Summary: My overall experience with snip & sketch has been positive, particularly for quick & straightforward screenshots tasks.

Positive: Its one of the main strength is its simplicity which provides easy to use interface for capturing screenshots. The tool's efficiency in quickly capturing & editing screenshots makes it convenient option for in the fly image annotations.

Negative: Advanced editing features are relatively basics compared to its peer competitors.

Summary: My overall experience says that Snip & Sketch proves to be a handy & Straightforward tool for capturing & annotating screenshots from screen.

Positive: Its main feature is its very simple to use, Anything you need to cut & save from screen its just a snip away with this software. Also the various screenshot options from full screen to free cut gives great versatility for different capture needs.

Negative: It only contains basic annotations for captured edits, if it could have those advanced options also then it will seem perfect.

Summary: Less than optimal. Led me to reach alternatives such as ScreenRec and Greenshot etc. Shame that Microsoft did not create a full tools menu.

Positive: Seems intuitive and easy to use. Has a ruler and protractor (but they do seem buggy). Liked the ability to save and clip and paste easily the annotated images.

Negative: Could not, despite internet research, remove the overlaid ruler (or protractor) from the screenshot file, nor could I erase just one drawn object created by using those two tools. I uninstalled and reinstalled. No other suggestions found. Feb 2022.

Summary: Use an alternative product if you cannot live with Snipping Tool - otherwise use Snipping Tool instead and don't bother with this.

Newer is not always better, and this is true in this case.

Positive: Comes with less security vulnerabilities as Snipping Tool. Other than that there is absolutely nothing to recommend this except that it comes bundled with Windows.

Negative: Awful design and less intuitive than the Snipping Tool it replaces.

Summary: Great except it's not useable. Microsoft has known about this issues since mid-2021. Why has it not been fixed in 2023?

Positive: Very easy to use with intuitive controls. Simple, but very useful. Nothing that you don't need in a screenshot and editing tool.

Negative: Freezes my computer and causes me to hard reset, losing any work that was unsaved.
