Top Rated Cockos Alternatives
It has so many functions and possibilities, anything to do with audio can be done with Cockos Reaper. I love how everything is customizable and it has a huge and active community that shares tips and downloadable assets to make Reaper even better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It is a huge learning curve and to find some of the functions can be like looking for a needle in a haystack! Luckily for us, there are some great folks that do YouTube tutorials on everything you could ever imagine doing with the software. Easy to understand and follow tutorials too!

I was introduced to LICEcap by a friend and it’s simple to use once you figure it out. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Its design is outdated and the process can be a bit clunky/unintuitive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
That you can reposition the screen capture area to any size, and set a timer to start recording Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It can be a bit fiddly at times, and sometimes crashes on windows Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
LICEcap is the quickest software to record and save screen directly to animated GIFs. The best feature of the software is that we can move the screen capture frame while recording.
The pause and restart recording is also very useful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
LICEcap is a perfect software for modern pc and Mac but while using in the older version of Windows it's not working as expected. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Every other screen capture software I have used saves the output as a FLV file, which is terrible in today's world. With LICEcap you get a nice GIF which can be uploaded to ClickUp, Gitlab, Slack with the utmost ease. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The interface is a little antiquated. The latest version still needs to be optimized for MacOS. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Working as a quality assurance engineer, I used this tool to capture bugs evidence and attach them to the problem description. It is particularly useful with short time evidence.
The application allows you to select the frame rate of the gif and playing with that you can have a very small size, perfect to be attached and send. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
For me, it loses utility when I need to make long recordings, since the nature of the gif, when you reproduce it the course of the video can't be stopped, advanced or delayed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The software is light, agile, and lean. It opens in a sec and I've never crossed by a bug. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It would be nice if the archives were automatically updated into the cloud, generating a link to be shared. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I had never used LICEcap until a few weeks ago and it's amazing! I love being able to show clients how to use our software in a step by step visual. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I dislike that I cannot pull it up over a full screen. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It's extremely easy to size the window and record the screen for helpful Gifs. Interface is immensely simple. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Not a lot of ability to edit the gif, and the frame rate is also not great if you need high quality backgrounds (e.g. recording animations on a phone for a client demo, you may have some pixel-y parts of the gif) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
This is a very easy to use software.
It just takes minutes to set up.
The output files can be embedded on websites and provide users a rich experience.
You can capture different parts of your screen & even insert text too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It would be nice if we could do some basic edits to files (reduce the length of the clip) but that feature does not exist. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It's really easy to create screencasts as the GUI is simple and straightforward. It does one thing, but it does it very well. I also like that the app is lightweight and launches almost instantly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The app icon looks old-fashioned, you can even see individual pixels. Just changing the icon would make the app look more modern. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
