## Review summary

Users praise Zoho Annotator for its strong annotation tools and ease of use, and many like its full-page screenshot capability. The most common complaints are that annotations are applied to a captured copy rather than the live page, and that full-page captures can be inconsistent or crop on certain sites or high‑resolution displays.

### Pros

- Easy to use and well-liked — several reviewers call it their new favorite or ‘brilliant’
- Can capture long/scrolling/full-page screenshots (reported as a key feature by multiple users)

### Cons

- Does not annotate the live webpage — annotations are applied to a captured copy of the page (mentioned in several reviews)
- Full-page/scroll capture is inconsistent — users report it fails or crops pages on some sites and high-resolution (4K) displays
