• Works as intended.

  Pros

  It allows you to record in whatever format you desire, allows you to change encoder options for each format. Can limit frame rate. Can record any part of your screen or all of it, you can set custom dimensions. Lets you record from network or a webcam. Can add watermarks, text, and adjust or apply video effects. Set custom hot keys.

  Cons

  Strictly recording software. If you want to edit your video afterwards, then you have to use separate software or purchase editing software from the same company. If you reformat your PC and lose your software key, then you get to have fun contacting customer support for it.

  Summary

  Overall it's great, very handy tool indeed. Was well worth their asking price. Plenty of options to mess with.

• Invasive software, installs unwanted apps, not FREE

  geldner8/23/2017

  Pros

  None. This is bait and switch software.

  Cons

  Installs other programs and hijacks file associations without permission. Even dipped into my Adobe Master Collection of apps and forced programs like Audition and others to take it as default editor. SHAMEFUL! Also converts itself into "DEMO" mode after being offered as freeware. Demo mode means "can't save work".

  Summary

  DO NOT INSTALL unless you want to spend an hour cleaning your system of this piece of junk.

• Works Great

  fig41597/26/2017

  Pros

  I love this app. It has saved me so much time and money!!! I do have two items on my wish list, though: a way to stop recording WITHOUT blocking it, AND "invisible mode", where the entire recording area wouId be visible WITHOUT the program blocking it (and being recorded OVER it), Other than that, it works perfectly. Well worth the money!

  Cons

  Same as above. The smallest mode besides minimize, where you can't DO anything, is still huge and blocks too much of my screen. Plus, ti records itself on top of whatever you're trying to record! That's NOT cool, but, it doesn't really affect me much, other than being annoying. However, if I was recording video to show to OTHERS, it would be a dealbreaker: I'd be looking elsewhere.

  Summary

  It suits my purpose just fine, recording live streaming events for personal use. I don't mind if sometimes the program obscures the video for a few seconds...BUT, if you're recording video that others will see, look elsewhere for software.

• Useful, versatile recording software, no silly frills

  spiral_san5/16/2017

  Pros

  I want to record webcam footage in a format/resolution/compression ratio of my choice, with a time stamp. It does want all that with no fuss.

  Cons

  Can't set it to put a time stamp on automatically, I have to set it every time.

  Summary

  Exactly what I was after, with no problems (so far).

• Very bad idea. Caused Blue Screen of Death.

  gaia1muse9/13/2014

  Pros

  They let you use it once....

  Cons

  Driver corrupted computer to point of blue screen of death showing up 3 times... plus they claim it's free for home users...but that's not true. After you use it once they insist on your upgrading to paid....so screwing up your computer and lying? Really bad idea...

  Summary

  Avoid

• The guy who said DANGER is right!

  aorobert1/23/2014

  Pros

  Pros? Um, you get this warning to NOT install it!

  Cons

  EVERYTHING!

  Summary

  I'm a computer professional. I saw the post about "Danger! Danger!" and chuckled. Then I installed the program. I AM NOT LAUGHING NOW! This software took out my OS. I had to go back about a month to get a good copy without damage. Make sure you have a backup, you WILL need it! Once I uninstalled it there were still hooks in my system as I could get no other video software to run, they all said something else was running. Yea... THIS MESS! So, avoid it!!

• Bogus advertisement

  honest1211/27/2013

  Pros

  After download of free as advertised for home use it will not allow to capture anything. Screen is blacked out and info is displayed to buy. This tricks are used for almost all software by this company from Australia. Some allow to use limited use but still do not keep whole period of "free trial". Complains to that company are ignored completely.

  Cons

  Worthless entirely.

  Summary

  Shameful company continue this tactics throughout whole their existence on internet. Find others from North America at best.
