Amped up screen recorder that is still easy to use.
I have used many tools from simple to complex and this tool has all I need, when I need it.
Pros
Screencast-O-Matic has been a welcome addition to my weekly online learning tools. It can be used for giving anyone a direct link to video directions you create to weekly lesson plan coverage. All videos can be edited from items ranging to adding music to blurring out unwanted images on the video. This comes in handy as a staff leader for creating "How-to" videos for our staff. It also is easily integrated with most learning management systems like Schoology and Google classroom for example.
Cons
There are many tools to choose from when editing, which can take a bit to use, but most are not needed, but can be useful when needed.
Reasons for Switching to Screencast-O-Matic
I needed a few more options to edit.

Screencast-O-Matic review by amateur QA
Very satisfied, hope to see more from Screencast-O-Matic in the future and that it will get more tools for editing, so I can further enhance my recordings.
Pros
Screencast-O-Matic is good Software, with whose use I was able to quickly record and edit some ( mainly ) short videos of encountered issues on Web Sites for one QA platform. Editing was very fair, nice, easy and fast as well and I was able to provide videos of high quality for my employer, who was very satisfied with the end result. I do hope that makers of this Software will continue their good work and even further upgrade it with some new options ( for further editing for instance ).
Cons
At the moment i do not have any negative thoughts about this product, as it was very good for my daily use and has provided me with the best result imaginable in that area of work.

A decent enough web recorder that has been surpassed.
I enjoyed it while I used it, but have since moved to using Loom instead.
Pros
It works - it records videos, gives you the ability to upload them and has basic editing options. For most people it will cover what they need.
Cons
It's clunky, it's slow - and needing to open the desktop client each time to use is a hassle. They need to invest in making it more seamless.

Awesome video editing software
I need to create custom recordings of software functionality for internal and external audiences. Screencast-O-Matic makes it easy to create a quick high quality video with transitions, effects, text, easily edit in and take out content... it's just great.
Pros
It's easy, responsive, and just awesome. I use it nearly every day to record edit and then easily share/post up to my YouTube channel to then distribute to customers and colleagues quality videos.
Cons
Nothing really, it more than meets my needs.

Really good video recording and editor
I have the app in my toolbars desktop and it doesn't take me more than one clic and adjusting the window to have my recordings ready to go
Pros
I use to record a lot of videos from the web to keep useful lessons and technical tutorials. This is the easiest way to do it, easy to install, easy to record and save and easy to edit it, make screenshots if needed
Cons
It{s sometimes difficult to avoid editing and trimming videos afterwards because is the recording screen is on the video you want to record and you can't clic easily to start the original video at the same time
Reasons for Choosing Screencast-O-Matic
I tried OBS Studio, but it is complex in every way to use, at least for the newcomers

Video editing tool for multiple
Pros
The best thing which we liked about this product is that we can work as an organization instead of an individual and we can share our content with our peers and make it password protected.
Cons
needs more improvement towards adding more content in its library for font types, background, interface, audio, and transitions from one slide to another.
