Teller Ugis, I have Ashampoo Snap 2018 and am extremely happy with it and it's features.
How about trying software first before slamming it!
Yes, I am expecting down votes for slamming Mr. Popular here so have at me.

I confirm : stupid interface.

1. Starting from the System Tray, I need to look in the middle of a huge list of features to find the command I want, Capture Region. It should be very near the top. It certainly should not come after Capture Scrolling, which is an advanced feature.

2. Then I can't activate this right away, because there's a cascading menu offering me other options, that I will never use. Apart from the most obvious : Capture Free Rectangle Region (what complicated language !). That's 4 clicks, just to activate that very basic screen grab.

3. The other options, I don't even understand what they do. What's a Custom Region ? How is Custom different from Free ?

4. Now, OK, I drag the friggin' "region" I need to snap. The "region" is isolated in a dark background. And then ? What do I do ? No hints. No indications. Nothing. I right-click on the "region". The "region" disappears. I have to start all over again. This time, I correctly guess I have to click on the "region". Can't you write on the blasted screen : click to copy, or something like that ? Most other screen grabbers do that.

5. OK. Now, the screenshot opens in the editor. And then ? What am I supposed to do ? There are a hundred icons all around, none of them intuitive.

6. I want to draw a border around my screen grab, because, you know, it's white. So if I paste it on a white background = no good. Absolutely basic requirement. I click on the Apply Border icon. It doesn't apply a border. It opens a menu, with bizarre options I can't understand. OK, suppose I keep the defaults. How do I get out of this ? How do I "apply border" ? There's one button, and it says "Close". I don't want to close, I want to apply border. So I close, because that's the only way out.

7. There's no way to know whether the border has, indeed, been applied. Now I want to do something very complex, you see, and paste this screen grab in a document of mine. So I right-click on the image, and fortunately, there's a Copy to clipboard option there. (But if I point on other parts of the screen grab, there is another context menu, without Copy, but with totally obscure commands.)

8. Then what am I supposed to do ? This friggin' editor window is occupying the whole screen. I can't minimise it or toss it to the side. There's no standard Windows buttons on the top right of the windows, because I suppose you're smarter than everybody. So I try to close it by clicking on the huge red x.

9. Now you're asking me whether I want to save all changes or discard all changes in opened files. I don't know. What opened files? I didn't open any files. Why are you interfering with my work ? For the time being, I just want to paste the bloody screenshot in a bloody document to make sure I got it right, and make sure you put the bloody border around it.

10. So I click either of the two buttons, Yes or No, and I don't see any difference in what happens next.

11. Then finally, I can paste the screenshot in my document, and... no, there's no "applied border" there.

I order to reproduce these steps and write about them, I have had to redo them from the start for each single step, because the editor window doesn't stay up there, like a standard Windows window. You can't leave it in the background, and come back to it later. It just goes away.

Absolutely terrible interface and workflow. Window 7 Snipping Tool is way better than this, for Chrissake. It does all of the above in a completely intuitive way.

Why can't you build upon your ancestors, and do something better, instead of destroying everything they did, and build up an unusable monster because "features" and "power" ? What power ? There's no power in it if it's unusable.
