Skitch is an app from Evernote designed to allow users to get points across with fewer words using annotation, shapes and sketches, so that ideas become reality faster, available at the Mac App Store. Skitch was acquired by Evernote in 2011.

Easy to use screenshot and annotation tool!
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
I use Evernote Skitch literally every single day and it is incredibly easy to use. As a product manager, I am constantly taking screenshots throughout the day to share with members of my team, to save for myself, to add to presentations etc. I use it for taking screenshots of our own product, of things I see that I want to remember later, and of things that help provide context to others. I have introduced several co-workers across departments to Skitch who have now adopted it.
