Bandicam Screen Recorder
As they are quite versatile, screen recorders possess a lot of value for many users. Perhaps you’re trying to record a quick tutorial, or to show someone something on your computer in more detail — recording your screen is easier, more convenient, and is preferable to recording with your phone’s camera.
Bandicam Screen Recorder has quite a name in this space. It’s a time-tested solution that is easy to recommend thanks to its ease of use and abundance of features, but the market has been getting increasingly competitive over the last few years.
Bandicam is a name that is perhaps familiar to many due to its output watermark. Owing to a user-friendly that feels very natural to operate even after only a few minutes with the program, the software is accessible and gives you numerous options to explore and work with.
There are multiple recording modes, with the recent addition of limiting recording to a specific window being a welcome addition. Alternatively, you may choose to only capture a specific portion of your screen or use a capture device, or if you like recording game footage, use the Game mode to also display your FPS.
While capturing, you can annotate using various pen and highlighter tools as well as modify the size and opacity of the recording interface. You may also want to take a look at the video settings to choose a preset suitable for you: modify footage resolution and codec, set a desired framerate, and so on.
Bandicam stands as a screen recorder that is easy to adopt, but some of its limitations, such as the watermark on output and 10-minute recording limit, may leave some users wanting more. Open-source solutions like OBS provide a comprehensive toolset that, although it may take a little more time to get acquainted with, is fully offered without any restrictions.
Not to mention, built-in offerings for NVIDIA and AMD GPUs have made great strides in offering competent solutions that are more resource-friendly for game recordings and are preferred by many over third-party software.
In any case, Bandicam is a time-proven solution whose value proposition, I’d argue, is most relevant for casual users who can benefit from annotating their desktop while recording. The recording menu is robust and offers lots of features to seamlessly film tutorials and other similar material.
