Camtasia

Camtasia, from TechSmith, records the screen, webcam and audio, then opens the recording in a timeline editor built for instructional video. Editors add callouts, arrows, zoom and pan, cursor effects, captions and transitions, and can export to video files or to formats used in learning management systems.

Trainers, instructional designers and technical writers use it for longer tutorials and course videos where a quick screen recording is not polished enough. It runs on Windows and macOS, and its templates and asset libraries help keep a series of videos consistent.

It takes more time per video than a record-and-share tool. Before you choose it, think about how often the software you document changes, because each change can mean re-recording and re-editing. Check its caption and audio cleanup features if you publish to a wide audience.
