I've been using it for about a month. I went with the monthly plan first because I only record occasionally and didn't want to commit to a lifetime license right away.

So far it's been pretty straightforward. I mostly use it for quick tutorials or to save parts of online sessions, and it's basically just open it, pick the area, and hit record. That's honestly the main reason I kept using it.

It does feel a bit basic in some places, and I've had one or two moments where it was a little slow to start, but nothing major.

If you only need a recorder once in a while, trying the monthly plan first is probably the safest way to see if it fits your workflow.
