HyperSnap 7.23.03

HyperSnap Editor's Review

Capture screens and text with this must have graphics utility.

If you're a techwriter creating help files, a training creating manuals or anyone who needs to capture portions of your screen or text you can't necessarily copy and paste, then you need to take a serious look at HyperSnap. It’s a screen and text capturing utility for Windows.

HyperSnap is the fastest and easiest way to take screen and editable text captures from any part of your Windows screen. HyperSnap combines the power of a first-class screen capture application with an advanced image editing utility.  It's perfect for capturing images and normally uncapturable text that you want to include in things like Help systems, online tutorials, manuals, presentations, marketing materials, Web pages, emails, etc. It's easy to use, and does a really great job of capturing screen items you thought might be inaccessible.

Pros: Complete screen and text capturing solution.

Cons: Expensive for a screen capture program.

Conclusion: HyperSnap is one of the best screen capturing utilities available on the market. Its small, fast, light, easily accessible and easy to use. With it, you can capture just about anything visible on your screen, whether it's text, or some graphical screen element.

There are very few programs on the market in this class of utility. For what HyperSnap does, it's one of the best available. The fact that as of this writing it costs $40 USD is unfortunate. While it is good at what it does, $40 USD is quite a bit for a screen capturing utility, no matter how good it is. However, it you have to have a tool like this, HyperSnap is likely one of your best choices.
