I've been a Snagit customer for years I've been a Snagit customer for years; it is a great alternative to more expensive products (like Adobe) if you don't have heavy graphics demands. I primarily take screenshots and draw system architecture diagrams for tech docs, so I'm not doing intensive photo editing by any means. Never crashed. I've used Camtasia for the past two years. It does seem a little buggy - I get a wierd black screen randomly when I clip video segments, and the file size it produces seem unnecessarily large. Also, the media directory isn't relative to the project, so if you move a project around you have to relink all your media. But I would still recommend it as a product for video production - again, not a power user by any means. Customer support is just fine - sometimes they can help, and sometimes they cant!

Snagit keeps crashing In theory, Snagit seems like a great program. The problem is, Snagit constantly crashes. I now call this program crashit! I cannot waste any more of my precious time trying to make this software work. I canceled my annual maintenance agreement. I have moved onto another screen capture program.

Been using Camtasia on and off for 10… Been using Camtasia on and off for 10 years.The software is nice and easy to use. Most recently subscribed to the 2023 version, which crashed and reverted to a trial version. Support is pretty hopeless so far. Apparently, they need time to sort it. I'm not hopeful looking at some of the other comments on here. (Gave it one star) Three hours later: I'm now with the third support person. I guess at least they are trying. Another three hours later: (changed to four stars) I must say, Techsmiths have redeemed themselves somewhat by fixing the situation very quickly when the right person arrived at the crash site. Huge thanks to Anthony for sorting it out quickly and painlessly I just hope this crazy error was a one-off.

Snag It and Camtasia I like their Snagit tool and Camtasia. I find them both easy to use, especially for those who need only intermediate capabilities. I use Snagit to capture screenshots and instruction graphics for our help center and Camtasia to do basic editing on webinar recordings. Works for my needs although their programs do crash occasionally and have bugs, I find I just need to exit the program entirely and restart it on my computer and that usually does the trick.

I have spent 10 years working with… I have spent 10 years working with company. The software is horrible. They sold me on their latest version the 2023 application because the other version kept crashing. What a waste of money and time! Camtasia crashed 15 times and I can’t open the project. They couldn’t restore it. I wasted months getting this done. I’ve spent 24 hours working on this (only getting 3 hours of sleep) only for the new version that I just paid for to crash yet again and now I am out of weeks worth in of content. I should have stuck with Premier Pro! Do not use this company unless you want to lose important information, especially if you are a business.
