Pros

“The ability to record interactively, import existing content in terms of audio files, images, and videos easily supports branding and pre-existing media. ”

Jamie N.

Trainer and Administrator

“Pricing is absolutely reasonable for what you get out of it, starting as low as approximately $50 CAD per year for basic tools, up to $825 CAD per year for their AI-enabled suite which includes all their stock assets, transcript generation, multi-language support, and much more”

Trainer and Administrator

“It helps me produce client-ready software overviews much faster than traditional video editors do, and features like cursor smoothing and callouts add a polished, professional feel without requiring a lengthy editing process.”

Pros

“Deceptive double payment subscription renewal practice of auto-renewing and charging your credit card again.”

“The ability to pace itself to the music saves me so much time, and the uploading of my own music is great!”
DA

Diana A.

Technology Teacher

“The limited size of video you can upload to edit.”
MS

Melissa S.

CEO

Cons

“It also lacks the advanced editing capabilities you find in other software similar to it.”
JP

Jean-Pierre N.

Instructional Designer

“The audio recording is terrible, I don't like how the license is tied in with a version so in order to collaborate across teams, everyone has to be on identical versions, I also don't love having to edit an old Camtasia project as a project file has a ton of directories associated and can get corrupted very easily.”
MB

Monica B.

Product Manager

“Oh, and one of the worst things I experienced so far is, that in one of my Camtasia recordings, my voice kept recording but the screen simply stopped recording.”

Leon R.

Cons

“Never could resolve my issue after weeks of trying and often getting responses unrelated to my question.”
