Clips ReviewMissing Features - Version: 1.5, 9/4/2009 11:26AM PST

This app sucks! You can't even create a clip in the application, you actually have to copy or cut it from somewhere else! And editing a clip? NOPE! Sorry! This app is for the birds!

Clips ReviewCrapware at its finest. - Version: 1.4, 8/17/2009 03:26PM PST

Well I am very sorry I paid for this.

Bogs down my system to no end (and I am running a MacBook Pro (mid 2009, unibody) 2.53 with 4 gbs of RAM so its not what you would call a slow system) and it takes forever to boot up when I have this program auto start upon log in.

It, by default runs in the 64 bit mode and even changing it so it would open in the 32bit mode didn't solve the slow down/hanging problem.

Trying to force quit this program was useless (thank the gods for Terminal and Activity monitor).

Lots of eye candy within the program but not a lot of use (PTHPasteboard has the same

functionality without the overhead/eye candy).

Steer very clear of this program (and if I could get my money back I would).

Clips ReviewMight be good, not sure - Version: 1.4, 7/23/2009 03:43AM PST

Crashed immediately on installation, then crashed again when it ran, and then again when I clicked on the button in the menu bar. Contacted the developers, no reply. Contacted them again, no reply. Deleted the application. Might be good, though I can't be sure. It does seem a little too expensive, given the quality of the app and the level of support.

Clips ReviewTime hath "depotentiated" - Version: 1.3, 4/13/2009 10:08AM PST

Similar to the history that plagues ScreenFlow, what was once an intriguing idea with seeming potential has stagnated to the point of silliness. Clips was a one-pump chump.

Clips ReviewLousy Tech Support - Version: 1.3, 2/23/2009 07:08PM PST

I believe this is an excellent product. However, one of the ways I "judge" a product is by the developer's tech support. These people provide lousy support. After using it on a trial basis, I submitted a request for tech support on an issue. It took several days to get a response. The response was short, cryptic and unprofessional. I felt like the technician was simply trying to brush me aside with a quick response, just to cross me off his "To-Do" list. This has gone on for several weeks - one question or request for clarification after another, with 3-4+ day's wait between responses, each of which does not really address my issue. For this reason alone I can only give them a D- grade. By the time you get any technical questions finally answered, your trial period will be over and you will be left, alas, unfulfilled! Their company name, Conceited Software, certainly does not reflect anything to do with their tech support!

Clips ReviewThank you Clips, it's been too long. - Version: 1.1.1, 10/20/2008 11:57PM PST

It's been too long since I've seen a Mac OS X application this good and with this amount of potential. I don't know if it's that there are a handful of Windows developers that have migrated to Mac OS X development or what but there's been a drought of the once healthy pool of clever Mac apps. With Leopard debuted I knew that 10.5 would really shine once developers started leveraging the newer features. Clips has made fine start and it can only get better. This is an awesome little application that landslides all the other miserable attempts at OS X clipboard utilities. Give me a quick jot feature (to write my own snippets quickly to the clipboard and I'm all aboard.

Clips ReviewA "Light (less expensive) Version" would serve me just fine! - Version: 1.1, 10/9/2008 10:25AM PST

The only thing I really need is having all the custom clipboards available under the Menulet; as drop-out lists and an organizer to move/edit and rename clippings. A lot of folks just don't use or like dashboard-like panels.

My suggestions are allowing for customization of what is shown under the Menulet. To make that Menuletlist shorter and have more space for the custom clipboards.
Everything except "Quit" should be under the "Preferences" tab. The "Application" and "Spaces" list should be optional. I don't see a use for them and they take up space under the Menulet.

Great would be if individual clipboards could be password locked, for storing sensitive info.

Overall I think the application is nice as it needs no application windows or floating panels if desired. I hate opening an application to access clippings, like many of the other apps require.
I still miss iSnip, but Clips could easily replace it if it allowed for a little more customization.

Thanks for your work!

Clips ReviewNearly perfect! - Version: 1.0.1, 9/14/2008 11:01AM PST

WOW!! This is the way a clipboard should work. None of the “other” clipboard enhancers even come close. Works almost like Dashboard. Only drawback is that there is CURRENTLY no hot corner support.
