CNET editors' review
Reviewed by: CNET staff on June 29, 2009
ClipMate provides users with an opportunity to store and edit thousands of items from their clipboard. While the program is cluttered, its excellent performance makes this a great download.
The program's interface is initially confusing, thanks to the overwhelming number of small command icons spread throughout the screen. Fortunately, ClipMate provides tutorials and a Help file to teach users how to navigate through the various options. With a little trial and error, users of all skill levels will eventually be able to handle this program. We were pleased with how simple and accurately this program functioned. Whenever we chose to copy some text or a photo, it was listed on a small clipboard in ClipMate. We were able to store what appeared to be an unlimited number of copied items into our clipboard. Clicking the item brought it into the program's word processor, where we enjoyed all the various editing abilities associated with such a program.
The program's features were nothing that amazed us, but might be useful in the right situation. Users can configure their own keystroke macros, place items into a safe, and even sort clips by the day they were cut using this program. While users might be initially overwhelmed by this 30-day trial's busy interface, its benefits will quickly come into focus. We recommend this program for anyone who needs to cut and paste a great deal of information, thanks to its useful clipboard and word processor.
Publisher's description
From Thornsoft Development :Although the Windows clipboard is great for cutting and pasting one item at a time, often you need to work with more than one item (or "clip"). Or you may need to print, edit, re-format, or even spell check your data before pasting. Or you may need a way to store and organize lots of pieces of data (ClipMate can hold tens of thousands of "clips"). Whatever the need, ClipMate can help you do it all.

"Clipmate..... without question the best in class!"
Pros: 1. Clipmate is an incredibly useful utility that I have used EVERY day for many years.
2. This program is extremely feature rich.
3. Even though the program is long in the tooth the folks at Thornsoft continue to implement new features in Clipmate.Cons: The program, by virtue of its rich feature set, takes a little more time to learn in total than some of the other clipboard extender software, however the time spent learning about Clipmate is well worth it, and your efforts will be well rewarded.
Summary: Clipmate is the only utility program that has been on my systems since I first started learning about computers many years ago, and is one of the first to be reinstalled when I have to reformat. There are tons of cool features that make this softwa... read more >>

Version: ClipMate 7.3.14
"A fine clipboard enhancement"
Pros: It's doing everything I want from it and more. I'm still learning it's many capabilities. You may prefer to save some $$$ with the good FREEWARE clipboard enhancer "Ditto". Ditto is not as good, but is a big improvement from just having the clipboard
Cons: There are a great many bells and whistles. But then some like that too.
