Hey all, super excited to be launching the new TechSmith Snagit 2018 🚀. Snagit is all about making it easy for people who understand a technology or interface to visually explain and document it for people who don’t. It’s been heavily adopted by tech writers, trainers, support agents...and plenty of others who work in and around software. For this new version we focused on a very specific pain point voiced by these folks: it’s really hard to keep visuals up to date, given the rapid pace at which technology changes. Snagit now has tools to edit and rearrange the contents of a screenshot or graphic, making it possible to do quick updates without having to stage the screenshot all over again or bug your designer for the files. Some of the new features in Snagit 2018: - Grab Text 📖 : copy text from a screenshot using OCR. Paste it into a spreadsheet or doc. - Smart Move 🚚 : text and objects are automatically identified in a capture and can be easily moved around; auto-fill replaces any “blank space.” - Text Replace ✏️ : after Smart Move finds text in a screenshot, click on it and edit the text and formatting - Snapping 🐢 : as you move text and objects around, they snap into alignment with the canvas and with other objects (Snapping is available now on Mac; coming soon on Windows) There’s a bunch of new tech under the hood that makes all this possible, such as computer vision, OCR, font matching, auto-fill. Our product manager, @chrismlarson, can nerd out with those who are interested in the details. Of course, you can also do many other things with Snagit 2018, like: - Mark up screen captures with smart-looking shapes and text - Blur or pixelate sensitive information - Grab tall or wide scrolling screens - Narrate a slide presentation or doc, as video (webcam optional) - Demonstrate a feature or a few steps via an animated GIF - Find and organize previous captures (auto-saved and tagged with metadata) - Share captures quickly via a link (numerous cloud drives supported), copy/paste, drag/drop, or integration with desktop and web apps Since people often ask about pricing...here’s some info on that. Snagit is a one-time fee of $49.95 for a perpetual license. No subscription required. One license can be used on two of your machines: Mac, Windows, one of each. Team discounts start at 5 licenses. Upgrades from any previous version are 50% off a new license. Add annual maintenance for about a buck a month to get new major versions as they’re released. We love to hear feedback and feature ideas so please give us a shout @snagit or you can contact me directly @fosteronomo or d.foster@techsmith.com. We can’t wait to hear your stories and see what you create with Snagit 2018!

Have used Snagit for two years now. Best product for a product person!

Pros:

Text grab and edit. Smart move.

Cons:

Upgrading from a previous version should be simpler.

Thanks so much for the kind words, Abhijeet, and for using the new version of Snagit! Which parts of the upgrade process felt most bumpy to you? We are always looking for how to smooth that out.

@fosteronomo Thanks for replying. It took me a while to realize I need to download snagit 2018 separately instead of simply downloading an update in-app. Also since it’s a new download I now have two versions of Snagit on the machine which means I need to delete the older one manually. Would love if there was a feature that detected and then requested for deletion of older versions. But honestly it’s a minor peeve. Still love the product!

Snagit is an old and trustworthy product, but its function updates are too slow. I hope there will be new functions!

I've used Snagit for many years and prefer it to all other screenshot apps I've used. It has robust enough editing tools to rule out the need for a second app for basic changes. Sharing/exporting has really been refined in the last few versions, and sending to Camtasia is seamless. I highly recommend.
