What do you like best about Action!?

Mirillis Action! is an extremely familiar name to those who have a need to record video of computer screen. This software is a good candidate in many other software. Action! allows streaming and real-time recording of Windows desktop in HD video quality. In addition, I can add live audio commentary to create tutorials, record music, and screen capture. If you like recording techniques in the game, it uses GPU power to give you the best experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Action! solving and how is that benefiting you?

What do you like best about Action!?

what I like the most is the simplicity that it has since with few actions one can record, audio, video and sound, also videos take up much less space compared to other programs

some sound and video errors that appear from time to time when there are new versions and some incompatibilities of softwares that freeze the equipment for no apparent reason Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Action!?

What I do not like is that it does not allow much configuration when you need to do direct or transmit, it is an interface that is too simple for the times that are running, only showing the minimum and without being able to change almost anything. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Action!:

my recommendation is to leave an exclusive disc only for the videos, if they weigh less but if there are several recordings per day, it fits together and it is better to have everything elsewhere and thus avoid some lag with recording.

It is also reocmentable to check the sound of output and input in a test before starting to test, since if virtual cables are used sometimes the software does not detect which cable it is and you can record dead or without background sound. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Action! solving and how is that benefiting you?

many is the issue of storage space since in other programs they take up almost three times just to record a few minutes, this also reduces the loads on editing programs, which results in higher speed when editing using the video already recorded with action Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Action!?

We have used Auction! for our annual luncheon for the past 5 years. It is great program, in which you input all your attendees and auction items. You can run reports you need, such as your check-in list and list of auction items, The grouping option makes assigning tables so easy. The day of the event, you enter the winning bids and print the invoices separating all the Quick Pays - people who swiped their credit cards and the people who still need to pay. It does the job that it is attend. After the event, you can run all the reports you need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Action!?

For certain things, it is not as user-friendly as it could be. You have to double-clink some keys to make them change to what you need. Not really a big deal but sometimes it is confusing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This program makes having a huge auction at a special event possible. This year we had over 320 auction items at our annual luncheon. We were able to deliver invoices to the tables and have all the items ready to go when the guests came to get them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Action!?

Action! is absolutely brilliant! Super effective for capturing video. You can capture in full screen or on a specific area of your screen or an external screen. It is super easy to use. Its price is extremely attractive, only €23 for a lifetime license. The ability to set the end time of recording is also very practical when you are not staying in front of your computer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Action!?

The software takes a little time to launch, you should not want to record live at the last moment ^^ Also, be careful with video storage, as they are a bit heavy and quickly take up space on your hard drive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The simplicity of the program and the high quality that you could record your full screen when you are gaming without losing any FPS when performing. Also the compression of the video after recording it was amazing I could really film a video of the game Hitman back in time and it was all good.

What do you like best about Action!?

No doubt that TechSmith Snagit and Mirillis Action! are top notch video recording and screen capture tool for windows. But Mirillis action! is the only screen capturing and recording application, that offers game-play recording, live streaming of your videos plus lifetime license with free upgrades for life. It also cost less than Techsmith Snagit and is available at a very reasonable price of $29.95 only, thus buying a Mirillis Action! license is a one-time investment for you. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Action!?

The program should be designed to load faster on windows. The loading time of the program is more than any other screen capture tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Action!:

If you are looking for a perfect Screen capture or Video Game-play tool for your windows, look no further and buy Mirillis Action! 3, because only Mirillis can give you a lifetime commercial license with free upgrades for life at a much lower cost than any other Screen capture tools.

Mirillis Action! 3 is the best all in one screen capture and video game-play capture tool. Whether you are a gamer or a general user, Mirillis Action! 3 has everything that you will ever need.

What do you like best about Action!?

Action! is the best game and screen recorder I've ever used. It captures all my games with almost zero frame drop and works amazingly with both DirectX, Open GL as well as Vulcan games. Action! records really high-quality gameplay videos with webcam and audio. It has many really, really cool gaming features like Time-Shift, HUD that shows you FPS, free disk space, webcam preview, microphone volume, recording length and a really unique option of viewing chat overlay over all my streamed games. I really appreciate the HUD feature because it keeps me informed constantly about what's going on with my recordings and streams. I think Action! has the best HUD option around and it's very helpful. Moreover, Action! is a great streaming program that I use to broadcast my games on YouTube! Regarding the streaming options its more than enough. A very convenient account manager that lets me stay logged to my YouTube, Twitch etc. accounts, a Live preview of video composition lets me arrange my stream according to my needs and much more. I can truly recommend Action! to both beginners and professional gamers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Action!?

I experience a small problem with a frame drop recording Fornite but it was my bad customizing the settings wrongly. Perhaps a small step-by-step guide would fix the issue for other users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Action! solving and how is that benefiting you?

What I realized is that I can use Action! as a screen recorder every day to make my work more efficient thanks to the visuals, I create. I save my time on making notes because with Action! I can take a screenshot by pressing a button and that's it! I'm a software tester and I recommended Action! in my company and this has proven to be immensely successful. Action! appears to be an irreplaceable help in problems troubleshooting and creating tutorials both for customers and co-workers. Now, customer-service communication in my company is much better. All in all, taking into account that nowadays there are a lot of fake programs that pretend to be good software, I'm really happy to discover Action! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Action!?

I like Action! because it's one of the most reliable screen recording software with really decent broadcasting features. What I like the most is a quality recording of my Vulcan games, recording Brio 4K webcam in 60 FPS, nice drawing panel options, the most informative HUD I've ever seen and streaming features: adding streaming overlays, preview mode, etc. and all of that for really good money. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Action!?

Adding some additional options would make it a perfect software. I mean for example recording webcam to separate video file so I could easily edit my recordings in Sony Vegas. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Action! solving and how is that benefiting you?

Easy and high-quality game recording and streaming to YouTube, Facebook, and Twitch. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
