Overall Satisfaction with Camtasia

Our organization uses Camtasia in a number of different ways:
1. Recording product demos and walk throughs. This is one of our prominent use-cases. As we record a demo of every feature our platform offers. We can then use these videos to train new-hires, partners, etc.
2. Video editing - each video has different sections outlining the feature to describe its capabilities.
  • Screen recording - Use Camtasia avidly to record new product features and its capabilities. We then use these videos to train new-hires, partners, etc.
  • Ability to edit - Camtasia offers a variety of tools to edit the recording.
  • Intuitiveness - for someone with no experience in video editing, Camtasia's application is very easy to use and understand. Ramp up time is very short.
  • After a few times editing or saving a few copies, exporting the video can cause a loss in quality.
  • Special effects are limited
  • Ability to easily train new-hires, partners and VARs.
  • Ability to easily update existing recording with updated messaging, content, etc.
I have only used Adobe Presenter a few times. Camtasia has been my go-to tool for a few years now. Adobe's application did require a longer ramp-up time. It was not as intuitive to edit and update videos as it is in Camtasia. Camtasia is great for PMs who would like to record new product features, etc. Anyone who needs video recording and editing capabilities, but with little or no experience should use Camtasia.
One of the primary reasons for using Camtasia is creating product walk-throughs and overview videos. This allows us to easily show what the feature is, the capabilities and the value it brings to our customers. We then use these videos as training material, sales enablement materials and for marketing events. Camtasia is used throughout our organization. Anyone who is not a video editing pro, but looking for an inexpensive and intuitive video editing tool should try Camtasia.
