Capture Wiz Pro – The software which is somewhat close to SnagIt!

After reviewing screen capture softwares like SnagIt, I hardly expected any other software to impress me much but this one did!

CaptureWiz Pro is smart software with an innovative interface which seems to know exactly what a user wants. Let me elaborate on its smartness a little further.

Strengths

1. Interface
You might not like the default golden color of the small window that pops up when you start the software, but you will surely be impressed with its contents. It has a top panel with icons clearly listing the various ways you can obtain a capture from your screen. To add to your convenience, there is a comprehensive list of activities below which allows you to chose your action making life a little simpler for you

2. Features
I never expected this small window to be so affluent in features. The scroll capture feature is quite unique and so is its ability to capture audio only. The Frame capture tool makes capturing a region on the screen a far more user friendly experience. I also found its auto hide feature pretty useful. And yes, don’t forget to use its cool stickies tool!

3. Record of captures
It does not dump a captured image as soon as it is saved unlike other screen capture softwares. Its main window creates a strip of all images captured while the software is running.|

4. Tells you Format pros and cons
You got to give the makers a pat on their backs for coming up with this simple yet so useful idea. Most people, including those who are aware of the existing image formats are unaware of their pros and cons. CaptureWiz lists the pros and cons of each format when you try to save a file so that you can make right choice for yourself.

What More?

The software, although offers you resize,rotate and flip tools, does not comprise of a built in editor. A good editor embedded in this software will multiply its worth.

Bottom Line
I thought SnagIt was peerless. Was I wrong? Decide yourself!
