ScreenFlow

ScreenFlow is a great option for recording the a users’ screen. There are options for quickly selecting a record mode between the entire display or a select part of it. Recorded footage can be placed in the built in video editor to make any adjustments to the footage or place it into a larger video the user is editing. The editor is not one that I would choose as my primary editor, but it gets the job done. Other software does the job for free, and while I personally prefer these options, ScreenFlow does offer a little more to justify the price of the software for some people.

I have been using it for 3 years, and I have no complaint about the software, it is not cheap, but it works, nice and clean UI, works flawlessly with a Mac, and it does what it is supposed to, however the customer service and the business model it is a massive drawback for me. My 3 years old licence would not work with MacOs Mojave, after spending nearly £90 on a screen recording software you would expect that the developers would support and maintain a not so old version, I honestly don't think there could be so many differences on MacOS as to not offer support for it. Instead they try to push you to buy the newer and fancier version, or pay an extra £50 for an update, I honestly think it is ridiculous and a very bad business model, am I supposed to upgrade every 3 years just because they arbitrarily decide to stop supporting it on a newer OS. Unfortunately I am not the only one, there are a plenty of comments like mine on internet forums, in any case I learnt from my mistake. We are looking for screen recording options at work, the Quicktime option is very limited, specially when it comes to the audio recording, but we are certainly not going to get Screenflow
