their platform + great for screen annotations #### Cons - shortcuts not always work - text area sometimes not work as expected - logoff from external storage (google drive) is very often - no collaboration options (i.e. comment the same screen capture between a group of users) - saving a screen on disc is a little bit non-intuitive (it is easier to use browser's "save as" on pic than using native "save" option). #### Reasons for choosing Awesome Screenshot Had more positive reviews. --- ### "Best Screen recording and screenshot tool" - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Verified Reviewer - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Information Services - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for less than 12 months - Reviewed: August 2022 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered Yes, I think this software has some special features compared to other programs. Both installing and using it are easy. Three years into using the software, I've only recently noticed the addition of new features that I've liked. Overall, Awesome Screenshot has been effective in helping people solve issues. Most of the time, I needed to capture the entirety or a section of websites in order to share them with several individuals without first downloading them to a local computer or folder. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros The most encouraging aspect of this extension is that we can capture whatever that is playing on the screen, with or without audio, whenever we need to. We may capture the errors for record and clarification, which is really beneficial when it comes to testing and other things. The freedom that can be attained by using this programme is on another level because the extension may be used to snap screenshots of any screen we choose. I couldn't finish any of my documents without this application, and it's useful if we need to capture screenshots, audio, or the screen itself. #### Cons This tool is very enticing due to its simplicity. The ability to send screenshots and recordings to colleagues who are also using this programme via sharing features might be handy. Nevertheless, I don't need that. I typically provide screenshots via Slack or post them to Jira. --- ### A Valuable Tool for Our Business - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Pamela C. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Outsourcing/ Offshoring - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: May 2021 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Awesome Screenshot has improved over the years. I am very satisfied with what is offered at the moment. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros I love Awesome Screenshot because I can capture or record almost everything on my screen with ease. There are several annotation tools as well. I record many of my online meetings. It's easy to convert the recordings into an MP4 file. I have the premium version, and so far, I haven't had a time limit on my video recordings. Awesome Screenshots is always adding new features and just added a basic video editing tool with more features to come. This is one of the most valuable tools in my business. #### Cons I have a hard time capturing items in a dropdown box. The screen is captured before the list is shown. When recording a screen, you can hide the record stop button, but you cannot discreetly stop the recording. Awesome has email-only customer service, which can be slow. --- ### Flexible and Foolproof - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Karma M. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Education Management - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for less than 12 months - Reviewed: July 2022 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. I know that I can turn to Awesome Screenshot for reliable, quality screenshots no matter what I am working on and with the option to Copy rather than save I shave valuable time off of my content creation investment. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros As an educational content creator I work with many different types of files that contain my own creations. Often for collaboration or marketing purposes it is convenient to be able to take a quick shot of parts of a file rather than dismantling it or hunting for the pieces in all of my stored items. I ran into restrictions and complications with certain file types with every other screenshot software I have used. Not Awesome Screenshot. Any content I work with I can easily grab what I need with the various snipping tools. A real game changer is the "Copy" option that pops up immediately after taking a screenshot. Rather than download everything you snip, you can easily copy and paste without any data usage. #### Cons One drawback is that Awesome Screenshot does not have a scrolling screenshot tool that I am aware of. I have other software I use for when I need that specific tool. Also, I have found their video options in general to be lackluster. They certainly get the basics of recording usable video done and allow for very basic editing, but with so many other, richer options out there in this department it is rare that I turn to Awesome Screenshot for video. #### Reasons for switching to Awesome Screenshot Previous software had various restrictions on what I could screenshot based on file type, regardless if it was content I created or not. Awesome Screenshot does not once appropriate permissions are granted. --- ### Taking The Challenge Out of Screenshots - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Christopher E. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Education Management - Company size: 501-1000 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: July 2021 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Overall Awesome Screenshot is just what it says it is: awesome. It has excellent options for how to capture the screen and the annotation tools really make your screengrabs pop #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros As a teacher, I use screenshots and screen recordings all the time. Awesome Screenshot makes the process super easy. I love the various ways to capture the screen. The annotation tools are handy for a quick note and the new video editor is a nice addition. #### Cons The only issue I have is the paywall. I do not use the features behind the paywall often but sometimes I end up running out of cloud space at inconvenient times. There are workarounds but it is still annoying. --- ### Fantastic tool - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Verified Reviewer - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Internet - Company size: 201-500 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: February 2021 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Love the tool, use it every day #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros When you work with online designers and developers you need to effortlessly evaluate pages and layout, and communicate your thoughts visually - this gives you all you need to do that. great tool. #### Cons Not much, really, would be good to have a few more editing tools / pens etc, but can easily use it as it is. #### Reasons for switching to Awesome Screenshot Ease of use --- Showing 1 - 10 of 28 Reviews [See All Reviews](https://www.softwareadvice.com/screen-recording/awesome-screenshot-profile/reviews/) ## Awesome Screenshot Popular Comparisons [Microsoft Teams vs Awesome Screenshot](https://www.softwareadvice.com/screen-recording/awesome-screenshot-profile/vs/microsoft-teams/)[Snagit vs Awesome Screenshot](https://www.softwareadvice.com/screen-recording/awesome-screenshot-profile/vs/snagit/)[OBS Studio vs Awesome Screenshot](https://www.softwareadvice.com/screen-recording/awesome-screenshot-profile/vs/obs-studio/)[Loom vs Awesome Screenshot](https://www.softwareadvice.com/screen-recording/awesome-screenshot-profile/vs/loom/) [Compare All Alternatives](https://www.softwareadvice.com/screen-recording/awesome-screenshot-profile/alternatives/) ## See what companies are saying about Software Advice
