I use it for quick tutorial for teachers, reflections for students, recording directions. It's great for screen recording or making presentations with audio! #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros I've been using this product for about 2 years and it just keeps getting better! First off, the free version is great! What you get for nothing is hard to beat. The ability to quickly screen record a lesson, tutorial, etc. is awesome. And it's so simple to use. I also love that it links seamlessly with my Google Drive and other social media platforms. They are constantly providing helpful updates, as well. Plus, their customer service and help site is very helpful. #### Cons Due to fact that they update so often (which is good), it is difficult to keep up. Nothing major really changes, they just keep you on your toes with all the simple updates and changes they make! --- ### Screencasts Made Simple - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Christopher E. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Education Management - Company size: 501-1000 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for less than 2 years - Reviewed: June 2021 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. As a teacher who makes many instructional videos, I have found Screencastify to be invaluable. It takes a lot of the stress out of making screencasts #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros Screencastify takes the guesswork out of making a screencast. With simple, easy-to-use controls you can make a screencast in 3 clicks. The toolset and editor also allow users to make screencasts that range from simply recording the screen to on-screen annotations and text. It is a lightweight but powerful tool. #### Cons The biggest issue I have experienced is stopping the video and accessing the tools can slow down the video. There are shortcut keys but they require hitting multiple keys. The flow of the video can sometimes be affected by switching tools or stopping the recording. If you use the mouse to stop the video and do not want that on the end you must manually remove it. It would be helpful if the shortcut keys were simpler. --- ### Screencastify - Overall rating: 3/5 - Reviewer: Brian J. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Education Management - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used monthly for more than 2 years - Reviewed: May 2023 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Screencastify is costly and is not as user friendly as other similar products. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 2/5 - Value for money: 3/5 - Customer support: 3/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros Screencastify is easy to use to create videos and to edit the beginning and end of videos. #### Cons Screencastify is not as easy to use to edit the middle sections of videos. --- ### Great Tool but Pricey for Pro Features - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Bryan B. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Education Management - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for more than 2 years - Reviewed: May 2020 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Screencastify is a great, free screen recording program for people looking to get started with making videos. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 2/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros Screencastify is simple and intuitive to use. If you are looking to make short screen sharing or presentation videos, it is a great tool. The video quality is high and the integrated browser add-on makes it easy to record quickly. #### Cons The price of pro features, at an organizational level, is a little pricey. Also, only allowing 5 minute video recordings in the free version seems a little short. All you are promoting is users making multiple 5 minute videos as opposed to one long one - still the same end game. Let the user have unlimited recording length and just brand the video for free users. --- ### Screencastify Makes Screen Sharing a Breeze - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Luke K. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Computer Software - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: July 2019 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. This is an extremely useful tool as a Client Success Manager because it provides the perfect solution when an email would take to long and the issue or solution would not be as easy to describe over a phone call. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 2/5 - Functionality: 3/5 #### Pros The Screencastify plug-in makes it very easy to quickly record my sceen and download it into a sharable video. #### Cons I have nothing negative to say about this tool --- ### If you email daily, you should consider Screencastify! - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Jason L. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Medical Practice - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for more than 2 years - Reviewed: October 2018 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. I use Screencastify to record short (between :30 second and 10 minute) videos for either marketing use, instructional use, or simply to reply in a personal way to an email from a friend, customer, or potential client. I use this weekly, and in certain seasons, daily. I love it! #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros I love the ease of use of this software. It's a simple Chrome plugin that you click, select what you want to record, and begin recording. Having it save automatically to either Google Drive or YouTube is amazing, and I love that I don't have to spend time uploading or fussing with editing. I simply love this software. #### Cons For what I expect it to do, I literally cannot find anything I wish more about this software. --- ### One of the better recording tool in the market - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Neil Adrian M. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Information Technology and Services - Company size: 201-500 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for more than 2 years - Reviewed: September 2022 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. We needed a screen recording tool to record issues #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 3/5 - Functionality: 3/5 #### Pros Easy to use and good quality on-screen recording #### Cons Just recording no logs or other info saved during recording --- ### Great for User Support - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Abby H. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Think Tanks - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for less than 12 months - Reviewed: November 2018 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Screencastify has dramatically cut down the time it takes for me to create user tutorials for supporting my users in various capacities. It's a great tool and a good value for the money. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros I administer our nonprofit's database system. As an admin, a big portion of my job is ongoing user training. I used to build user manuals with tons of screenshots, which takes approximately forever. Now, I use Screencastify to do actual screenshare videos of the processes that I need to compile into user manuals. I also use it on a one-off basis to share processes with users if they're having trouble with something specific. The users love it, and it makes my job loads easier. #### Cons It does take a while to download the videos, but it's not that big of a deal. --- ### Praise for Screencastify! - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Crystal I. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Insurance - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for less than 12 months - Reviewed: April 2018 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros I use the Chrome extension. I use the free version. The free version only lets you record for up to 10 minutes I think, but that is enough for me. It is intuitive, clean, and I love how all my videos instantly have a shareable link as soon as I'm done recording. You can record a single tab or your entire screen. Easiest thing out there. Other stuff requires downloads or there is a big learning curve. Not with Screencastify. I'm so happy I found it and so are our website developers! Explaining what we are experiencing (issues, bugs, etc) is super easy. #### Cons No cons. I'm so glad I found Screencastify. It has made my business life so much easier. I'm glad the free version gets the job done. --- ### Great Lesson Recording Tool - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Natalie W. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: E-Learning - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for less than 12 months - Reviewed: November 2020 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. I began using this when my school shifted to remote learning in March 2020. Since then I've found it a great resource to use when my students are unable to attend classes and I can explain everything through video ahead of time. This saves me writing a lengthy email they may not read! #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros I love using this software to pre-record a lesson. The best feature is that it allows me to crop it once I'm done so I can make sure only the parts I need are saved. #### Cons It takes quite some time for a recorded video to download onto my chromebook, which means I have to wait before editing, which is a minor annoyance. --- ### Great simple to use tool for training videos - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Alistair T. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Government Administration - Company size: 1001-5000 employees - Product usage: Used monthly for more than 2 years - Reviewed: April 2025 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. I've used it for a number of years for ad-hoc videos to provide feedback on web pages or mini training videos to colleagues. I like it as it's right there in my browser and I can quickly produce and send a video. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros User friendly. Controls are clear and took less than a minute to learn. #### Cons It would be good if it automatically set up a folder where your recordings were all saved. --- ### One Of The Best Web Based Screen Recorders - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Daniel F. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Primary/ Secondary Education - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for more than 2 years - Reviewed: November 2022 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered Screencastify Is a wonderful tool for creating video tutorials and demonstrations directly on your computer. The ease of recording and sending videos makes it great for fast paced work environments, and the user-friendly interface makes it a welcoming tool even to those who do not have as much experience with technology or screen recorders. While I miss the flexibility of the free version, paying for this tool is absolutely worth it if you are making a lot of screen recorded tutorials or demonstration for those in your job or home life. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Screencastify Makes it incredibly simple and fast to record your screen and/or WebCam for easy tutorials and demonstrations. The fact that you can share these videos almost instantly after recording makes it a prime option in fast paced work environment. #### Cons While the free version of the application still allows users to record videos, they have increased restrictions over time and reduce the number of videos free members can record to five unless they delete previous recordings. Paying for Screencastify gives users access to unlimited recordings and editing tools, and while these are great resources, it can still be a little sad when some of these used to be free. --- ### The quickest and easiest tool for recording your screen - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Luca P. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Marketing and Advertising - Company size: Self-Employed - Product usage: Used weekly for more than 2 years - Reviewed: May 2022 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. I started using Screencastify several years ago to record video guides for my clients and courses after hearing about it online. I immediately liked its simplicity and continue to use it today and recommend it to anyone looking for a quick and easy tool to make screen recorders. Before Screencastify I had never made a screen recorder and I was very happy with it. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros Incredibly simple, just press a button to start recording the screen, record as long as you need and press another button to end the recording. Time a few minutes and the video is uploaded to the Drive and ready to be shared with whomever you want #### Cons Video editing tools have never been very quick and easy to use. --- ### Easy, powerful and flexible - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Paul M. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Primary/ Secondary Education - Company size: 201-500 employees - Product usage: Used monthly for more than 2 years - Reviewed: February 2020 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. We started with the free version (limits to 5 minutes of recording and, I believe, has a water mark). After realizing that showing staff how to do something is more beneficial than creating "how to" documents, we purchased a couple licenses to try it out. From there, more and more staff wanted to use it and we currently sit at 15 licenses that we can "check out" as needed to any of our staff. No regrets in our purchase and our staff love it. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Very simple to set up and easy to use (even our non-technical staff use it often). Installation is simply adding a Chrome Extension and then assigning a license to an email account. Having the flexible licensing (allowing us to transfer a license from one user to another as needed) is great since recording videos, typically, isn't a daily need. The options are easy to understand allowing the user to share a desktop, browser tab and even show the presenter in-screen on the recording. The addition of drawing tools really enhance the entire package. Cost is low and well worth it. #### Cons Honestly, there is very little to not like about Screencastify. Any issues that we've had have always come down to user error (such as the webcam not being installed or plugged in). I did not rank customer service since we've never had to use them. That, to me, says volumes about how easy the product is to use. --- ### Quick Recordings - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Dionne W. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Primary/ Secondary Education - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for less than 2 years - Reviewed: July 2021 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. I enjoyed being able to record and show my computer screen and the same time. It was very useful for simple instructions or reminders on the day's lesson learned. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros I like the ease of use. With little knowledge initially, I was able to figure out how to record and post the recordings for the students to watch on their time. #### Cons The time allowed for recordings was limited unless you had a paid subscription. Sometimes I needed more than four minutes. --- ### Screencastify in Anderson One - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Sarah M. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Education Management - Company size: 1001-5000 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for more than 2 years - Reviewed: January 2021 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. I have been using Screencastify for four years now. I love how it continues to update and add new features that teachers find useful. The video editor has been one of my favorite additions that I use regularly. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros As a K-12 Instructional Technologist in Anderson One, I rely on and use Screencastify on a regular basis. I use Screencastify to record how-to tutorials for my teachers, administrators, and even parents and students in our district. Screencastify is very easy to use. I love the ability to edit my video and upload to YouTube all within Screencastify. #### Cons I would love the ability to record my screen and have the option to also have my webcam showing me in the bottom of the screen. We have seen this option in Loom and would like it added to Screencastify as well. --- ### Great for instructional videos - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Paula M. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Education Management - Company size: 501-1000 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 12 months - Reviewed: October 2020 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Overall, it has been great! The videos automatically upload to my Google drive making it that much easier to share them with my students. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros I love that it captures my viewboard screen so I can share examples with my students. I did not need any extra equipment and it took about 2 minutes to allow permissions and I was ready to record. #### Cons The share screen label will not go away. I can move it, but it is a distraction when I have to move to continue working out a math problem for my students. #### Reasons for switching to Screencastify Our district needed a more uniform approach to reach students virtually. This platform has allowed us to teach face to face and virtually at the same time. --- ### Customer Service - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Ginger V. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: E-Learning - Company size: Self-Employed - Product usage: Used weekly for less than 12 months - Reviewed: August 2020 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered Since becoming a paying customer, I have not seen the benefits outweighs the negatives. That might change, but first impressions are important when growing a business. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 2/5 - Customer support: 1/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros I have used the free feature for over a year and it has saved me some time on instruction per class period. With online learning, I needed to extend my instruction by a little more than 5 minutes, so I didn’t think twice to pay for the subscription. #### Cons The customer service infrastructure is terrible. I have made my second recording as a paid member and for whatever reason, the software doesn’t recognize me as being an upgraded member so it won’t let me download the file. I have contacted them over 3 times, filled out two forms over a 4-day period and have yet to receive anything except a blank response from a [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN]. I have followed all of their troubleshooting tips on their FAQs, so it must be something on their end. Either way, I will have to re-record using another service or postpone my lesson. --- ### Screen Sharing Tools For Our Team - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Kiran P. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Restaurants - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 2 years - Reviewed: October 2019 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. In a round-up, our team has been able to get training and share presentations remotely with Screencastify with convenience. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros The remarkable thing is, this application can be added on the chrome browser through its extension and easily share live screen among team members for training and presentation purposes. #### Cons Unfortunately, the extension of this brilliant app is limited to the Chrome browser only and is not available for popular browsers like Mozilla Firefox. --- ### Excellent Software - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Cristina G. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Education Management - Company size: 201-500 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for more than 2 years - Reviewed: June 2020 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. My overall experience was positive. It is very easy to use and there isn't a learning curve. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Screencastify is extremely user friendly. It is very easy to figure out. It has many great features such as how you'd like to record. Whether you want to include a picture in picture or just the screen. #### Cons The only con is that the free version only allows you to record for 5 minutes and you are not able to edit. I did purchase the yearly fee, which gives you access to recording longer videos as well as editing. I think that this is one of the cons for a teacher. I would like it to be a free resource for teachers. --- ### Screencastify is a free, helpful tool I use for my HR demos - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Verified Reviewer - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Education Management - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used other for less than 2 years - Reviewed: May 2018 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Using the free version is good enough for my needs. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros The free version works for our needs Very easy to use (intuitive) Convenient for short video presentations/recording #### Cons The solution is great but it would be better to have pricing for non-for-profit organizations. The Let's talk school pricing is a little intimidated to approach. As mentioned, I use this tool probably 5 times per year. --- ### The best screen recorder I've used - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Verified Reviewer - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Information Technology and Services - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 6 months - Reviewed: December 2019 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. I use Screencastify in my small IT services business and freelancing doing user testing. It's perfect for recording instructional videos for clients and submitting user tests that involve screen recordings. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros It has a lovely, intuitive UX. Most screen recorders are pretty simple, but this is another level of simplicity and elegance. I love the way it looks and love using it. #### Cons I honestly can't think of any big cons. It's hard to complain when the software is this well-designed and free to use! --- ### Screencastify Review - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Lindsay H. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Education Management - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 12 months - Reviewed: May 2021 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Once in place, our teachers love this product. They are able to record lessons and front load material for students and then support with live teaching in the afternoons. This has been a lifesaver during this year of hybrid learning. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros This product was very easy to set up for our district. We needed something ASAP and we were able to put this in place in a day. #### Cons The purchasing was slightly confusing on which product we needed to buy. We ended up buying the wrong membership and having to upgrade. --- ### Great tool to make videos for students! - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Anneda N. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: E-Learning - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 12 months - Reviewed: May 2021 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. All in all, it was a great app that I used for an entire year. I used it to make a lot of videos. New features were frequently added or maybe I just learned more about it. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros I used this tool daily during the past school year. It allowed me to record lessons for my students and then upload them with ease. #### Cons I had to frequently uninstall and reinstall the app because it would freeze. When it did this, it sometimes it lost my video and I had to re-record. --- ### Must Have Screen Recording Software - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Amber R. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Hospital & Health Care - Company size: 10000+ employees - Product usage: Used weekly for less than 12 months - Reviewed: October 2020 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Amazing! Can’t believe I ever tried to make screen recordings without it!! #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Screencastify is one of the best softwares I’ve purchase for recording videos of my work with overlaying of my voice and video content. Originally I got the free trial to test out the software. I loved it and even with the free trial Screencastify let’s you record 5 min videos! In order to make longer videos for school, I made the purchase and haven’t looked back. I haven’t found a product that makes it so easy to record your screen and edit in other aspects. Must have for teachers and/or assistant teachers. #### Cons I haven’t found any major issues with screencastify. The only major downfall is that it just isn’t very compatible with mobile devices so you have to have a pc or laptop. ## More reviews [Next reviews](https://www.softwareadvice.com/screen-recording/screencastify-profile/reviews/?page=2) --- Screencastify Reviews, Pros and Cons - 2026 Software Advice
