Bandicam Pros and Cons

I was trying several open-source screen sharing/recording software but nothing worked for me, many of them were useless as they were not working properly and lagging on my machine and many were not even working. Finally, I used Bandicam screen sharing in my organization machine which every team member was using. It was flawless and the only software I found to capture screen videos. It allows us to capture video with sound also, without any watermark and it is allowing us to record videos up to 10 minutes which is sufficient for most of our needs, though we have licensed software. As per my experience, i can say it is the best screen recorder software I have ever used. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing I disliked about this. It has all the features like saving video with audio, separate audio file saving mode, screen capture window area selection etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The software is very easy to use and user friendly interface. The output video is of small size with good quality which is ideal for any user. You can record focussed area of your choice by setting the frame. There are shortcuts to start and stop recording. There are other features which are useful.

I used the free version so it had the 'Bandicam' watermark or logo in the video which is not cool. It does not ask where to save the video before saving, it saves it at the default location. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
