Capto: Screen Capture and Record
Price: €
There are many great screen recording applications available on Windows, but options on Mac are more limited. Capto is one of the best screen recording solutions designed for Mac. Whether you want to record tutorials, vlogs, lessons, video calls, meetings, or classes, Capto will come to the rescue and offer you a comprehensive solution.
Record anything on your screen
Capto provides you with the option to record anything on your screen, whether it's the entire screen or a specific (or custom) area of the screen that you can choose. The usual options include custom recording areas, include/hide cursor, add/remove microphone audio, and a few other choices. You can also take screenshots as needed by capturing the entire screen, active window, or a custom region.
Audio recording obviously depends on the microphone attached or integrated with the Mac, but the editing suite can help you clean and edit it as required.
Furthermore, there is an additional feature that you might not find in other screen recorders, which allows you to set an advanced time up to which you want to record your screen.
An onboard editing suite
There is a complete editing feature built within the application that will not only help you edit but also assist you in making your recording perfect. From adjusting your volume to trimming and adding more information, the editing feature offers you a lot of flexibility in ensuring that you have the right video afterward.
For audio editing, the editor provides you with full control to adjust anything that you require. You can edit multiple audios from various sources that you can integrate with your screen recording. The editing capability overall is pretty limited, but more than enough for basic usage.
Sharing
Capto has fantastic sharing options that include multiple platforms (local and cloud-based). The supported platforms include YouTube, Tumblr, Google Drive, EverNote, and Dropbox. These cover most cloud-based solutions that users will use. Additionally, it also provides support for FTP and SFTP servers.
Price
There is a 15-day free trial that users can opt for to try out the Capto screen recorder before making the decision to purchase it or not. There are three different packages in which the application is available, ranging from 24.99€ to 59.99€, depending on whether you want to opt for a single license or multiple machines (educational or commercial).
Conclusion
Capto is an excellent screen recording solution for Mac users. It provides a simple user interface with all the features you would require when you need to capture your screen or create screenshots. There are a few small bugs here and there, but if you are looking for a Mac screen recorder, then you should give it a try.
