Snagit and Storyline

Jan 30, 2018

Just wondering if people still find it necessary to have a screen capturing tool along with Storyline? What do you see as some of the benefits to having one and not having one?

I'm partial to MS Snip. It saves my snips in a library, as I suppose most other dedicated programs do. Being able to recall them is great for me, because I hate repeating work I have already done.

My general rule of thumb is that no snipping program can be used to create e-learning nearly as easy, nor as fast, nor as well as SL, and the converse is just as true. IF you need just a tiny bit of work done very fast and quality isn't that big a consideration, you can use SL to build simple graphics, simple video editing, etc. On the other hand, if it has to be complex or high quality, dedicated tools are hard to beat.
