Snapz Pro X ReviewVenerable Tool - Version: 2.1.5, 4/29/2009 01:53PM PST

Snapz has served me well over the years. I agree that it's getting long in the tooth especially since it does much of what Grab (which comes free with OS X) does, but has a better interface. I use it primarily grabbing movies. I primarily use Little Snaps or Voila for screen grabs since they have built in edit tools.

My biggest complaint is the inability to use newer apps to open the screen grabs in. It still offers Appleworks. It should allow me to use an app of my choice not theirs. I have started using Acorn for light work, other times I use Graphic Converter which the only other choice other than Preview that they offer that I have.

It needs an overhaul and feature targeted feature enhancements. One thing I would like to see is a menu bar icon to interact with the app. It is difficult to quit unless you have your secret decoder ring properly set.

Snapz Pro X ReviewVERY long in the tooth! - Version: 2.1.4, 4/10/2009 01:38AM PST

Sorry, but with the advent of amazing tools such as SCREEN FLOW for movie capture and even LAYERS or FREE tools such as JING for screen capture, I have no idea who could possibly still consider spending that kind of cash for THIS tool. It's comparatively SLOW and inflexible and doesn't use system level technology e.g. Core Video for amazing results like the first two aforementioned tools.

Snapz had it's days, but as far as I'm concerned, those days are LONG gone. At the very latest since Leopard.

If you need a truly great screen capture tools that are up to speed with TODAYS possibilities, then check out the tools above and spend a few bucks more and not regret it, unlike if you actually spent 79 bucks (ouch!!) on Snapz, which I in fact did a long long time ago, which I don't in fact regret, since like I said, it WAS a great tool in it's days.

The ONLY time I would say Snapz could be the way to go is if you actually STILL don't work with Leopard.

Snapz Pro X CommentaryBest tool for the job, but... - Version: 2.1.4, 4/9/2009 11:51PM PST

I've been using SnapzPro for years and it's superb in use in every way. Although I'm sure this release launches much faster than the previous one, it does appear to have one glitch for which I've just submitted a ticket to the support guys at Ambrosia and which reads:

"I just upgraded to version 2.1.4 If I check the 'Check for new versions at launch' option in Preferences then, on the subsequent launch I see a dialog that tells me that there's a new version available (2.1.4) with buttons that enable me to "Go to website" or "Cancel" and a list of "What's new". However, the about box tells me I'm running the new version 2.1.4! I also note that when I go back into preferences, the 'Check for new version at launch' box is now unchecked and so, of course, I don't see the dialog described above again unless I re-check it.

Tim.
