Camtasia is a robust video editing and recording tool. Camtasia allows you to locally save your recordings as project files to be exported as a .MP4 on your computer or directly to services like Panopto.

Camtasia works best on personal computers (and office desktops or laptops) rather than public classroom computers.

To request a license, email MSUTechSmith@montana.edu.

Pros

  • Robust video editing features allow users to combine multiple videos.

  • Includes tools for higher quality productions.

Cons

  • More complex and requires some knowledge of video editing.
  • Users must have storage available on their computers for project files and recordings.
  • Need to request a license for installation.
