Pros / Cons
  • The only suggestion that I would find to be useful to new OBS users, would be if there were a more comprehensive & expanded downloadable .pdf user and functions manual. Or even a more expanded "hints" segment when initially logging on so that it can teach you about all of the various uses & functions available to the user.
  • It is a fight to configure the docks in the space you want them and many times the configuration is not supported so it wastes precious screen space.

  • Great tool for screen recording, video recording, and tutorials for education or content creation purposes.
  • Screen recording is sometimes a bit buggy on a macOS platform
