Pros
The first thing I like about Bandicam is the ease of use. The interface is so refined that it makes using the software a pleasant experience.
Video as well as sound quality are brilliant. It is very nice software for Streaming because of its quality and easy to operate.
The things that i like most about Bandicam are. Recording quality is very good.
Cons
Buying full version of Bandicam Screen Recorder is necessary otherwise it will only record for 10 minutes then stops recording.
I have pretty limited experience, but for quick and dirty jobs, it's just right.
Bandicam may be "light" due to its small size, but I did experience lag spikes during recording simulations or demonstrations or streaming something.
