iMovie is a user-friendly option for simple audio and video editing, but it requires a Macintosh which many offices may not have. For audio-only editing, Audacity is a free, open-source, accessible option with plenty of tutorials and plugins available for users. They both have built-in functionality for recording audio as well as editing it, but again Audacity is free and easy to use once you know what you're doing.

I've never tried any alternatives other than using my phone to record. I'd much prefer to record audio clips than to record videos.

In a sense, this is apples and oranges. The one is lightweight and free, the other is expensive and feature-rich. We use both for different situations and skill levels.
