Ease of Use:  

FullShot is a pretty basic program that's easy to use once you've spent a little time with it. When you open the program, it loads with several toolbars, including the 'Capture Effects Settings' and 'FullShot Explorer' toolbars, and a main screen where you can edit and add special effects to your captures.

We highly suggest reading this product's user guide first thing, as some tools require learning to use and even beginning to capture screenshots is somewhat vague. We also didn't like how this program slowed our computer down, whereas other programs didn't.

Feature Set:  

Although we were unimpressed with FullShot's feature set, we did like that it used sound effects to let you know when you've captured a screenshot, which is fairly unique. This program also lets you customize your print page so your screen capture prints out exactly the way you want.

This program is missing many features, including voice commands, the ability to set your screen capture as wallpaper, the ability to email your screenshots, an image viewer and the capacity to import images from cameras or scanners.

Ease of Installation:  

We hit one small bump during installation of this product-a portion of the install deals with registration information, but says "optional" next to it. When we tried to leave it blank, an error message appeared saying that it was required. Other than this, installing FullShot was a breeze.

Help/Support:  

Inbit Incorporated offers support for FullShot in the form a user manual with built-in tutorials, as well as a tip section, FAQs and email support. They do not offer telephone support, however.

Capture:  

You capture images with this program through the capture toolbar, which is nothing more than several letter buttons, each representing a different capture: s=Screen, w=Window, f=Freehand, i=Interactive Scroll and so on.

You can capture screenshots of documents that are longer than your screen's view, such as web pages, spreadsheets, and more. There's also a color checker feature that tells you the exact RGB values of a color.

But, this product doesn't offer the ability to capture editable text, individual images, video game screenshots, Direct X Applications or video clips.

Edit:  

Overall, FullShot's editing tools aren't as powerful as our #1 product, but there are some nice points to this program too. For example, there is an undo and redo tab that's very useful, allowing you to flip back and forth between two options quickly. There are also some basic annotation tools, such as call outs, which you can conveniently click, drag and place on your screenshots.

Applying effects to your screen captures isn't so convenient. If you want to apply an effect, you have to go into the tools section, find the effect and then select it-versus simply clicking a button on the toolbar. Resizing images is also a cumbersome process.

Another thing we missed with this program is a pen or marker, so you can make quick notes or draw on your image freehand.

With a large number of highly useful tools, tons of screen capture methods and above-average support, FullShot by Inbit Incorporated is really a leader in its field. But, with a bigger price tag and fewer capabilities than our top-ranked SnagIt, FullShot simply misses the mark.
