Yes, bard snare does stop them dead.
High level druid snare stops them in their tracks too.

It's working as intended.

Lower level snares never completely stopped their movement.
It certainly did. The lvl 1 Druid Snare just last pretty short, so it has often run out at the end of fight if you started pulling with it.

Yes, Ensnare has a higher snare value but not very much, and last much longer, but all Snare type spells makes mobs stop moving at around 8% hp. They do this because the snare effect + stat loss (like players under 25% hp) makes them immobile. They are technically still fleeing, but not able to move.
I don't know how it works codewise. It's just a guess that maybe either the snare % is set too low, or mobs may be loosing too little mobility when going under 25% hp.
