TechSmith recently announced the release of Camtasia 2018 and there’s much to cheer. Among the improvements in version 2018:
Enhanced Library & Subscription Service Offering Thousands More
TechSmith made huge strides in Camtasia 9 when it improved the free assets in the Library. You’ll be pleasantly surprised to find dozens of additional resources available for use right away. There’s also a paid subscription to an assets library where you’ll have access to hundreds of thousands of additional royalty-free videos, intros, music, and more.
Themes
Camtasia has never had a way to quickly apply the look and feel of one object across a large project. In version 2018, Themes allow you to create, save, and apply styles with custom color and font preferences.
Behaviors
TechSmith added a few new behaviors giving you even more object-animating power than ever.
Faster Rendering
One of the major complaints about Camtasia is how long it takes to Render (Share) a project when you’re finished with your production work. Camtasia 2018 promises 50% faster rendering speeds than version 9!
The Price of Progress
The upgrade price for Camtasia 2018 is $99.50. if you recently ordered the older version of Camtasia, no worries. According to TechSmith, “TechSmith has a 30-day grace period. If you purchased Camtasia 9 or 3 on or after May 18, 2018, you will receive an email from TechSmith with instructions of how to get your free upgrade to Camtasia 2018. If you’re under a maintenance program, you are also eligible for a free upgrade of Camtasia 2018.”
