For your team, screen recorders can be used for several reasons — from creating tutorials for your website to recording a recurring tech issue to sending your marketing team a quick note instead of an email.

Plus, we can’t forget about product demos and training videos that can be used by many departments on your team, from marketing to sales to customer service.

Below, let’s learn about the best free and paid screen recording options for your company — whether you work at a small business or enterprise company.

• Cost
• User interface and ease of use
• Built-in editing tools
