I can see being able to create in-video quizzes useful, though I haven't actually needed to do this. Pan-and-zoom is easy to do once you know how, nice and easy to split and trim clips and edit clip speed. > > **Cons**: Can't play back at half-speed for editing - you can speed up playback, but it would be really helpful to me if I could play it slower to pinpoint moments without having to do it frame by frame. I don't find some of it very intuitive - I managed to get the audio captioned on the audio track once, which was really helpful, but I've never managed to since. I find it really hard to zoom in to the right place on the canvas and there don't seem to be scroll bars to move it once I'm zoomed in, so I end up zooming in and out again and again to try and see the area I want to. I waste more time than I'd like battling with the UI. > > There are real gems, like the cursor editability, but a large number of frustrations. I did experiment with Camtasia Audiate, but didn't find it particularly useful. The AI voice generation took so much editing of the script to get emphasis in the right places, and still so clearly sounded like AI - I did a comparison with ElevenLabs, expecting similar results, and found that I didn't need to make any edits to the original script to get back something that sounded far more natural. I find it's got really nice features in a frustrating user interface with some strange limitations. ----- ### "A great video editing tool" — 4.0/5 > **Adam** | *9 June 2025* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: The UI for Camtasia is not a big learning curve like other editors. Whilst it seems more simple compared to other editors, Camtasia gives you a lot of features to create great content. The screen recorder is an excellent tool and produces great screen recordings. Camtasia comes with a large amount of tools such as transitions, effects, colour grading, behaviours and assets. AI features are very good in Camtasia and always improving. > > **Cons**: Lack of audio editing features. There are audio editing features available, but it lacks some key features which are the norm across other editing tools, like merging tracks so two audio tracks blend together, or use of AI to extend a audio tracks, so you can have one audio track, and extend across the length of the video and it will automatically create you are longer track. > > A great editing tool that's not overly complicated to learn or use. You can produce to complex videos if you wanted, and also striking, engaging tutorial videos. ----- ### "Great for longer videos." — 5.0/5 > **Russ** | *25 May 2025* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 1.0/10 > > **Pros**: Camtasia is great if your requirements are a little bit more complicated. Albeit Camtasia take a while to learn butvthenend results are very good. > > **Cons**: Camtasia looks and feels complicated and is harder to learn that the competitors. The user interface could be a little better but this is not a real issue. > > Camtasia is a great system if your requirements are more than basic. The quality of videos that were created are excellent. ----- ### "Helpful video creator and editor for presentations and demonstrations" — 5.0/5 > **Jamie** | *17 August 2026* | Higher Education | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Camtasia was an easy to use program. A novice can get up and running in a very short amount of time creating a new project. The ability to record interactively, import existing content in terms of audio files, images, and videos easily supports branding and pre-existing media. Flexible in terms of types of output generated, whether publishing directly to a locally-stored video or uploading directly to online platforms. > > **Cons**: Doesn't immediately begin with a lot of built-in resources, however there are features that were accessible in their online site to add on animations, intros, etc. A few free options, mainly paid add-ons. As with any video editing, ensure your system has adequate storage and memory to handle its needs; otherwise it will be very jittery / stutters while reviewing the playback > > I've enjoyed using Camtasia over several years. I use it to design step-by-step training videos, instructional walkthroughs, procedural demonstrations, and video presentations for advertising. The interface is clean and simple, the program is quite powerful to generate good quality videos. Projects are easy to manage and customize with additional media selection. I would highly recommend it. Pricing is absolutely reasonable for what you get out of it, starting as low as approximately $50 CAD per year for basic tools, up to $825 CAD per year for their AI-enabled suite which includes all their stock assets, transcript generation, multi-language support, and much more ----- ### "My Go-To Video Creation Tool" — 4.0/5 > **Marsha** | *7 November 2025* | Insurance | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: This is the easiest video editing software out there. The user interface is more intuitive than PremierePro. They also continue to improve the product but adding things into the Media Library and the transitions and annotations are slick and professional. I like that you can create mp4, m4a, gif and html compatible packages as output. The visualization of the audio clips makes it easy to clip and silence sections as needed. You can record your screen which makes it very useful for any training or teaching needs. > > **Cons**: You have to pay for a subscription have the software from now on. That means it's a rolling cost. Also you need additional RAM and a decent graphics card if you edit something longer than, say, 1 minute long. Otherwise "normal" corporate laptop with crash out from the strain that the program demands. > > It's my favorite tool for personal projects and work projects. The webinars that they offer are very good and they are actually live. Not a pre-recorded playing of something perfected and manicured. ----- Page: 1 / 19\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.co.uk/software/203013/camtasia?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.co.uk/software/203013/camtasia) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | pl | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | | tr | | ----- ## Structured Data
