I haven't used Camtasia much, but it's the alternative for teachers using PC systems. It seems very popular among the instructors. We have received video exports from Camtasia to edit in Adobe Premiere. Another way we have done screen recordings is a combination of QuickTime …
Chose ScreenFlow
We looked at things like Loom and all those other screen recorders, but Screenflow is just so much more powerful. It can do everything we want it to and more, even things like Chroma Key (green screen), text on video, transitions, all that. It's a pretty great software for …
Chose ScreenFlow
screenflow is much easier, and less expensive as well. Anyone can make a screen record using quicktime, but the tools that are included help you polish off your content end to end.
Chose ScreenFlow
Camtasia is a strong competitor to screenflow. Camtasia has a bit more functionality. screenflow is less expensive and does exactly what I need it to do. screenflow doesn't have any bells and whistles, Camtasia does. I prefer screenflow because it is very straightforward to use …

Screenflow offers a clean interface and intuitive tools like I have not seen across other video editing products, often times because of the many complexities that are delivered with video editing software. I have used many many video editing tools in my past and this one …

  1. Beginning with Adobe Premiere Pro - which I still use, it is a computer-power consuming product and has many more options for video production that are needed for training videos. There have been a few times where I have used Premiere Pro and taken the video and added it to …
Chose ScreenFlow
While loom is the fastest, it lacks editing power. Loom is best suited for quick communication. Camtasia is the only direct competitor I'm aware of, but it's much more expensive and not as easy to use. The only benefit of Camtasia is that it has superior text on screen …
Chose ScreenFlow
I haven't personally used Camtasia but was informed by multiple people who have that it is much harder to use than Screenflow is which is one of the main reasons we moved away from using it.
Chose ScreenFlow
While Final Cut Pro X is definitely more full-featured, the learning curve is also considerably steeper. Also, as far as I can tell, Final Cut does not have the built-in capability to record my computer screen. If you are a hardcore video editor, Final Cut is the way to go. …
Chose ScreenFlow
Adobe Premiere Pro is the golden child of video editing software, and sadly screenflow cannot truly compare. However, screenflows ability to capture video/ audio from internet sources is the best reason to purchase.
Chose ScreenFlow
ScreenFlow is quick and easy. The interface doesn't seem complicated like other tools I've used in the past and it works offline which is a benefit if you need to work offline using screen recorded footage.

ScreenFlow is well suited to the creation of short video projects. When the project becomes longer than 10 or 15 minutes, the application seems to bog down independently of the configuration of the hardware on which is running. if you want to create animations, this is not the application to use

StepShot is excellent for organizations of any size. Whether you're a solo-entrepreneur who has contractors occasionally help out or a Fortune 500 company, StepShot can help. It offers options to export to Word, PDF, PowerPoint, HTML, WordPress, and even Confluence. With so many output options available, StepShot is excellent for any organization, no matter how simple or complex their document structure is.

Pros
  • Screenflow easily records your desktop video and/or audio, with functionality that works even across multi-monitor setups.
  • The program has really incredible features for basic cutting and editing of the capture within screenflow once it is done.
  • The program has an impressive amount of options for expecting different formats of video and audio. I'm most impressed by the lossless audio and uncompressed video formats that give the best possible quality for importing into video projects.

  • The annotations options are fantastic. You can adjust exactly where you want your mouse cursor to show up (if at all) and can create all images for step-by-step
  • It has a really nice interface, simple to use.
  • It's customizable - you can choose full screen, active area, etc.

Cons
  • You have to use specific keys to stop recording and if you forget them you have to close out the application to stop recording.
  • It's a fairly basic software, it would be nice to see them add new functionality, but they haven't done much to improve it over the years.

Usability
It's simple to set up and use. The editing features are laid out in an easy to understand way making it the perfect go-to tool for a novice video editor and an advanced one. I will use ScreenFlow at times over other bigger tools like Adobe Premiere because it's quicker to make changes to videos.

It works well and fits into my workflow. The tools are much easier and straightforward to work with. Other video editing tools like Adobe Premier or Final Cut Pro are simply too complicated for this type of task.

I have only run into an issue once, which I believe was due to a newly released feature (cloud storage). I was running into issues with the functionality on my Mac. The team was incredibly helpful in both troubleshooting the issue by jumping on screen sharing sessions, as well as providing multiple releases for me to test to fix the problem!

Alternatives Considered
  1. Beginning with Adobe Premiere Pro - which I still use, it is a computer-power consuming product and has many more options for video production that are needed for training videos. There have been a few times where I have used Premiere Pro and taken the video and added it to what I do in Screenflow. Additionally, Premiere is a subscription-based purchase / rent - which I am not fond of whatsoever. Screenflow is my first choice.
  2. Adobe Captivate is again, too much offered - hence the higher pricing and then the complexities that are not necessary. I can accomplish all that I need with screenflow and at a more reasonable price ... AND it doesn't crash -- in four years it never has.
  3. I keep Snagit on my computer but find it is better for still image / screenshots vs video screen capturing. Screenflow is much smoother, quicker, and complient.
  4. Camtasia has not produced a "Good" Mac version - Screenflow is much better in producing what I want, speed, and compatibility. Not to mention, major price differences.

While StepShot provides us with more options for modifying our screen recording and adding helper information for our audience, iSpring is a little more accessible since you can connect directly to YouTube for videos. Since most of our work doesn't require a video tutorial, we are happy with StepShot, but iSpring, like many other screen recorders, is a little more "well rounded" when it comes being able to connect our guides with our intended audience.

Return on Investment
  • As an education, the best way to answer this is that my students improve after viewing my videos. Their success IS my business.
  • It is, as stated before, a time saver. My ROI is more time than I had prior to using it.
  • I save funds by not having to purchase applications that are priced extremely higher.

  • This has saved us MANY HOURS in either walking clients through processes in person or having to create a one-off guide through taking screenshots and creating our own documents with the screenshots hand placed.
  • Client satisfaction is high when they receive these guides. It is documentation that they can refer to at anytime that is personalized to their use or individual needs.
