## Reviews

### "Screencast-O-Matic for teachers" — 5.0/5

> **Karen** | *6 September 2022* | E-Learning | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I love how easy it is to use screencast-o-matic\!  I don't have any special video editing skills, but have quickly learned to edit short screen recordings for review of questions for students.  This software is intuitive.  It is easy to record, to edit out parts, add in content, and make a usable product.
> 
> **Cons**: I've really not found anything I didn't like. I've gotten better at editing as I've used the product more, but it was easy to use with a little practice.  I didn't have any formal training and easily picked up how to use the program.
> 
> I like using screencast-o-matic for screen recordings\!  It works well and lets me use a stylus and on screen writing. It's easy to edit, download, and share.

### "Good but can be better" — 4.0/5

> **Ryan** | *23 October 2024* | Higher Education | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like that you can record and even add to your recording questions.
> 
> **Cons**: I would like to be able to save a recording and then go back and add to that one rather than splice other recordings together. As an instructor, it is essential to be able to stop at a point and then be able to get right back into the same recording. Maybe I am missing something...
> 
> I have only done a few things, but it is user-friendly for the most part.

### "Avoid new version" — 1.0/5

> **Scott** | *27 May 2024* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Used to be such an easy program to use.  The old program (I started using when it was Screencast-o-matic) made it very simple to record online classes and make them accessible to students.
> 
> **Cons**: Terrible, TERRIBLE conversion to new app and format.  Videos now don't save and can't be converted to a usable format (this used to be very easy).  I spent a good bit of time recording a class on the new app, and then spent several hours trying to save it, to no avail.  Nothing I've tried will save the video and all the work's down the drain.  Looking for a new recording program now, will never use Screenpal again.
> 
> Old app, when it was Screencast-o-matic: so easy, I was a big advocate&#10;New app: terrible, it just doesn't work

### "ScreenPal is my Go To Tool" — 5.0/5

> **Mill** | *28 February 2024* | E-Learning | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I used ScreenPal when it was Screencast-O-Matic.  I learned about it from Youtubers that said making their videos was inexpensive and easy.  I've been using it for a long time.  I truly enjoy the ease of video editing, screen recording and link sharing.  Those are my favorite features.  Now that I know about the audio recording features, I will definitely be using those.  The simple pricing and low cost for such an easy-to-use, robust tool of this caliber couldn't be passed up.
> 
> **Cons**: One of my biggest cons would pertain to layering of edits made during video editing. &#10;For example, if I've cut one part, then overlay text next, then inserted a video, etc. I'm not able to just remove that first cut and keep the rest of the edits that I made subsequently after that.  Now granted, I'm not a professional video editor, so I'm not sure if that's something you can do anyway, however that's the biggest con.  I have to essentially start everything over if I mess up an edit later down the line.  Perhaps you all have some training on how to do this and I'm just not aware, but that's the only issue I would say.
> 
> A+ experience with ScreenPal.  I have recommended it to others and at least 2 people have purchased it from my recommendations and still use it.  I LOVE ScreenPal.  When I started using the price point was insanely low so it was a no-brainer to subscribe for several years in advance because this tool was just so awesome\!\!\!

### "My GOTO screen recorder" — 5.0/5

> **Geoffrey** | *12 January 2022* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Screencast-O-Matic is like the powerpoint for video/screenshots.&#10;You can quickly and easily record your screen and/or your webcam... or make screenshots (without having the app crashing on you in the middle of it).&#10;Then edit what you need with their embedded editor.&#10;(I like that the mic signal is cleaned automatically within the editor to remove undesirable noises.)&#10;One more click and your final output is shared online within their included cloud service.&#10;If you chose to save the video to your computer, you won't need to re-compress it with handbrake to save space as it's already producing decently sized files (3 compression levels available).&#10;You can even configure it to save your work files in the cloud so that you can come back later to them from anywhere and continue where you left (or just cancel as many actions as you wish - all your history is saved along with your final output).&#10;I also like the fact that it comes with royalty free music we can use within our videos in a few clicks.&#10;I'm happy to pay monthly. The price is ridiculous and it's an awesome product that keeps being updated.
> 
> **Cons**: To my regret, they removed in V2 the "automatic documentation" feature which was available in V1.&#10;There is now the possibility to import an external video and edit it within the tool; unfortunately, some MP4 codecs have playback issues.&#10;That's about it for the cons.
> 
> I'm delighted with SOM.&#10;I've been using it since V1 to share tutorials with my team, record webinars, VSLs, online trainings and group meetings.
