Overall Satisfaction with Camtasia
Camtasia is being used by my company to develop training videos that demonstrate ho to use systems and complete daily work procedures. These videos are edited to call-out key steps, system highlights, and best practices. It is also used to edit short interviews with leadership and other decision makers.
- Camtasia is easier to learn for beginner film editors than some other, more complex software.
- It comes with prefabricated tools that take minimal effort to use and create, such as the ability to highlight areas of the screen.
- You can add audio, image, and video tracks with ease.
- Camtasia does not have as many options as Adobe Premiere. It is a more basic video editing software.
- I would like some more options besides the prefabricated ones it provides.
- If you move the file for someone to use, the tracks can get jumbled. To fix this, you must first zip the file and then send it to someone to edit and/or use.
- Camtasia has helped our new employees with little to no video editing experience quickly develop this basic ability.
- It is easy enough to use that projects can be completed in a timely fashion.
Adobe Premiere has many more options and capabilities, but it is harder to learn than Camtasia. I recommend using it after some experience with a more basic software such as Camtasia. One feature example Premiere has that Camtasia does not is the ability to remove things from the background of your footage that you don't want visible in the final product.
