Descript
  • Transcription of internal presentations and web conferences. It's great for capturing and transcribing the audio from presentations, demos, etc. which can then be used to develop training materials, blog posts, etc.
  • Podcasts. Makes it really easy to record, edit, and publish video or audio podcasts.
  • Promotional videos. Streamlines and accelerates the process for developing videos.

I am constantly having to convert video files from one format to one that works throughout our Trust, adjusting the Codec. Uniconverter is great for this purpose, it is also useful in downloading videos from various websites.

Pros
Descript
  • I like the sidebar - breaking my scripts up into different "chapters" makes it easier to create quickly.
  • I like that it auto-corrects punctuation, capitalization, etc. as I polish the scripts.
  • It's easy for my team and my collaborators to read/listen, remark, and create useable transcripts.

  • Converts video files into different formats (CODECs), which is necessary for editing and for the output of finished files.
  • Lets you convert many characteristics of the video file, such as CODEC, frame rate, frame size, etc, which is great as different uses of video require files made to widely varying specs.
  • Lets you convert among many video CODEC, so you can make video fies for just about any need.
  • Uniconverter is also very useful in downloading video from many websites.

Cons
Descript
  • When editing a transcript it can get a little cumbersome, as a double click doesn't always do what you think it will
  • Some features aren't that intuitive (what is resize word gap) for beginners
  • A tutorial/wizard as soon as you sign up would be very useful

  • Uniconverter is working very well. I don't see anything missing for the converting function.
  • Maybe video editing could be more advanced but I did not miss it in the past.

Alternatives Considered
Descript
Descript is by far superior to the other editing software you can get on Apple computers. It's able to do a lot more and really save us tons of time. Other Adobe apps are great, but take a while to learn. Descript is very user-friendly, making it easy to start from day one with very little training.

I've used many products and while none are perfect, all except Wondershare conduct themselves appropriately and function within existing frameworks for customer service, warranty etc.

Return on Investment
Descript
  • I can get video completed much more quickly and cheaply
  • We can produce more video content because of the speed with which we can have a finished product
  • We can have shorter timelines for example I record on Monday and we publish on Tuesday which wouldn't be otherwise possible with other methods I've used
