The problem with Camtasia is that it is somewhat pricy to buy just for the screen recorder. I like many features of Camtasia has a video editor and was torn between Filmora X and Camtasia as a primary video editor. Ultimately, I preferred Filmora X as my video editor which also includes a screen recorder.
Having said that, I had a very old Camtasia license but saw a crazy limited time $75 license upgrade offer earlier this year and jumped on it. So now, I use Camtasia as my primary screen recorder.
But for someone new coming into Camtasia having to buy a new license, I can see how it would be a barrier of entry despite it being very good software. I think many of the more established video editing software includes some screen recording software.
