Camtasia Reviews

Summary: I use Camtasia daily in combination with other Authoring tools to develop eLearning courses. It is very easy to use and produces high-quality content. The certification course provides training for users and there are plenty of resources available to develop a user from beginner to expert.

Positive: Reasonable price, multi-use, user-friendly, certifications/training, multiple export options, beginner to advanced usage. In short, you can use Camtasia to do simple things or advanced things. I find it helpful to create eLearning courses along with other Authoring tools. They also continuously improve and update the software.

Negative: I like everything and use it every day to develop eLearning courses.

Summary: Still learning but finding that there are endless functions. Excited to continue to create impactful trainings.

Positive: End results are professional! Functionality allows for creativity and impactful trainings that keep engagement.

Negative: Challenging to learn to use but once it's mastered it's a fantastic platform.

Summary: I think Camtasia is a great software and I prefer it too more expensive video editing softwares like Premiere. I mainly use it for making instructional videos, I believe you can use it for a variety of purposes.

Positive: Very easy to use. Lots of training resources to help you use the software better. Easy to export files and share among colleagues. Easy to make high quality videos in little time.

Negative: Software occasionally has some weird quirks with audio. If you need to cut or rearrange a video you've already created, it can be cumbersome. There is a slight learning curve so it's not exactly a jump in and use right away software if you've never used video editors before.

Summary: I've enjoyed the product overall. The learning curve has a few bumps. Mostly, it was pretty smooth. I'd recommend the product.

Positive: I've found Camtasia fairly straightforward to use. As a Baby Boomer, I'm not quite as tech-savvy as my younger counterparts. With Camtasia, I've found that what I don't know I can find out fairly easily.

Negative: The files do take up quite a bit of hard drive space. I guess that's par for the course. I do feel like I get asked to upgrade quite a bit for free only to find out there's a time limit on that free.

Summary: I use it every day with very little issues at all. Simple to use, and effective. Makes pro looking output.

Positive: I love the simplicity of the of the software, especially the cut and paste workflow. I have access to virtually every video software, but this one is so simple, but makes pro output.

Negative: Could use webM compatibility. Would like a feature to merge files that have had segments cut out to handle them as one file.

Summary: It has worked quite well for me in creating video and screenshot videos that are informative, engaging and professional. It is easy to use for beginners and powerful enough for experts. It has many features and assets that can help you create the videos you need with minimal effort and time. It is also compatible with both Windows and Mac platforms, which is convenient for cross-platform users. For my recommendation this platform is very useful for anyone who needs a video and screen capture software that can do more than just record your screen. Whether you're a teacher, trainer, marketer, or content creator, Camtasia can help you create videos that communicate your message effectively and impressively.

Positive: Camtasia has a powerful and versatile video editor that allows you to edit your recordings with drag and drop ease. You can trim, split, trim, zoom, pan, rotate, or speed up your clips, as well as add transitions, annotations, animations, effects, subtitles, quizzes, and more. You can also use pre-built video templates or create your own custom templates to save time and ensure consistency.

Its interface is simple and intuitive that makes it easy to record from your screen, webcam, microphone, or any other audio or video source. You can also import PowerPoint slides, images, videos, or other media files to enhance your recordings.

Camtasia has a huge library of royalty-free assets that you can use in your videos, such as music tracks, sound effects, icons, backgrounds, motion graphics, and more. More assets can also be accessed with a subscription to TechSmith Assets for Camtasia.

The screenshot function is of high quality that records the screen in Full HD resolution with smooth frame rates. One can also adjust the capture area, resolution, frame rate, audio settings, cursor effects, and more before or during recording.

Being able to export is really flexible and reliable that allows you to produce videos in various formats and sizes for different platforms and devices. Videos produced on this platform can also be shared directly to YouTube, Vimeo, Google Drive, Screencast.com or other online destinations.

Negative: Camtasia is not cheap software. It has a high cost for a single user license, with an optional renewal fee per year to get the latest updates and support, these options should be considered when purchasing this platform if it is profitable to pay for updates.

Camtasia may not be suitable for advanced video editing or animation projects that require more sophisticated tools and effects. It's primarily designed for screenshots and how-to videos that don't need a lot of editing or post-production.

Camtasia can sometimes experience bugs or crashes that can affect recording or the editing process. I advise saving your work frequently and checking for updates regularly to avoid losing your progress or data.

Summary: I love using this for making videos into something special for youtube, with a nice intro, and editing out awkward parts. Like anything, there's a learning curve, but it's great once you get the hang of it.

Positive: Subscriptions can eat a business alive...I miss software that can be paid as a one-time payment - and thank goodness Camtasia is one of those softwares. Much smoother than iMovie.

Negative: It takes a fairly powerful processor, and even on my M1 iMac, it crashes occasionally, but that's video editing for ya (at least for a civilian like me...I'm not an editing pro).

Summary: Overall, I have enjoyed using Camtasia. It is a powerful tool that has helped me to create high-quality videos. The software is easy to use and has a wide range of features that allow you to create professional-looking videos.

Positive: I like the ability to easily create videos with Camtasia. The software is easy to use and makes it simple to add text, audio, and video to create professional-looking videos.

Negative: I didn't like that Camtasia was difficult to use and required a lot of time to learn how to use it properly. Additionally, the exporting process was often difficult and produced low-quality videos.

Summary: Camtasia is full of tools that make my work easier on a daily basis and have allowed me to achieve very good results. I can stop working on my projects and reopen them whenever I want to continue and it doesn't crash like other cheap programs.

Positive: I like it mainly because it is so easy to use that you can get quality results without being an expert in the area of video editing. It allows you to add shapes, arrows, text, define the duration and position in the video, etc. Also, it has well-selected and functional audio effects, noise reduction, fade in and fade out.

Negative: Every time I use Camtasia I fall in love with it even more, it really is a great platform and I have nothing negative to say about it. I am very satisfied with how it works so far.

Summary: I use this tool every day in all blogs, the annotations is what makes me continue using the application. It is very easy to take quick screenshots. This tool is an excellent option to create GIFs.

Positive: I like being able to copy the video link and include it in my email, it's very useful for taking notes on the fly. It allows me to capture what I need and post the file directly, the app automatically stores the screenshot. I like the ability to capture parts of the page as a video.

Negative: I wish there was support for Linux, it would be an even more complete tool. Sometimes it can take a while to take a screenshot and save it.

Summary: I used it to create marketing materials, I've used all the major screen recording apps. The built-in effects are great. It's a one-stop video creation solution.

Positive: I like that there are a lot of effects and resources available, the tool is designed to be easy to use. I love that it is extremely easy to use. The screen recording capability is amazing. The layout of the app is pretty easy to understand.

Summary: I've used a couple other editing software's, but none of them have even come close to Camtasia's level.

Positive: I love how easy it makes it to record and edit my videos. It really is a great software for what I use it for.

Negative: I don't like that Camtasia Assets is a subscription, instead of a one time payment.
