Tip #1: If you are recording the steps to reproduce a bug, it might be better to use Chrome Recorder instead.
Tip #2: Zoom, and Microsoft Teams are cloud-based services, so consider whether an option such as Snagit, Loom or Clipchamp that records locally is more appropriate. If you record with Zoom, post-production editing will be required
Tip #3: Sometimes, all you need is a GIF to demonstrate something. For this, you can record one with a tool like Gifox (MacOS only).
