Zight (formerly CloudApp) is a solution with a community of over 4M users, offering visual asynchronous communication, eliminating the need to use different applications for screenshots, GIFs, screen recordings, and web recordings.
We've been using Loom too in its early days. Loom vs CloudApp really boils down to personal preference. If you're using screen recording more, then Loom, if you take a lot of screenshots and annotate them, then CloudApp. The pricing is very similar, with CloudApp a bit more …
It's probably easier to do recordings via zoom right now. In my opinion, if CloudApp could get the Video Editor & Trimmer to actually work properly, that would be incredible. I created some videos, spent a ton of time to edit them exactly how I wanted, cutting many segments. …
The closest product to CloudApp that I've used has been Photoshop. Though, they're both very different. Photoshop has better editing qualities and abilities. Whereas, I appreciate the nimbleness, efficiency and flexibility that CloudApp has to offer. CloudApp also allows …
I like Loom better personally. It is easier to use in a creative way and made to be fun. CloudApp is more serious and better for professional settings.
The tools I have used in the past weren't available in the tool selector! Basically, I've mostly used Jing which I found to be quite clunky. The user interface is unnecessarily complicated and sharing files is more difficult.
Trying CloudApp once was enough to see how much more …
I have Snagit, but I find the interface a nuisance and resent the amount of time it takes to do simple annotations. The same can be said for Voila, and a few others I can not longer remember.
The only other competitor I'm aware of is Droplr. I liked the clean, white interface of CloudApp as well as the rest of their user interface. It's been fairly intuitive to figure out. The one thing Droplr had integrated before CloudApp was "work spaces" where you could easily …
In the world of screenshot taking and sharing, there isn't much. Jing, AwesomeScreenshot, and others have been used in the past, but CloudApp is the one with the best UX, has the best-integrated capture and sharing features, and the best cross-platform compatibility (desktop …
Dropbox is nice, but if you try to share to an email address outside of your domain name, there are additional setting you need to do per image. That’s too tedious for quick chatting at work.
I need to point out that I love Snagit. It's a fantastic product, but there are different use-cases. CloudApp for me is about quick and efficient sharing. Snagit doesn't really allow for that. Yes, they have a cloud sharing option, but for the entirety of me using the program, …

Chose Zight
We have used more screen grab/screenshot technologies than I care to remember. Many had one or two things that worked fairly well. the problem was having to annotate, adjust and edit out sensitive information using multiple programs just took too long but I thought I had no …
It's very fast and allows to share images and gifs (which none of the tools I tried allows). In addition, it allows you to edit screenshots, which is essential to our job.
I like how in Jing allows you to choose how you want to export the content and it is simple to find everything. However, cloud app helps to do a lot of things that were never a possibility with Jing, such as blurring content, face bubble on videos and it generates links much …
Droplr worked great for us, until it didn't. After a new OS X version was released the app stopped working. We have not had this problem with Cloud app.
