## Reviews

### "Excellent software for beginners" — 5.0/5

> **Lopaze** | *04 April 2018* | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Screencast is a digital recording of computer screen output, also known as a video screen capture, often containing audio narration. There's a free version.
> 
> **Cons**: Saves recordings to WMV only and no webcam recording. You have to buy pro account to really get the features and benefits of software.
> 
> Great software for the money...

-----

### "Very useful" — 5.0/5

> **CHRISTOPHE** | *12 April 2019* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Very useful to record your screen, videos or virtual events such as webinars.
> 
> **Cons**: Sometimes it's not very easy to use and it's better to try it before an event

-----

### "Works just fine. Could use some attention." — 3.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *24 July 2018* | Internet | Recommendation rating: 3.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: This is affordable and simple to install solution for screen capture and video sharing. I like to use the software for capturing video tutorials and explanations to accompany my email clarifications.  It is conveniently accessible and ultimately does the trick. It is nice to have the options to save or upload and share a link.
> 
> **Cons**: This is not always compatible on mobile. Some time the uploads for videos freeze and must be recorded again. Also, the selection of the screen that you wish to record is sometimes confusing and I have managed to record nothing but my voice. Overall, it does the trick but I wouldn't be able to confidently recommend.
> 
> Quick way to share video tutorials.

-----

### "Web Based Video Tool" — 5.0/5

> **Andrew** | *10 July 2020* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Screencastify allows you to easily record your computer screen, webcam, or combination of both and upload to various places.
> 
> **Cons**: The video editor is still in beta, so I know it is being worked on, but there are some basic cropping tools that could use work to make it a true competitor in the space.
> 
> Overall Screencastify in a strong tool to record videos. As a teacher, they provided the Premium version for free during COVID for a few months and it assisted in my online teaching.

### "Simple Screen recording solution" — 4.0/5

> **Guy** | *26 February 2021* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Great for running software demos, recording videos of presentations, and creating videos direct from browser or other app screens, with or without face camera embedded. Upload to Drive and YouTube, with some limited editing features
> 
> **Cons**: Editing features are a little limited, in my opinion, but for the price, it's not a big issue. it gets the job done
> 
> Recording short presentations (and longer ones) to present as promos, webinars, etc.
