While it's never affected my actual use of the service, the site often flags a warning for available storage. My SSD has an available space of 250GB... Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Zencastr delivers on the feature it promises. Local recording and calls over its proprietary VOIP make this a better option than (gasp) Zoom. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Connectivity issues persist. Latency often apparent since video was added. And audio tracks uploaded into a recording studio often fail. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that when you record a guest you get separate mp3s for downloading. Easier to edit for podcasts. Plus you can create a new call with your guest if something happens where you have to start again. And then since the downloads are in MP3 format, you can copy, paste, chop, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wish there was an easier way to test sound levels on Zencastr. I can never tell exactly how loud or soft it is in the moment until I transfer the files later to Garage Band.

Also, I wish you could get it on Safari. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

When I use my headset and microphone, I cannot hear my guests, so I've been recording off my computer microphone that's built it. It's been fine, but I'd really like to utilize my microphone. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
