Kazam, alternative Linux à Snagit

Mis à jour le

Notre avis

Kazam is a lightweight, discontinued alternative that covers the basics of screen capture and recording. It suits users who need simple screenshots and short video clips without complex editing. However, it lacks Snagit’s robust annotation suite, color picker, and advanced export options. If you rely heavily on visual editing or professional documentation workflows, Kazam will feel limiting. For quick, low-effort captures on Debian-based systems, it works, but expect to handle post-processing in a separate image editor.

Ouvrir vos fichiers Snagit

Kazam does not open Snagit’s proprietary .snag files. It exports standard formats like PNG, JPEG, and MP4, which are universally compatible. If you have existing Snagit projects, you must export them as images or videos first, then import those files into your Linux workflow. There is no direct conversion path for Snagit-specific metadata or layered annotations.

  1. Install Kazam via your distribution’s package manager
  2. Configure keyboard shortcuts for quick capture and recording
  3. Test screen and window capture modes to verify functionality
  4. Set up audio input preferences for video recording
  5. Export existing Snagit assets as PNG or MP4 for use in Linux
