Recommendations to others considering Greenshot:
Get it! The program is very inexpensive and for a Mac, it can be purchased for only a few dollars. For Microsoft Windows users, there is even better news! If you're running a PC instead of a MacBook, then you're in luck - there is no fee! For other programs, take SnagIt for instance, you'd be paying around $50 for a permanent copy of the software. The one thing that SnagIt has that Greenshot doesn't is the inherent ability to screen capture and recognize specific text. On the other hand, Greenshot allows you to customize the operation of the program via assigned hot keys. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What problems is Greenshot solving and how is that benefiting you?
There are many times where we need to snip parts of a video. Sometimes, when you try to do that with other tools such as the Windows Snipping Tool, the mouse pointer or the cursor is accidentally left on the screen. With Greenshot, that becomes less likely to happen as you never have to maneuver the mouse ... all you do is press the printscreen key on the keyboard. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
