My Take
Educreations is a great interactive whiteboard tool for students and teachers alike. It is nice to be able to pause recording; however, it would also be nice to re-record if you have mistakes as opposed to a) living with flubs or b) starting the presentation over.
How I Use It
I have used the app often as a means to record flipped lessons in multiple content areas. My students use it often as one of their "go-to" tools when creating multimedia presentations. Some students have found creative ways to use a large number of slides to create stop-motion animation creations. As mentioned previously, I would like more options in re-recording and/or a "save/discard recording" option.

Fun interactive whiteboard and screencasting tool
It took about 1 class period to have students login to set up each student account tied to my class and begin getting familiar with it. After students were familiar with it, they were ready and wanted to work collaboratively on videos to help other students that needed step by step directions on solving math problems. The students that needed help really liked that they could go to our class library to view student created videos on the math they were working on. I liked that the advanced students were taking initiative to get creative on solving math problems in as many ways as possible to share with others and that lower students didn't just stay stuck with math problems or come straight to the teacher for help. They went to the class library that we created for student created tutorials. It really got all students, whatever their math or technology abilities might be, motivated to use it for their own learning needs. The only critique I had was when I had a problem with a student's login credentials, it took the company about 1 week to get back with me on it. I thought it might be a little quicker than that, the student had to wait around not being able to use it while all of the other students were excited about using it in class and at home.
