Pros
It does everything. Keeps clips so you can go back and choose one you did before. Has a "safe" box to keep clips you use often. You can append clips, edit clips, print clips, do PDF...the list goes on. I never have to use Notepad. It all goes in ClipMate. I've been using Clipmate for years. Version 7 is the best. Great support too. I only wish they had an affiliate program.
Cons
You have to spend some time learning everything it does. Just learn the activities you do most.
Summary
I find this program indispensable.

Pros
Directional paste, save unlimited clips in distinct folders, convert PDF to RTF format, quick joining of multiple clips, stays on top, batch text clean up, extremely stable, exceptional, patient and personal support by developer.
Cons
There are so many features, that a slight learning curve is required.
Summary
As a recruiter I enter an enormous amount of data into a database for selection purposes. I stumbled onto Clipmate early on and have used it for years. The initial versions had a few bugs (memory intensive, hang, etc) but they have been ironed out.Program allows me to select the data I need from any document using keyboard strokes and insert it into a data storage in series without moving the mouse, using standard keyboard cut and paste strokes. Text can be cleaned up, characters, leading spaces removed, capitalization changed for individual clips, entire documents or a selection of clips. PDF, which my preferred database will not store, can be changed to RTF (Windows Key +W) with a key stroke.
A group of clips can be 'glued' together and pasted as one text.
I have specific documents and information stored (such as contact information for form entry) in clip files. I also have documents which I need to send often in a separate file, so I can just insert them (logo, terms, etc)
The developer still answers questions personally and is patient with problems. I have recommended the program to others I cooperate with, and they are all very grateful.
If I could find something better, I would use it, but so far nothing beats the price for the functionality.
