Hello, I am looking at ways to create short videos for educating users. I couldn’t find anything to recent. I would like to use SharePoint/PowerApps for the delivery of the videos. Any recommendations on low-cost video creating/editing software that is easy to use? Open to purchasing a turn-key product as well. Thanks!

If you’re on M365, have you looked at Stream? You can create do screen recordings and even include camera/microphone if you want, and it’s all included in your subscription. Tons of other options to do in various other formats as well.

We do have M365 and I have done a couple quite a while ago. I will check that out again and see how easy it is to manage. If you have used it do you have any tips on how to store/structure and share the videos? Thanks!

I’ve found it’s super-easy and intuitive. On the main landing page, you can just click ‘Screen recording’ and then choose whether or not you want video/microphone and exactly what you want to capture (screen vs. tab vs. whatever), and then off you go. The only thing I don’t like is that it auto-saves to your personal OneDrive page, but you can easily click the title and change the name and move it to whatever team/site you want:

Stream is backed by SharePoint online (SPO).
Screen recorder is fine, but if you want something more, OBS (Open Broadcaster Software) will do. It’s also free.

I use Power Director the older on prem version you can still find if you hunt for it on their website. Also with a lot of new systems a watered down version comes for free.
I have used it for ~10 years for internal and external videos for our Border Collie Rescue group
Shameless plug for the site

I think you can find a lot AI tools for creating YT shorts. I’ve used free makeshorts.ai and it makes shorts automatically, not perfect but quiet good for posting.

Hey, have you tried Vmaker AI Video Editor? This is the one I tried: Award Winning AI Video Editor: Free, Online, No Watermark. It makes it really easy for me to create short videos.
