I like that Camtasia is very easy to use and offers so many resources for users. I recently got my certification with the Camtasia certification course, and I've realized that despite using it for maybe ten years, I've just been scratching the surface of what it can do. I also appreciate that Camtasia accommodates SCORM files, which is something I'm looking forward to exploring further for our new learning management system.

I do think that one area of enhancement could be that Camtasia could dip its toe into the learning management pool. That would seem like a natural progression since they already accommodate SCORM files. I would love to just use one platform all the way through if that were possible.

Simple to use. Easy to add basic animations and highlights. Built specifically for doing tutorials and screen recordings. Super helpful to be able to record and edit the mouse movement, and cursor shape and the clicking sounds. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I haven't learned a quick way to delete a section of one track and have the space made by the deleted section filled in. I can do the magnet on the track, but that messes a lot up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Camtasia is a great tool for anyone who wants to create instructional videos, especially if you’re looking for a straightforward way to record and put everything together. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Camtasia is great overall; however, the upload section could be improved. I often have to navigate through folders to figure out which one to use when uploading certain files, and it feels less straightforward than it should be. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The screen capture feature in Camtasia has been incredibly helpful for creating tutorial videos, both for internal use and for our clients. The workflow from capture to editing feels seamless, which saves a lot of time and makes video creation quick and straightforward instead of turning into an hours-long process.

Sometimes media files seem to get “lost,” and I can’t figure out why it happens or how to fix it. When it does, it ends up causing issues when I try to save. It might be something on my end that I’m not understanding, but it’s happened a few times now. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I think Camtasia is extremely easy to use. When I'm creating something, whether it's a video or a quick social media post, it's just so user-friendly. It's not difficult to get started or to keep using it. I can create a video very quickly, especially when I'm in a hurry. It's quick and easy to get started, and that makes it very valuable to me.

I think if they have more creative templates available, their audience would be a little larger. I know some of their templates are basic, so I find myself not using those very often. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I teach math and use Camtasia to record and edit video lessons for my students. I like the editing features most because I do not need to re-record an entire video when I make a mistake at the very end (some test reviews will be 60-90 minutes). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There isn't much I dislike. I have had to "google" how to do some editing in Camtasia, but I didn't read any getting started information before starting to record and edit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is easy to get started. I've tried other video editing programs before, but they were confusing to use. I decided to try again when i had to create some training videos. The breakdown of tracks and letting me drop & drag parts on top of each other is so easy. I can record a video of me training or upload a powerpoint and have it generate the audio (my favorite part). I was able to crank out several videos in one day! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It can get a little sluggish with large projects Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Camtasia is intuitive, and I’ve found it works well for users at all skill levels—not just instructional designers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The app lags and I keep running into issues with downloads. I’m also frustrated that the quiz results summary was removed. On mobile, downloads don’t seem to work properly, and I’ve noticed audio distortion as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I still believe that Camtasia is probably the fastest way to go from "idea" to "video" -- certainly it's the way that non-power users will find most intuitive. That ease-of-use does not come at the price of precision, and experienced users will find it easy get exactly what they want. Exports are easy and some built-in functionality (w/ Camtasia's smart player export option) will delight users who need to drop their videos somewhere outside of a CMS but retain key functionality (like chapters). Camtasia has made small improvements to the general UI and workflow have boosted my overall production speed and I'm generally pleased overall with how much I can do at such a high velocity. Additionally, thought I'm not a Camtasia Rev user (does not fit my use case), I appreciate having it in my back pocket if I would ever need to dramatically shift gears.

Animations are a big part of taking the dynamism of your video to the next level, and though Camtasia's "motion path" tool is adequate, it's not exactly slick. Also, I occasionally wish that Camtasia had some better text editing features, though I can appreciate why this hasn't been TechSmith's priority. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use Camtasia for internal training, external training videos, product demos, and marketing videos. It significantly reduces training time for clients. I like its ease of use and the extensive library of tutorials and webinars, which allow me to learn at my own pace and eliminate the need for support tickets on how to do something. The initial setup was 'easy peasy', making it my first choice without considering alternatives. I also find it helpful that Camtasia integrates with Snagit and Audiate.

Sometimes Camtasia crashes after an update. There may also be little bugs that I'm not aware of. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
