Strengths

Amazing. Best screen recorder on PC
This software is really easy and intuitive to use. You can get high quality AVI video
Especially love that you can use it for free within limits

Weaknesses

For no reason it garbles audio, specifically the program and not hardware
It stopped recording after 8 minutes
The only problem is you cannot record with a microphone
