Overall Satisfaction with Descript

We use Descript to edit all of our customer interviews and videos to be hosted inside eWebinar. We used to spend hours and hours on another video editing software and not only was it hard to learn, I could never get it to export in the same high resolution that I was editing in. Descript has saved us at least 10 hours of time per week. Taking editing time from an hour on something small to a few seconds.
  • Automatically generates a transcript.
  • Export snippets by highlighting text on the transcript.
  • Exports in the same hi-res quality.
  • Free recorder
  • Responsive support
  • Easily add pictures, shapes, etc. into the video.
  • Editing video elements by editing the transcript.
  • Easy to learn.
  • Doesn't have editing features that pros might require.
  • Auto generate transcript.
  • Export snippets easily.
  • Video and screen recorder.
  • Remove filler words.
  • Editing by editing text.
  • It saves at least 10 hours a week.
  • I no longer dread video editing and that is priceless.
Not only does Camtasia have a steep learning curve; everything that Camtasia takes 1 hour to do, but Descript would also do it in less than a minute.

For any startup that uses video in their business, Descript is a great way for anyone in the organization to use without bothering their team or hiring a contractor. It's great for demos, instructional videos, eWebinars, anything that doesn't require production-level editing. It's not going to be great for people who need video production and a lot of the other deep features that 20-year-old solutions may have. But it's also not made for that.
