It simply records the display, but doesn't allow any annotation and several other features that Camtasia Studio, FlashBack and others provide. Its purpose is different, since it is a broadcasting software. gautambjain • Mar 2016 • 14 agrees and 10 disagrees Disagree Agree It's simpler, no arbitrary video editing software included. Guest • Dec 2016 • 5 agrees and 3 disagrees Disagree Agree Very fast screencaster, tons of features, but not so straightforward, 100% free! Guest • Apr 2018 • 1 agrees and 0 disagrees Disagree Agree Open Broadcaster Software is a recording and live streaming software.

Guest • Jul 2015 • 5 agrees and 5 disagrees Disagree Agree OBS is good for broadcasting software, but for editing video it is not ideal. I don't think you can edit the webcam video separately from the screen capture, and it just doesn't have a ton of features that are good for video editing.
