"FastStone Capture Review"
5/5
What do you like best about FastStone Capture?

I love FastStone Capture because of its ease of use! I use this tool daily to send out screenshots as tutorials to help end users with their IT needs. The tool allows me to mark and draw on my screenshot, allowing me to add shapes and text to further demonstrate the details I am trying to convey. I love this tool and it is easily the best screenshot application i have used to date. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about FastStone Capture?

I wish I could change the feature that follows the mouse pointer. Changing the color or shape of the highlight would be great.I love the feature to draw on the screenshot but it would be great to create a screencast with customized colors and shapes. I also would love to see a feature that allows me to edit videos I create by trimming. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Awesome Fast and Done!"
5/5
What do you like best about FastStone Capture?

I love the ability to capture in a variety of ways. Capture just a snip of something. Scroll capture a webpage for a colleague and highlight items of interest. I love being able to capture and email a problem, a solution,, a whatever to anyone. It is the ultimate visualize tool without all the learning curve. Speaking of learning curves, I use the video capture to document workflow for software for coworkers and myself on programs or workflows I don't use very often.

What do you dislike about FastStone Capture?

I can't think of any thing I dislike except I have not put it on my personal laptop. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Ability to capture more than just one desktop or window

Ability to save file as JPEG, BMP, PDF, TIFF, PNG,

Ability to draw on screen grabs.

Ability to further crop screen grabs

Ability to copy the screen grab and paste into an email

Ability to record the screen as well

Ability to set shortcut keys depending on the type of capture you'd like to perform.

It really is a good value vs performance based screen capture software that even the most inexperienced users can quickly adapt to using Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about FastStone Capture?

The inability to capture interactive menus in the middle of a selection. Typically I have do do a print screen of the entire desktop and then further crop the window to what I need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Lightweight Screen Capture with Good Editing"
5/5
What do you like best about FastStone Capture?

The software seems to run very lightweight in the background, meaning it doesn't bog down the computer at all but it very responsive whenever I press the hotkeys to capture the screen. There are a lot of options available for how you'd like to capture the screen (mouse or no mouse for example) and then there's a pretty rich editing software available once you have captured the screenshot. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about FastStone Capture?

There's not much I don't dislike about the software but one thing that's a little bit of a pain is how Capture creates tabs for each screenshot. It's not terrible but I'd like options for how multiple captures are handled. Maybe have a tiled view with thumbnails or something of the sort. I also can't really tell if the lines showing the boundary of the capture are covering up pixels that are included or if it only captures inside the boundary lines.

"From Screen Shot To Screen Recording!"
5/5

It’s very simple and intuitive! It allows me to share all of the work I’m doing! I must use fast stone 5 - 10 per day and I love it! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about FastStone Capture?

I dislike when you film with fast sone and I’m recoding a power point presentation I have to put the curser in the corner of the presentations. It’s stands out because it highlighted. I then have to edit my videos after the fact! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about FastStone Capture?

Writing text on the captured image is not very good quality. Free hand tool can be little improved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
