What users say
Pros
- Ten minutes of footage can be cut down in about two minutes of editing.
- Short async videos replace meetings and get watched whenever there is a gap.
- Frequent updates add improvements that are actually good.
Cons
- The editor lags, freezes and jumps out of sync during simple cuts.
- Cloud-based editing turns a 30-minute screen recording into hours of work.
- Long recordings can fail to save, and exports can finish with no file on disk.
- Reported bugs stay unfixed, and tickets get closed without a fix.
- Sound and image drift apart in recordings on an Intel MacBook Pro.
