Creating a Screencast: Part 1 – Choosing a Screencasting Tool
TweetWhen your communication needs expand to more than just blogging to your subscribers or clients, it may become pertinent to create a screencast. Finding myself in that exact position, it was time to explore the options to uncover the best screencasting service. If you happen to also find yourself in need of a screencasting service in the near future, I’ve shared my findings on some of the most popular services and broken them out by key attributes here:
After review, I’ve decided to try GoView for my first screencast project. It provides me with all of the necessary features with an ease of use that is certainly appreciated, with no strict time limits. I also had the opportunity to attend a webinar that was created using GoView and the quality and look of the screencast was impressive. Should screencasting become a significant tool for me in the future creating a need for more advanced features, I may consider using the JingPro service and dishing out the $14.95 annual fee.
Stay tuned for part 2 to see if GoView was the right choice and the overall experience of creating the first screencast. I would also love to hear about your own opinions of the screencast services mentioned here or any others you have found to be valuable.
