"Easy, Smart Documentation with Seamless Integrations"
5/5
What do you like best about Scribe?

The screen shots follow every mouse click so it's easy to capture what you need. Scribe will add directions and context to each screen shot that is easy to edit. Scribe integrates easily with the platforms I use, which makes onboarding and training details easy to share. The overall performance is great because it's easy to use and the AI/Intelligence features are smart enough to create Headers so topics within a subject are automatically divided.

What do you dislike about Scribe?

It merges or removes steps based on AI/Intelligence. These are editable but need to be reviewed for accuracy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Makes Training New Hires on Repetitive Tasks Fast and Easy"
5/5
What do you like best about Scribe?

How easy it is to teach a new employee a new task, especially ones that are repetitive and low risk Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Scribe?

You have to be on the Pro plan to create Scribes outside of the browser, which is frustrating because most of our work isn’t done in the browser. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Phenomenal Tool for Creating Effective Visual Guides"
5/5
What do you like best about Scribe?

I find my experience with Scribe phenomenal because I can easily create how-to guides to help with network administration tasks, even when I'm not at work. What I like most is the Windows capture app, which allows me to capture the whole screen or specific apps, not just the browser screen. It helps me guide others by showing them visually how to do things or where to find documents, making training and onboarding much clearer. Additionally, the setup was really easy, which I appreciate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Scribe?

I wish there was a print button on the main page for sharing instead of having to share, then export, and then print a PDF, Word document, or Excel sheet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Simplifies Documenting Processes with Ease"
5/5
What do you like best about Scribe?

I like how Scribe makes it much easier to grab screenshots and record clicks, then go back and edit every step instead of having to build everything from scratch. I appreciate that it records every single step, so I don't miss anything. The initial setup was also very easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Scribe?

What I love is also what can be frustrating - it sometimes records too many steps, so I have to delete them if they are irrelevant/unnecessary or merge them together. The merging process could be easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Diversified Learning Options, Easy Setup"
5/5
What do you like best about Scribe?

I like that Scribe offers different options to share information, whether it's written, or a movie, or through guide me mode. It provides so many different options that cater to how people learn, allowing everyone to get the necessary information in a way that best fits their learning style. I also appreciate how easy it was to set up Scribe; I needed no help at all. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Scribe?

I don't like that for the best workflow, everyone on my team would need an account just to view scribes. But I've been able to work around that by making it to where anyone who has the link can view. They don't need a Scribe account. I just want them to be able to see the scribe that was made. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Turns Real Workflows into Clear, Shareable Step-by-Step Guides Fast"
5/5
What do you like best about Scribe?

What I like best about Scribe is how quickly it turns real workflows into clear, step-by-step documentation without interrupting the work itself. It makes it much easier to capture processes as they happen, which has been especially helpful for my role documenting operational and administrative workflows The interface is straightforward and sharing guides with others is simple. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Scribe?

One limitation is that Scribes often require manual cleanup after recording, especially when sensitive information needs to be removed or when the captured steps include unnecessary clicks. The editing tools are functional but can feel somewhat limited when trying to make more precise adjustments. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Instant Screen Captures Turned Into Shareable Step-by-Step Guides"
5/5
What do you like best about Scribe?

I like that I can screen-capture something and have it immediately turned into a step-by-step guide, which I can then share in multiple formats. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Scribe?

I’d like a dedicated button to start my scribe instead of having to tap the screen. Having to click on the screen has caused a few false starts for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
