I have spent 10 years working with… I have spent 10 years working with company. The software is horrible. They sold me on their latest version the 2023 application because the other version kept crashing. What a waste of money and time! Camtasia crashed 15 times and I can’t open the project. They couldn’t restore it. I wasted months getting this done. I’ve spent 24 hours working on this (only getting 3 hours of sleep) only for the new version that I just paid for to crash yet again and now I am out of weeks worth in of content. I should have stuck with Premier Pro! Do not use this company unless you want to lose important information, especially if you are a business.

Mediocre Customer Support Camtasia will respond but expect it to take 24-48 hours, which can be a long wait if you're working on a project with a deadline. Also, their responses are not very personal or detailed regarding the specifics of your question(s) and are usually just a link to watch a video. Quite disappointed.

Is great for creating video tutorials which are vital in a hand over situatio Is great for creating video tutorials so that knowledge gained over the years by valued employees is not lost when they retire. Love the product and the easy access to their help desk.

Camtasia 2023 crashes on AMD constantly. I've been a Camtasia user now for several years and pay for their maintenance service (for free updates). Honestly, it's an excellent video editor for ease of use. However, even after several updates the current edition (2023), is a lag and crash fest on my AMD 7800X3D powered, 64 GB, RTX 3090. Just a few assets on the timeline causes freezes, and then crashes. I'm fortunate that being a long time customer I still have access to some previous editions, so I'm stuck using Camtasia 2022, which is running perfectly for me. Techsmith also seem to ignore, or even delete, forum messages reporting this issue. They deleted my forum posts when I report these problems, so they try to cover this up.

I've been a Snagit customer for years I've been a Snagit customer for years; it is a great alternative to more expensive products (like Adobe) if you don't have heavy graphics demands. I primarily take screenshots and draw system architecture diagrams for tech docs, so I'm not doing intensive photo editing by any means. Never crashed. I've used Camtasia for the past two years. It does seem a little buggy - I get a wierd black screen randomly when I clip video segments, and the file size it produces seem unnecessarily large. Also, the media directory isn't relative to the project, so if you move a project around you have to relink all your media. But I would still recommend it as a product for video production - again, not a power user by any means. Customer support is just fine - sometimes they can help, and sometimes they cant!
