Why choose Tango?

Automate repetitive browser work like data entry, cross-tab clicking, and form-filling, while your team stays in charge of the decisions.

You need to capture and explain what’s on your screen.

Key Differences

Tango and Snagit both turn captured steps into visual instructions. Here's how they differ.

Capture multiple paths and decision points in one workflow with Workflow Branching, so teammates can follow the path that applies to them.

Capture one linear path per guide. When a workflow branches, create and link to a separate guide for each path.

Walk your team through entire workflows, click by click, so they can complete the process without leaving the software they’re using.

Reference static guides or videos alongside the software, switching between the instructions and the process as you work.

Track step-level progress, completion, and drop-off to see how people move through a workflow and where they get stuck.

Export Snagit content to another platform to track process adoption, completion, or compliance.
