Gadwin PrintScreen for Windows

User Reviews

• Great Product but their support is a ZERO

  TOMMYBAYSHORE11/1/2015

  Pros

  Great screen capture program.

  Cons

  Purchased the pro version, have emailed support numerous times over the past year, never once have i been contacted back, even emailed with my phone number and other email address's just in case it may be spam but still nothing. What good is a product if the support system behind it is non existant? Too bad, could be a five star product if they had a management team that gave two cents. Heck, i ever needed a 100 user licenses's and STILL never got a response...

  Summary

  Use the free version or find something else. DO NOT waste your money on this program as you will receive NO SUPPORT whatsoever.

• Latest versions annoying

  Al Abama10/15/2015

  Pros

  The screen capture works well

  Cons

  There is now a widget which opens everytime you use this app. That's OK but when you're finished with the capture, the widget doesn't close. It has to be shut down manually. That's very annoying. In the options box there is a choice to show the widget (check the box) or don't show the widget (uncheck the box). I have unchecked it time and again and it just rechecks itself each time. There is an option to hide the widget. But then it peeks out at you with a blue streak on the left side of the screen. Too much for me.

  Summary

  What's really annoying is I have contacted Gadwin support twice now over the past several weeks, asking them about the widget situation. Also I asked if there was some way to install a previous version (before widget). They have not had the courtesy to reply.

• Zero Support

  USMC0302_207/16/2015

  Pros

  There are no redeeming qualities fly by night

  Cons

  Three weeks of multiple inquiries for a tech issue have yet to yield a response. BBB Rating of F and featured in Rip-off Report. not a reputable business.

• Program is Innovative

  redddrake134/11/2015

  Pros

  I hate using print-screen sometimes. I don't like having no control until I edit the picture. This cuts out the middle man. Personal setup helps you choose the keys and method of capture. Would love to see a web page-capture.

  Cons

  Fan of version 4.7 Tried web-capture program for trial, wouldn't even let me have a trial. I try again every year or so. Would love to support them for all my captures, but getting to be some poor download experiences. Times must be tough!

  Summary

  Not sure where the end product will come and if they would got back to the primal version, but I know Windows 8 and Apple products are forcing everything into another age of expansion. Wish Windows 7 would have stuck around a little longer, but Windows 8 it is.

• A piece of you know what

  dolarmity9/12/2014

  Pros

  not one to be found

  Cons

  There isn't enough space to describe. Got a new Windows 8 computer and downloaded the print/screen program hoping to have what I had on my old computer. Big mistake. The "new and improve" came from some demented mind that obviously had not used the earlier version. I was difficult to just "click" and take a picture like before, after you "took" the picture the nightmare started, could not find where the file went (if anywhere). The one that "developed" this nightmare should be fired along with the one that approved it. I will try to get a new download of an earlier version.

  Summary

  If you want to know what: if ain't broken don't fix it, means, just download this masterpiece.

• TERRIBLE now

  photopest8/13/2014

  Pros

  It works is best I can say

  Cons

  Had previous version, worked great, flexible. New version allows only PNG file save. Took forever to find where it saved the grab. It wasn't broke and didn't need fixing.

  Summary

  Older version way better

• Used to be great. Now crashes all the time.

  ecoV7/20/2014

  Pros

  Great features,used to work fine.

  Cons

  kept dropping settings for a while, had to tweek the registry. Now, plain and simple, crashed whenever trying to use it. I'm on Windows 7 64 bits. Will move to another solution.

  Summary

  Was well made. Older version was perfect, newer ones buggy. Get something esle.

• do NOT buy the Pro version

  tellesadilson7/18/2014

  Pros

  - easy to use - very productive for people who needs to take a lot of printscreens

  Cons

  - Some small bugs (floating widget appears sometimes even if it is configured to not appear) - The Professional version has no support. Sent a couple of emails 20 days ago and opened some tickets in their support area and I never received an answer. Use the free version, but DO NOT BUY the Professional version. It not worth it.

  Summary

  Overall the software is good, but this company does not respect their customers. If they only answered their emails I would indicate this for everyone, but if you do now want to be ignored, do NOT buy software from Gadwin company.

• Excellent Freeware Application

  BearPuppy3/30/2014

  Pros

  Ease of use; Straight forward instructions / operation; Can leave it as a TSR (always loaded) or exit after use; and Can automatically link to an editor directly after capture.

  Cons

  None that I've found.

  Summary

  This is your basic one-trick pony. Which is just fine with me. I don't need a built-in editor, if I want to edit the shot, I'll select to do it then. For the occasional screen shot that I need, this is the perfect app: one button, one screen shot with excellent quality.

• Works as advertised

  bormanator2/15/2014

  Pros

  Free Easy to install Easy to use Fast startup

  Cons

  none so far

  Summary

  I don't use this much but it is handy when I need it. You can select the area to print or the whole screen. You can tell it where to store files.
