Even if I don’t use it for awhile when I return to using it there’s no huge learning barrier to become reacquainted. Second would be price. It was not cost prohibitive like some others. > > **Cons**: I don’t have anything. There are no dislikes from me. > > I started using Camtasia in the early 20 teens. It was a struggle because I was new to learning tools like this. I have used others, but remained with Camtasia. When updated versions came out they did not interrupt my ability to work or cause problems as updates can sometimes do. The tutorials make learning easy as they are clear and concise. And there are many of them\! ----- ### "Camtasia Video/Audio Software" — 5.0/5 > **gary** | *25 January 2024* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I especially like the ease of use, professional product look, and impact. You can find free online products that say they produce professional results, but it isn't true. The other issue is the optional add-ons like symbols and photo libraries. You can save your photos and logos within the library. > > **Cons**: Short learning curve but like anything that looks professional it takes a bit of time to become proficient. > > I have been using Camtasia since 2014. Each year, as presentation methods change the team at Camtasia has upgraded the software to meet the market demand. The software is updated as needed, and if you add the maintenance package, the following new version is included. My decision was based on getting by or having a professional presentation. ----- ### "Technical Support is an Issue at Techsmith" — 2.0/5 > **Scott** | *25 October 2024* | Chemicals | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10 > > **Pros**: Can produce videos on your PC. Easy to import audio and video files. > > **Cons**: Poor technical support. Software is not backward compatible. Projects created in versions before 2020 (\*.camproj) will not open with newer versions. The technical support group is not there on Fridays and the telephone hotline doesn't work. If you buy a Techsmith product, you will need to figure it out on your own. > > I enjoy using the product on my PC. Transferring projects from one PC to another is very difficult. ----- ### "Camtasia is an excellent program that is suitable for all computers" — 4.0/5 > **Anouar** | *10 March 2023* | E-Learning | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: basicValid for all computers, it does not require high specifications to be in a computerSupports all video quality formatsIt has the advantage of publishing a video from Camtasia directly to your YouTube channelLicense paid once per year, not every monthEvery time it evolves > > **Cons**: It does not have all the featuresAnything that is not in a download program must be downloaded from sourcesIts disadvantage is that it is not possible, for example, for one license to occupy more than one user, only for one user in one licenseThere are no big discounts > > My experience is excellent, but it is not enough when you reach a stage in which you must develop in your work, editing videos and marketing, and the program, as I said, does not contain all of it featuresI recommend it to people who have a small budget at the beginning stage, content creators on YouTube and work in general on the Internet ----- ### "Great Video Editing Software for Windows" — 4.0/5 > **Douglas** | *14 July 2022* | Insurance | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like the ease of use and drag and drop features the most on Camtasia. When I am editing or creating a video I usually add multiple clips together, and the drag and drop feature allows my video clip to fall into place right where I need it. The drag and drop feature is also great for text overlays or transitions and makes it much easier to edit videos and place your video/picture clips at the exact place it needs to be. Furthermore, the video editing features are great, and can definitely be a good windows alternative of IMovie. > > **Cons**: There is a limited selection of transitions, text overlays to choose from compared with other video editing softwares. Although I use the same text overlay feature every time, it would be good if there was more/more unique options when editing your video. Also when editing your video, sometimes it is hard to cut the few seconds and sometimes milliseconds out to create a perfect video. > > I've had a great experience with Camtasia so far. It has been a great resource to have when editing all my videos and creating new videos. It has great features, and is really to use from an user point of view. It also is very easy to train on and learn. Definitely a great alternative to IMovie. ----- Page: 1 / 19\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.za.com/software/133295/camtasia?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.za.com/software/133295/camtasia) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
