Capturing screen shots is one of the best ways to convey and retain information. But it’s always been such a nuisance that the reality just never lives up to the promise. Exia makes screen capture and annotation a snap. The result is that bugs, tasks and stories have much richer information and are therefore easier to track, share and complete. The work gets done faster.
At Exia we’ve been working on a site for a customer that requires email relay through the hosting servers. That means we have to look up forum support information. Why not capture a snapshot of the correct information while we’re there and annotate it?
Of course we can also do a quick copy/paste of the info into the workitem details so that it’s searchable:
You can do either one or both. The great thing is that we’ve worked hard to get the process down to just a few seconds, so that screen capture is fun.
At Exia we are now using Exia every day to manage our own work. Capturing screen shots as we go has become an indispensable tool that helps us work faster and more accurately. It’s hard to imagine now what it was like working before we could grab images of everything we’re doing so easily and have them automatically shared among the team.
I hope you enjoy this feature as much as we do!
