What users say
Shottr
"Free Mac stills pick; not a full recorder suite — CleanShot still wins that feature set."

If you are looking for something cheaper, Shottr is definitely the one Shottr is great if you just want something lightweight and free Fantastic product that is underpriced
OBS Studio
"Free cross-platform screencaster; crash and lag reports pull UX down."
Pros
ShareX and OBS are free and open-source Works really well
