Great for quick video

Been a great experience so far, I use it mainly to create quick personalised videos for prospects/clients. Simple to start from the browser extension, quick to save and be available to share the link. I have customised it to have brand colours, a logo that links to my booking page.

PROS

This software is great for doing quick videos that can be quickly shared - think Loom - with your own branding, a link on the customisable player that can include your logo with a link to a booking page or whatever suits your need. Also has the ability to add CTA's, forms, trim the video, create playlists and much more. Quick and simple to use from the browser extension allowing sharing with or without webcam, create the video then share the link.

CONS

So far I haven't found any issues that have been a problem.

A fully immersive brand experience

Fantastic! It was one of my best purchases on appsumo and I'm thrilled to be a user and fan.

PROS

For a brand strategist, StoryXpress is the ultimate win for me. I'm able to provide a cohesive look/feel for my clients through the customized video landing pages. I can easily share my thoughts, my screen, my work with less back and forth than ever before.

CONS

I wish there was an easier way to use the tools while recording. Sometimes I feel like I click on draw, then have to remember to go back in to click through cursor. It would be great if there was an easier way to "x" out of a feature while recording live.

Reason for choosing StoryXpress

Great special on AppSumo!

Reasons for switching to StoryXpress

The ability to host unlimited videos, customized video landing pages, and a full brand experience with analytics.

Almost.

When it works it's good. If it's a tool you want to rely on or build business processes around (as the price would suggest) it's hard to justify.

PROS

The chrome extension (when it works) is quick and the the uploads are fast.

CONS

It was advertised with features (no branding/blurring etc.) that don't exist and it is often quite buggy. The customer care team have acknowledged both inconsistencies without doing anything about it. Hard to trust.

Needed a quick screen recorder, especially for describing technical issues

Have used it several times to show tech support what I need to show them instead of having to type it out. I work with many vendors and software companies as an entrepreneur so being able to express my problem through video that's immediately shareable is invaluable and saves me SO much time. Overall a very positive experience. It's not something I need every day, but when I need it, it does the job better than anything I've used.

PROS

Incredibly easy and fast to use. You click a button, it's recording, when you're finished, it gives you a shareable link right away. No waiting. No messing with settings or rendering to a local file or having to upload. It's just done and you can move on with your day. Also like the ability to draw or text on the screen while recording though I haven't used that yet, but I know it's possible.

CONS

Want to be able to select an area of the screen to record, but it doesn't do that. Would like to be able to set defaults instead of having to select the options I want every time. Like when I activate it, it'd be nice if it was already set to Audio Off and Screen Only. Doesn't lower my score, it's just a "would be nice" feature.

Reason for choosing StoryXpress

Found out Snagit doesn't actually record video, only screen shots. It was a big let down.

Reasons for switching to StoryXpress

Camtasia is an amazing product that I still use, but it has no function to do quick recordings. In Camtasia, you record the screen, produce the video, render it, upload it, finally get the link, then share the link. In StoryXpress, you record, stop recording, share the link. It doesn't get any simpler than that!
