Would I recommend Camtasia to people? I have to give the answer I always give at this point…it depends what you are needing to do.
I'm glad that we selected Camtasia for the work I am doing at OSPRI. It's proven invaluable and relatively straightforward to use to create amazing micro videos from screen recordings. It absolutely was the right choice for what we needed. If you stick to using Camtasia on one operating system, it is going to be a joy to use...with some exceptions...such as items missing from one platform that are on another (Gesture effects for example). Or if you are like Steve Dotto and handing off significant content to someone on another platform, Camtasia holds its head above both ScreenFlow and Articulate Storyline, because neither of those products allow you to do that.
What it doesn't have, is the ease at which you can move Adobe Captivate projects between Mac and PC...and if you're jumping between systems often (like me) Camtasia feels frustrating. When you are working like that, the joy of working on multiple systems diminishes immensely because of the extra effort and the need to remember to package things up frequently.
