• Screencast-O-Matic allows my students and I to communicate more effectively via video screencasting. I like the ease of creating videos, using the writing tools, editing, publishing the mp4’s and the price is right. Nellie Muller Deutsch (Ed.D) Education Technology and Leadership Consultant.
• May 19, 2020  At a minimum, you’ll need software to record your on-screen actions and accompanying narration, then export and share that video with others. If you use a Mac, you’ll find that you can create decent screen recordings using the free QuickTime Player application.
• Mac Screen Recorder Studio is a piece of professional while cheap Mac ScreenCasting Software. It consists of a built-in unique screen recorder and a fully featured video editor. It provides an easy way to make exciting video tutorials, sales presentations, training videos, etc. And it needn't any professional knowledge to use.
• Screencast-O-Matic for Mac is the best screen capture software that is available for both online and installed on a Mac. Having the free version online version makes it much easier to figure out how to record your screen and make a tutorial out of it without having to spend your hard earned money first.

Mar 04, 2019  So my bottom line is the Mac’s built-in tools are likely too flakey for general use. Snagit is decent if you only need basic capturing, but ScreenFlow or Camtasia is a worthy investment for those involved in regular screencasting. ScreenFlow is ideal for Mac-only environments, ease of use, and super high-quality videos.
