Don't buy if you want to record screen videos
ferreiraoliveiraigor- Pros
- The software has enough setting options to most's purposes of use.
- Cons
- The official software requirements are very below of true requirements to record an framed video at HQ (854x480) quality, and even with on-the-fly or cache options, it cuts or delays the job, destroying your work. Even using an dedicated video card, with a good amount of RAM, at 2.8 GHz processor clock (running original 64-bit's Windows 10 very fast and with 50% free RAM memory), you can not use this app with confidence. I bought the 6 and 8 versions, following the official requirements, and was a total spent of money, and a deception with support of Ashampoo.
- Summary
- The software is heavy, because using an freeware screen video recorder as HyperCam, it records an HD (1280x720) frame without bigger problems. So, do not buy it following the official and badly wrong requirements of Ashampoo.
Did not work on Win 8.1
AlbusD- Pros
- Ashampoo refunded my purchase.
- Cons
- Program installed, ran, but was unusable. It would not allow even a simple clip from (for example) a web page. Support made a very half-hearted effort to solve the issue, but nothing they suggested helped. I'll keep looking for a better program.
- Summary
- Caveat emptor. Reviews of SNAP 8 seem good, but my experience shows it to be very flawed and difficult/impossible to use.
quite an original concept, many tools
woodhair- Pros
- many possibilities.
- Cons
- It start up together with windows. That can easily be changed by using msconfig
- Summary
- 10/10
TOO COMPLICATED

- Summary
- A frequently used and very useful utility.
This might be garbage
bjkwjk1323- Pros
- It captured video. Not expensive.
- Cons
- Will not let me edit the video as advertised. When I contacted Ashampoo support about this issue here was the reply : "Hello, you are not able to edit the videos captured with Snap. Thank you for your understanding. MfG/Regards Thomas Vesper Kundendienst | Support"
- Summary
- After careful evaluation of the screen capture software options out there, I chose to purchase Ashampoo Snap 6. This product is advertised on the Ashampoo website as being "the only software you will ever need"; Capture,Edit,Publish. I can capture and I can publish, but I can't edit. The menu bar which is supposed to be at the left side of my screen, won't appear. When I contacted Ashampoo about this issue their reply stated that "you are not able to edit video captures with snap" Huh? is this just an ill informed "support" person? Or did I get duped? I have sent additional inquiries to Ashampoo about this issue and will update accordingly if we can get the software to work properly.<br /><br /><span class='notifyMsg'> Updated </span>on Nov 13, 2013<p/>Shortly after writing this review I received a 2nd email from Ashampoo "support". Here is the reply: Hello, we are sorry for the misunderstanding. The sentence "capture, edit and publish screenshots and videos" should have been removed due to its misleading. As you can see in the US-translation of our site it has been removed. Here you will find the sentence "The only software you will ever need". https://www.ashampoo.com/en/eur/pin/0824/Multimedia_Software/Ashampoo-Snap-6 We have sent your feedback to our developers to change this. We may offer you a refund for your purchase if you want to. Please tell us your reference number so we can adivse it. The link posted in the response takes me back to the place where I bought this software initially. It clearly states in multiple places that the software allows users to edit.Also, the help file clearly shows screen shots of and speaks to edit functionality. Needless to say, I am going to accept the refund that was offered.
much more versatile than 'printscreen'...
jran1011- Pros
- Variety of options to cover any possible screen capture - video, webpage, selected area...
- Cons
- For my basic uses, no cons...
- Summary
- Some keyboards don't even have a PrintScreen key anymore! This solves all those problems...
Grab That Video!
gcapp99- Pros
- Performs as advertised for capturing Video with Sound.
- Cons
- Configuration is set for No Audio by default. Not a major deal to figure out the interface then check the Capture Sound box.
- Summary
- I needed to record a Webinar- Google suggested Camtasia and Replay products, but I really didn't want to spend $40.00 or more for the software. I own other Ashampoo software and have been happy with their stuff, and I vaguely remembered that they had a capture product from a promotional e-mail they sent me a while back. I went to their site and read about Snap 6 which sounded like it would do the job for me. Nice price too: $19.99 For kicks I Googled "Snap 6 coupon" and found a RegNow/DigitalRiver link and bought it for $10.39USD. Such a deal! SUMMARY: Snap 6 is a very useful & functional capture program. My need was to record a Webinar. I was able to define the portion of my screen I wanted to capture and the software worked perfectly. Kudos to Ashampoo for making some very cool software available at a very affordable price! Like anyone else I would have loved to get it for free, but on the other hand the price I paid was extremely reasonable and will hopefully encourage and enable them to develop new offerings. CONFIGURATION NOTE: I'm running Vista Home Premium on a webcam-equipped laptop. After I got Snap 6 to capture the audio as well as the video I discovered the microphone was also being recorded. Had to go to Control Panel to kill the volume on the mic and all is well.
Incredibly useful screen snapshot utility
- Pros
- Full-featured, works well and gets the job done
- Cons
- Confusing at first. It's not particularly intuitive
- Summary
- All in all it's a very useful utility but lack of intuitiveness makes it difficult for 1st time users.
