The right choice depends on the output, the people using it and what happens when it needs an update.
Record Wow suits recurring walkthroughs, customer explanations and training material. Keep the recording, written instructions and review process in a free workspace, with downloadable files for later use.

Check Aqua Demo directlyTry a real task
Import a realistic recording, trim it, add a second clip and export a review copy. Check the operating system, project format and any plugin requirements before moving a whole library.
Change a real detail in the source material. Time the work needed to correct the explanation, inspect the final output and share the revision. This reveals more about everyday use than the first polished demo.
Check that your Aqua Demo plan and permissions allow export. Save a supported video or image file and keep your original project as a backup. A hosted link alone is not a portable editing project.
Import the media, arrange the explanation and add written steps. Review captions and screenshots against the source so the guide says what the recording actually shows.
Ask a teammate to follow the instructions and review the result. Check access from the recipient’s account before moving more material or replacing an existing workflow.
