### "So easy to use!"

June 14, 2023

5.0

Very good. Taking screenshots was never this easy!

Pros

Greenshot is so very easy to use! With one click all the possibilites are within reach. When you dive a little deeper you will notice that it has so many more functions than you initially expect.

Cons

I do not really have any remarks regarding Greenshot. It is a produc that does what you expect of it.

### "Portable, free, and easy to use."

October 9, 2021

5.0

It is a great tool with advanced features that allow to make screenshots in a very fast, easy, and efficient way and even share them on the platforms like Jira. It also has some interesting features like the sequence number tool, blur, etc that make it stands out.

Pros

Obfuscating tool, the sequence tool (if that is the right name for the tool - every time you click, it leaves a numerical sequence, indicating steps), and the share plugins definitely come in advantage over its competitors. I also like the option to open an already existing file. With many other similar tools, you need to open the image and make a screenshot of it, if you want to annotate it. Greenshot allows you to use an already existing screenshot. On top of everything, it is portable and free.

Cons

It is kind of outdated based on the UI (definitely not the features it provides though). Sadly you can't do video recordings, only screenshots

### "Positiver Gesamteindruck"

January 23, 2023

5.0

Vorteile sind eine einheitliche Markierung von Screenshots für die Scrum-Teams, damit die nicht immer unterschiedlich aussehen.

Pros

Das Tool Greenshot macht einen sehr guten Gesamteindruck, für die Bearbeitung von Screenshots. Sowohl die Nummerierung als auch die Markierung von Inhalten funktioniert super und ist sehr user-freundlich. Wir benutzen das Tool, da es von einem Kollegen empfohlen wurde, es ist kostenlos und bisher gabs keine Probleme.

Cons

umständliches einfügen von Screenshots von Handy

### "A great little tool for everyday use"

February 11, 2022

5.0

Greenshot is a quick and easy way to create screenshot and apply labels, numbers and highlights. Good experience overall.

Pros

Ease of use, works well with Windows, perfect for basic editing

Cons

Sometimes you can't open more screenshot at once in the Editor

### "Love at first screenshot"

February 14, 2023

5.0

Greenshot is not just better than innate screenshot tools, but easier and more powerful. I use this little application a dozen times a day to communicate efficiently via screen shots. Also, when annotating the screenshot the highlighter tools and shape tools make it look professional and clean. Unlike Windows Snip where the mouse leaves you looking like a 5-yr old drew on the directions.

Pros

The obscure tool allows me to quickly and easily show my tech support team what's going on, without the hassle of encrypted mail, because I can obscure all PHI in moments.

Cons

There's nothing I don't like about this software.

Reason for choosing Greenshot

It's just plain better.

### "Fun Tool"

November 12, 2022

5.0

I really like it, it has several functionalities and I'm enjoying learning them

Pros

It great to be able to do so many things besides just a screenshot

Cons

I'm still figuring out things but I wish I could do a screenshot with just one click. Maybe I can and just haven't figured it out yet

### "Screen Capture Program is Great"

September 23, 2021

5.0

It's always open and running and it never causes problems.

Pros

Its really easy to capture menus and sub-menus. That feature alone was worth the $$.

Cons

I haven't had any reason to not be happy with Greeshot.

### "The most feature rich screen capture tool"

January 8, 2022

5.0

Pros

1\. The app is very quick to setup. 2. Has the option to add a camera click sound at time of capture which helps the user to know that the capture has been taken. 3. The apps to open the output file can be chosen. 4. Many Image formats available for the captured picture. 5. Free software.

Cons

I have not found anything to dislike in the application as it has all the features that a screen capture tool can offer.

### "One of the best screen capturing app"

July 7, 2021

5.0

One of the reliable screen capturing apps and better than built-in Windows Snipping tool

Pros

1\. Easy to use and setup. 2. Capture options regarding the area of the screen are there cecause of which users can select an area to be captured and it also supports full screen snap. 3. Good customisation options regarding the capturing among other tasks.

Cons

It can incorporate screen recording feature also in the future if it is possible.
