Pros
*Provides a range of tools to assist in creating presentations: a ‘whiteboard’ for text; a ‘drawing board’ for drawing graphs, shapes, etc.; a ‘web’ feature for displaying websites during the presentation; the ability to insert verbal narration and/or webcam video; the ability to show your screen in presentations; and the ability to insert and show PowerPoint slides
*Has a ‘Slides Note’ feature that allows you to input notes and follow those notes as you record your presentations; the notes are not shown in presentations — they are for your eyes only
*Webcam or screen feed can be shown in presentations as full screen or in a corner
*You can output recorded presentations as WMV or AVI, or upload them directly online to PresentationTube’s website to share with others
*Comes with always-free (Lite) and paid (Pro) versions

Cons
*Cannot insert images or videos into presentations (aside from using the ‘web’ feature to show images or videos from websites)
*Has no offline ‘Help’ at all, and online help is limited.
*Requires you to register to download the Lite version
*The restrictions in the Lite version are a bit of a deal-killer, such as only being able to create a presentations up to 15 mins

#10, #4 - Different operating systems are appropriate for different purposes and users. As a longterm Windows user I found myself employed in a Mac environment at one point. For what they were doing, sales and distribution, it was the wrong OS, but it gave me a familiarity that was useful in music production. Windows would have been more efficient due to easy compatibility with suppliers, sales force and customers. The ability to customize and specific purpose a network would make Linux the appropriate choice in a focused endeavor staffed by tech savvy power-users. It's a matter of using the right tools for the job, not one OS over another. Just my 2 cents. I use all three.
I didn't review or rate this software as it's nothing I need. I just hate to see fanboy discussions dilute the usefulness of the comments here. The voting is already meaningless to me because of the folks that thumbs down everything they don't want or need. If it's not something you're interested in, don't vote. Ok, so it's 3 cents. I won't comment again unless I have something to say about the particular software offering.

The one unique feature about PresentationTube has the most risk to you. It’s this feature: The viewer can select a slide thumbnail image and the video will play at that point. Cool. But that feature only works when it's hosted on PresentationTube servers.

The risk is, if you embed hosted videos on your own website site or link to it, you are at the mercy of a very small foreign business. This ain’t no YouTube Company, ya know. They can upsell / charge later, go out of business, have server outage, etc. and there are no business terms or service level agreements in place to protect you.

Now that you're aware of the risk, keep in mind that using this Pro version has a term #3 above "Strictly Personal Use" Only. And, the readme file says "1) Strictly non-commercial usage". So if it's hosted on their site, they can remove your video anytime.

Also your video output will display a huge PresentationTube logo on the bottom right-side, and it's not transparent. PresentationTube website terms page indicates that the lite version produces a PresentationTube logo on the users video. Newsflash, so does this Pro version.

@ 15. Giovanni, great as everyday, but nothing of what you mentioned is supposed to open PPT within the tool window, and synchronize slides, webcam, white board, drawing board, and the browser and generate a video presentation. The majority, even Camtasia, are screen capture/recording tools, require knowledge and skills to achieve what you can do with PresentationTube Recorder.
