| | | Citrix online group released a beta version of new product called [GoView|http://goview.com] this week. |
| | |
| | Here is my first look at this product. I would like to share a short demo recording I created using GoView and some tips and tricks I learned from this first try. |
| | |
| | h1. Install: |
| | |
 | | I signed up at [goview.com web site|https://goview.com/goldwyn/spring/register?method=register] |
| | |
| | I got it up and running with a few clicks and under a minute. Time may vary depending on your network and compute speed. |
| | |
| | h1. Record my first screen cast: |
| | |
| | I didn't have to read any document and I was able to create my first test screen cast without any trouble. And the performance is good. Please see [my test recording. |http://goview.com/?id=af038677-5ab7-49ae-9f62-aebf49a8211c ] |
| | |
| | h1. Things I like and things that differentiate this product: |
| | |
| | * Simplicity. I've used other similar products. This product doesn't have all the bells and whistles. But it is definitely the simplest and easiest one to use I've seen. |
| | |
| | * Video is uploaded while I am recording. I don't have to perform an additional upload step. |
| | |
| | * Ability to protect shared video with a password. |
| | |
| | * Easy and intuitive editing tool to cut out the unwanted portion. The tool also allows a slide show to be inserted which is useful for transition into another sequence. |
| | |
| | * Ability to download your recordings as MPEG-4 files. |
| | |
| | h1. Things I would like to see added: |
| | |
| | * Ability to embed views in my blog |
| | |
| | * Ability to zoom in and out of an area while recording. |
| | |
| | I was told that the GoView product team has these features on their list for future development consideration already. |
| | |
| | h1. Additional demo videos that may be helpful: |
| | |
| | These videos include audios. |

| | |
| | h1. Tips and Tricks: |
| | |
| | * If you use dual monitors, you may want to move your desktop icons and windows task bar to your secondary monitor, so that your primary monitor has a clean background for recording. |
| | |
| | * You can pause recording when you need to prepare the screen for the next sequence and resume when you are ready. |
| | |
| | h1. Your turn: |
| | |
| | GoView is *free* during the beta testing. Give it a try yourself at [http://goview.com] |
| | |
| | Send your feedback via the feedback link on help page. I got my response back in an hour. The team is listening. |
| | |
| | I'd love to hear your experience and see your own cool demos. |
