"Not worth the money!"
Version: Ashampoo Snap 5 5.1.2
Pros
Anyone can do a screen capture however Capture Freestyle Region & Rectangle work well.
Cons
Capture Scrolling Window (Freestyle & Website) Don't work!
Capture Scrolling Window (Website) did work in Snap 4 what happened?
Using the latest browser versions of Chrome, Firefox & Pale Moon.
Capture a video is worthless. Help for any issue doesn't exist.
Children without a clue wrote the help files and did not have supervision.Summary
They are most interested in getting you to buy all their other programs which I wouldn't advise considering.

"Problematic software."
Version: Ashampoo Snap 5 5.1.2
Pros
Capture's still screenshots no probs, but why bother, when you can do this same function by using the print screen tab and saving to paint... which is free.
Cons
Video capture wont work, tried initially the default settings then every other codec setting, but just constant black void screens... totally frustrating... also the tool bars, left & right were sporadic in their appearance, when you finished recording your video clip(attempting to) you can either hit pause/break or click on the top tool bar - exit/stop edit and this action should automatically bring up all the editing tool bars, however only sometimes they would appear, either both left/right wouldn't appear or the right toolbar would appear and the left one was hidden somewhere... very glitchy software.
Summary
I purchased this software so i could make personal music compilations by recording my favourite artists from obscure rare dvd's... however Ashampoo Snap 4 wont record anything from my pc dvd player or youtube files, thought maybe my copy was faulty, so uninstalled it then reinstalled it... but to no avail... looked at help/faq's however just says if you have difficulty capturing video then try another codec... tried all, and still no joy??? ...anyone got any tips, as would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

"Best Screen Capture I've used"
Version: Ashampoo Snap 5 5.1.2
Pros
Handy, quick and many features.
Cons
I too was unhappy with the frequency that I accidentally brought down the tool bar by having my mouse near the top of my screen, until I discovered the setting to put it on the right side of the screen(bottom or right too)...no more issues.
No cons for me.Summary
The best value in a very good screen capture program on the market.

"The userinterface is great"
Version: Ashampoo Snap 5 5.0.2
Pros
The tiny bar at the top of the screen works always
The interface at the sides (after taking a shot or making a Video) is perfectCons
The tiny bar at the top gets hit (by accident) too often.
Summary
I said it in the pros. I used Gadwin (FREE) before, but this product is much more flexible.
The most easy thing to use is: the printscreen button on your keyboard. It copies the desktop and shows the righthand menu where you can select almost anything you want: save, delete, print a.s.o.
The bar at the top gives a wide range of different possible screenshots and a way the construct videos of your desktop as you perform various actions there. -
