Screencastomatic
The Solo Deluxe version allows editing ($18 per year). For a quick look at the editing tools, watch this clip.
Screencastify
*This tool is a Chrome extension that will save your video into a Google Drive folder. The free "Light Weight" version does not support editing. However, it has some good options (audio, webcam). The Premium version is $24 per year.
Google Drive is free cloud storage similar to Box and Dropbox. You do not need a gmail account to have a Drive account, but folks typically do. I suggest watching a Lynda course on this product.
Adobe Captivate
Advanced cloud based screen capture program. The 2019 version supports 360 and VR support. I believe faculty have free access to the Adobe Suite. This is way beyond what I need at this time.
