Are you a Software Publisher or Developer?

Making flash demos that show key features of your software will help you sell more of your software. As a software publisher, I already do that for my own products. You will find a sample demo made by me on this page. You can make such demos too (or even better ones) by using this software that I recommend.

On the other hand, if you don't have the time and inclication to learn new software, I can make demo tutorials for you too on an hourly charge basis.

To give you an example, you can get a 2 minute sample demo movie made for a bargain price. Two minutes is a lot of time to show selling features if used wisely. Just see the sample demo below and see how much this movie covers in first 2 minutes of its time. Please contact me using the contact link at the top for more details.

An Introduction to WhizFolders and its Document Files

I am a software publisher myself. I am going to show you a great Screen recording Tool for making software presentations. You can make demo movies that teach the use of a software product.

Here is a sample demo movie I made with this tool

I made it for my own software product called WhizFolders that is a Note Organizer and Outliner for Windows. Just click on the picture on the right and the demo should start.

You can download a trial version of this tool below. Also, if you decide to buy it, please remember to order from this page to get a 15% discount!

Best demo making software

The name of this screen recording tool is "Instant Demo" and I recommend it!

The best part that I like about it is the easy way to insert talk balloons that tell about a particular feature. The resizing of the balloons, the word wrapping and the automatic pause calculation saves me tons of time.

Instant Demo is extremely easy to use. But at the same time, it also has powerful features for advanced users too:


Powerful screen recording technology:

  • You just draw a rectangle on the screen or select a window to capture and start the recording
  • You can even capture the entire screen
  • Recording and playback is in true color
  • Even zooming and panning is supported in the Pro version
  • All mouse movements and clicks are recorded
  • Record live sound if necessary. You can even insert sound files later.
  • Pause feature lets you think and plan while doing a long recording.
  • Many hours of recording is possible. You can even combine recordings into one (Pro version) or split a long recording into multiple.
  • If you are a programmer, you can control the recording session from another application.

The final output creation has many options to add that touch that many advanced users would need:

  • The final output movie is in popular Adobe Flash Format that you can put on web sites. Even the HTML pages are generated so that you can simply copy the html code that shows the flash movie. Or, you can go slightly advanced and show demos in a popup window. See my own example above.
  • The playback is in a streaming mode so that the customers do not need to download the full file to view the demo. It starts playing immediately.
  • You get a choice of adding nice playback controls in many styles.
  • Very small file size is produced, at only about 0.1 MB of disk space per minute of video for desktop applications.
  • Automatic callout text navigation==allows the viewer to easily control the pace of your presentation (Pro Version). Frankly, I have not used this feature so far. It seems new. If you do, please let me know.
  • You can make mouse clicks clearer by special effects like a blow up. Similarly, mouse cursor can be enclosed in a halo so that the customer can follow it easily.
  • You can even scale down the size of your final movie output, different from original recordings and it is all done in high quality.
  • If you want, you can put the output demo movie in a self-running EXE file for easy download from the web sites or distributing on the CD. They can be run on any computer where Flash is installed (quite common these days).

I found the movie editing very powerful, yet intuitive and easy to use:

  • Just two windows, the movie playing window and the editing window where you can go to any frame and insert talk balloons, hyperlinks and other features.
  • You can quickly move back and forth between successive talk bubbles, a feature I use very often to see that the text is cohesive and makes sense together.
  • The pause time for talk bubbles is calculated automatically. You can override it or even set up a conversion factor (called delay scale) in advanced option so that the calculations are scaled up or down automatically and you don't have to change the auto calculated pause time again and again. In my case, I even put a Continue button on my own so that the readers who read fast can continue. Please see my Demo tutorials for my product WhizFolders and look at the top demo for an example.
  • You can add hotspots and insert hyperlinks in the movie to navigate to your web site pages (Pro version only).
  • If you want to edit the movie frame, you can use your favorite graphics editor.
  • You can add frame effects like fade-in/out, cross fade and highlight (Pro version).
  • You can undo and redo. Your original recording is always preserved even in multiple session editing.
  • You can even import AVI files.

As you can see, I have explored each and every feature of this powerful software above except a few already mentioned. I have yet to explore some other new features. I will keep updating this page. You are welcome to send your questions to me by the Contact link above.

Go to the product web site

Are you an expert at using a particular Software product, for example, Microsoft Excel or Microsoft Word?

Do you feel that others can benefit from your knowledge? Then you can try your hand at creating flash demo tutorials for that software. If you become good at it, there are many ways you can profit from this. If you have a web site, you can provide some teaser demos for the people to download so that they can learn some complicated features or tips and tricks for popular software. After showing a few tips, at the end of the demo, you can ask them to buy a full set of demos for some price and after payment, have them download them from a password protected section of the web site. Or, you can become a demo making consultant and approach big software publishers to make software demos for them. The possibilities are endless.
