Where can I compare all available plans?

We have a few resources to help you choose the right plan. 

Our main Camtasia plans page has a detailed breakdown for each plan type. 

You can also visit your TechSmith account to compare plans, or purchase an upgrade with your current payment method on file. Costs may be pro-rated depending on your original purchase date. 

How do I upgrade my plan?

If you need access to more features available in a higher level plan, you can upgrade your plan in your TechSmith account.

Some popular features that are available in higher plans:
