Droplr vs. GoReact vs. Zight

Droplr is most appropriate when taking quick screenshots and sharing them internally. It's outrageously easy to take a Droplr link, paste it in Slack, and have the screenshot unfurl.

Droplr is least suited to sharing assets between you and a client. If you're sharing a screenshot, you have to paste the link, then copy the image that's featured within the link to share the asset. You can't guarantee that a client would actually click on a deliverable link, so it takes up time and storage space.

It is very well-suited for business presentations. The students improve their presentation skills tremendously using GoReact and the feedback from the instructor. It is less suited for very technical areas such as operations research and management science.

I appreciate when I can take screenshots, and send them to coworkers. When I need to illustrate when something is not working properly, I can easily take a screenshot of the error message, and send it off to IT. This way they are able to resolve the issue much sooner. I will receive website leads, take a screenshot of the lead, and forward it on to the sales team

• Making screenshots and recordings couldn't be simpler. I use these features constantly and it helps me to improve the user experience prior to user testing and delivery. The users can actually see how these functions will work and can replay/review them easily.
• The process of sharing files is simple and the desktop app, as well as browser extensions, make it a real pleasure to use.
• The tagging and categorization of boards, as well as the ability to share these collections with others, is invaluable. This allows me to easily share, for example, a large number of concepts at once so I do not have to send multiple links to customers and collaborators.

• Records lessons well
• Able to make concrete comments on their performance
• Able to print or save and put on the GF transcript records
• Easy to sue and navigate

Incentivized

• Ability to capture media: screenshots, GIFs and video (including webcam if you'd like)
• Automatically hosting the images, so these can be previewed by others (this saves *so* much space!)
• A generous freemium account which gives you a taste of what's possible
• Cool UI -- CloudApp is really pleasant to use, especially on iOS
• Great marketing!
• Great integrations with tools like Slack which automatically preview the screenshots!

• The windows app is not very reliable, it has some bugs still that are being worked out.
• The screen selection for video would be better if you didn't have to share the entire screen or window. It would be nice if you could record only a selected area like with a screenshot.
• When taking a screenshot with the chrome extension it would be nice if it were more clear what area your mouse was in right after clicking. For instance, highlight the cross-hair and dim the rest of the screen. The screen would lighten only in the area you select.

• Bigger screen of an individual signing
• Do not see the closed captions if necessary
• Do not combine gradebook with My Course at RIT and Blackboard at UR

• The one thing I can think of is making it easier to save images, videos, and GIFs to your desktop. This requires a few extra steps and it's typically easiest for me to pull an image directly from my desktop into an email or knowledge base article.

It solves a lot of everyday problems in our creative department and enhanced our workflow.

In all honesty I don't even have time to look for an alternative to CloudApp at this point in our business. CloudApp works for what we had planned to use it for and unless a competing service that offers the same quality and ease-of-use along with video screen capture comes out I will renew indefinitely.

Because I find it especially easy to work with, compared to alternatives.

If someone is used to using internal screen capture software Zight may have a small learning curve. Luckily, once you get the hang of your new capture method, it is a quick process. Updates can be tedious. Although I am glad the team is working on the application and consistently improving it.

I've only had to reach out to Droplr support a couple of times and they've been quick to getting back to me.

I would give cloud app a 9/10 score on overall support mostly because I have had very little need of any support at all being that the tool was designed almost to use itself. In my opinion this level of forethought is equal to customer support. As of yet I've only had one real problem with cloud app which was the loss of a 20 minute video screen capture. Unfortunately I have not had the time to contact support about this loss. The only other minor issues that I confronted was within the initial set up which I was able to resolve via their website's support pages.

I was extremely satisfied with how quick and easy the implementation of Cloudapp was on my MacIntosh using MacOS Sierra was, along with how amazingly fast I was able to be up and going with the tool. most often with sass tools we are lucky if we can use 50% of the features without having to have consultations and a ton of back-and-forth email on how to use other features of the product. Cloud app has made it extremely user-friendly with almost no need for customer support. To My business, that equals time savings which as most business owners know, can be far more valuable than a few dollars saved.

There are pros and cons to each and every one of them. To be honest, I use them all for different scenarios. Snagit is a desktop app and is a bit more heavy-duty. I don't necessarily need that all the time. CloudApp is the most comparable - it is also good in its own way

We looked at Voicethread because the university has access to it but it does not even come close to functionality of GoReact.

Zight is more of an all-in-one visual communication tool — it supports screenshots, GIFs, and video recording, whereas Loom is primarily optimized for video messaging. When compared to Loom, Zight offers more robust video editing and lets you annotate while recording. Zight
AI is a major differentiator: Zight uses AI to generate video summaries, chapters, automatic transcriptions, titles, and even translates in 50+ languages. Loom has AI features too (summaries, filler-word removal), but Zight’s feel more powerful for documentation use. Snagit is not cloud native which makes it a bit harder to use. Zight uses links to easily share content with others.

• I use Droplr every day and it's been a huge boost for productivity since I never need to think about how a screenshot will be shared. It's just built in and so easy.
• I really wish Droplr had an Android app.

Incentivized

• Reduced my time for providing feedback by at least 30%
• Increased the likelihood students would see and use my feedback
• Increased the likelihood they would watch themselves on video

Incentivized

• The cost to buy and use in bit more than the output I got so far
• The features and user friendly UI this app provided is worth using it and getting more contents sharing done in less time
• The business criteria has met with the use of this app well
