• (2023-04-19) Nick K: Can't rate - as it's no longer available. As of today? 4/19/23?
• (2021-07-23) Robert Felton: IT is my favorite tool to use....when it works. Randomly it doesn't work and it ends up wasting so much time.
• (2021-05-31) Syed Asad: I recorded a video, took me an hour to record and when when it started uploading, went to 100%, the app crashed and my file was deleted. Without me ever pressing the delete button. Cherry on top of the cake is the fact that the file is unrecoverable, great! Excellent product smh. Absolutely loved you guys, but when I really needed the product, it dropped a deuce on my lap.
• (2020-11-06) Dragonsheen: it is good and stuff but it makes my computer lag for some reason... i dont know why but it is good anyways
• (2020-10-21) Craig Martin: I wish I could go lower than one star. This app works for like 30 seconds then crashes in the middle of my recording. Would not recommend.
• (2020-09-14) Aprajita Kochhar: great job
• (2020-09-01) Andrew D: Used this extension 3 years ago and just went to go use it again and not only have there been zero updates, it actually seems to have gotten worse given after clicking record, NOTHING happens. Might as well be abandonware from what I can tell.
• (2020-08-21) Elizabeth: It worked but I was r=trying to make a YouTube video where I react to my show and the was no audio my screen was glitching and when i turned it off it worked fine so doe s anyo\one know how toe improve this if yo can please tell me.
• (2020-08-17) Simply Sasha “Sasha”: At first it seemed pretty cool until it was time for me to download it and found out i have to pay for that. They make it seem like it's free to do the whole thing. Waste of my time... smh.
• (2020-08-17) Lavender Stars: I Havent Used It Yet But Im Going To Do Draw My Life For Youtube And Lets Hope This Will Work
• (2020-08-13) Sasha: How do I turn my sound off?
• (2020-07-26) Daniel Chirillo: Excrement!
• (2020-04-16) Jasmine Morales: I downloaded it, when I did I watched a tutorial and when i tried it out for myself I clicked "start recording" and it didn't give me a count down like it said it would and it didn't record neither me nor my screen
• (2020-03-05) Julie Morris: I have tried for the last time to use this extension. It loses more videos due to 'corrupt' recordings than I can describe. I am SO disappointed it screwed up another video demo I did today. I appreciate the try from Wistia to create this extension, but this is the worst.
• (2020-02-27) It's really great, and it's easy to use. Every 4 or 5 recordings seem to crash and I lose an entire video session. So better crash handling. I have a good computer, but they need to figure out how to prevent a 10 minute video from disappearing, corrupting (as I've been told by the extension) or not letting me finish the recording (It gets stuck in recording, and nothing will stop it except turning off the extension)
• (2020-02-20) Bill Cronin: The web video editor leaves a lot to be desired. It's really hard to see what frame you're on, anytime you click on the timeline the entire clip jumps, it doesn't work well for large video files, and there are very few options for transitions or layouts. Nice idea, but the video editor needs a lot of love.
• (2019-11-11) Calvin Daly: Amazing perfect for making youtube videos and love the editing highly recommend for anyone trying to start a youtube channel.
• (2019-10-30) Ultimate Statistics: THIS IS LITTERALY TRASH WHY YOU CHARGE SO MUCH I HATE THIS STUPID THING I JUST WANT TO RECORD!?!
• (2019-10-18) John Fuller: It's a RAM hog and it doesn't work half the time. I read their troubleshooting page, but everything appears to set correctly with troubleshooting. Too much effort to get it up and running.
• (2019-07-14) Austin: Very Misleading I add this and create an account believing that it was going to be free or at least cheap. After i record a 15 minute video and upload it so i can download it, I get told that i have to pay for a premium account. Which is $25 a MONTH. Its fine if you want to charge that much for something you can do for free with any editing software, but at least mention that you aren't able to download videos without dipping into your trust funds.
• (2019-06-02) Anna Berentsen: Simply didn't work for me. The blue icon never turned pink, the "my videos" page was just filled with marketing material...the user interface is so minimal that it's impossible to know if it was loading, or if I had done something wrong, or if it was a bug with the software. If you are going to dumb everything down so much you have to make the software smarter.
• (2019-03-21) Ryan Yuhnke: Does anyone know of any great alternatives to soapbox? I have had a very poor experience with Wistea and unfortunately I signed up for the 1 year plan :( They don't have a customer service department, live chat, or any method to help customers problem shoot other than submitting a ticket and praying they answer. It is impossible to get anyone on the phone to assist at this company so you have to be very tech savvy and a true DIY person to have success in my opinion.
• (2019-02-24) Nikolay Tranov: You cannot download the video without paying. Couldn't figure out how to just record the screen without webcam or sound..
• (2019-02-18) I havent used it yet but i was wondering if there was a way to remove the facecam cuz i just need a screen recording...
• (2019-02-13) Kirk R.: Dumbly, there is either a free version, or a $99/MONTHLY version, and nothing in between. Want to simply download your video but not use any other spapbox feature? That will be $1,188 a year lol. Shortsighted, considering there are plenty of people like myself who'd like it's simplicity for vlogging. There are other solutions very very similar, that are $24 a YEAR (only 98% less $ lol).. And though I like soapbox more, I'll have to settle on one of those.
• (2019-02-05) SKNameless: When I grant permissions it doesnt let me. It says error then moves me to the next step, even though I cant even use it because permissions arent having the ability to be granted even though Im granting them. I wont say I hate it because I have havent used it and simply because other reviews are saying its a fine screen recorder, thats why I have it as "Disliked it".
• (2019-02-05) Lauren Koenig: I could never hear myself when i watched it after i filmed
• (2019-01-16) Rens Knoors: Very usefull tool. But it's unreasonably expensive in my opinion. For future projects I'll be looking for alternatives just because of the price.
• (2019-01-10) This program didnt save as the right file type and now i cannot post this on youtube! thanks a lot!
• (2018-12-29) I loved this, but sometimes it can be slow or the audio is not very good. Also i would love if i can do live streams with this, please tell me if there is a way!
• (2018-12-14) I can't tell if it tracks video views. How do I access the analytics? I'll change my rating if someone tells me how. It's really hard to find this info!
• (2018-12-02) Scare Bares MSP: It was really good and easy to use, but I was upset that I could not turn off face-cam. I'm upset. So maybe make facecam and microphone optional?
• (2018-10-05) Meghan Skrepenski: super simple to use...first time with tips I got it down! Soapbox...here's your new commercial ;) lol https://soapbox.wistia.com/videos/snGIqSczeQ
• (2018-09-23) UnicTheUnicorn: Me and my friend want to make YouTube videos but it records our faces! We ONLY want it to record the screen, not us too. The other thing about this problem is that we explored through it a little, and theres no button that ONLY records the screen.
• (2018-07-15) DJNinja: I Love This Extension! The Only Problem With This Extension Is I Can't Record. Can Someone Please Help?
• (2018-07-01) Night Marilyn: it did not let me post
• (2018-05-31) Dan Freund: I recommend this plugin several times a week. As far as building connections with prospects, I've found nothing better (other than in-person).
• (2018-05-15) Tom McDonald: simple and effective, i am a non technical CEO of a small business and i use soapbox to produce educational webinars which i then send to the marketing team to post. all technology should be as user friendly and effective as soapbox
• (2018-05-15) Candie Mitchell: This is a fantastic tool for anyone looking to capture both their face and screen in a video format. Really impressive tool, both the free and paid versions are awesome. Go, download it now. Good for personal or business use.
• (2018-05-14) Caroline Drain: J'adore cet outil! Avec zéro connaissances en montage vidéo, mon équipe commerciale peut enregistrer, monter et ajouter des CTAs à des vidéos personnalisées pour leurs clients & prospects. Intégration de la vidéo dans un email ultra-facile (un simple copier-coller) et hop! on a la vignette de la vidéo avec bouton play. Et en plus, il y a toute la puissance, la créativité et le support de l'équipe de Wistia derrière ce petit plug-in. Un must-have!
• (2018-05-11) Scott Stanley: What an awesome tool that Wistia has given us to connect to our clients on a personal level. I've never been one to be comfortable in front of a camera but Soapbox has made it fun for me! I highly recommend Soapbox!
• (2018-05-11) Brecht H: Great tool, works like a charm!
