Lightweight and ridiculously fast screen video recording app for collaboration
What do you like best?
Compared to other solutions, like Cloudapp, Berrycast is ridiculously fast - both in terms of the interface and in terms of the video encoding. It takes mere seconds to have a shareable link with a fully processed and viewable video. It is also easy to share via email and personal link including password protection
What do you dislike?
I would prefer an even tighter Microsoft Teams integration, making use of the normal "sharing" functionality and access permissions of Teams (i.e. sharing with individual people internally / externally, as well as group permissions) .
Recommendations to others considering the product:
When we rolled out Berrycast to users across the company, we also created a small elearning course and gave specific guidance on what videos need to be password protected, and which not. I think the tool itself is very good - however the productivity booster comes from educating people on its use cases.
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
I use Berrycast daily to explain complex tasks to co-workers - but we also use it to record elearning content that we need to include in courses. For me it is a relevant productivity driver, making it much faster to record a short video to explain next steps, context, etc - then to write it all out.
