Comments and Reviews

   
Comment summary: Bandicam is highly praised for its user-friendly interface, excellent recording quality, and feature set, including webcam overlay and hardware encoding options. However, users express frustration with limitations in the free version, such as the watermark and 10-minute recording cap. While many highlight its advantages over rivals like Fraps and OBS, some criticize the lack of updates compared to competitors like ScreenRec. Overall, it remains a preferred choice for both casual and professional use.

This is the tool that superseded and killed Fraps.

I'm recording webinars and videos on YouTube. Bandicam is just a miracle. I can record the video with great quality. Sometimes, I record myself to make videos for Instagram. I can use Bandicam for various purpose.

Bandicam is one of the best screen recorders. I have been using Bandicam since my school days. Now, I am using Bandicam for work. I record presentations or online investments with Bandicam. The features I use the most are the drawing tools and the webcam overlay function. I like it very much

It is a paid program, but it was worth paying for. However, developers are lazy, and now they are not much different from free open-source programs.

The free version is not-so OK because it is only ten minutes per video and it comes with a watermark. The basic one-price of 39.95 plus tax is not bad though.
