The annotation options are quick and easy to use for bringing attention to specific areas of your screenshots

**What do you dislike about Zight?**

So far I haven't found anything I don't like.

**What problems is Zight solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I need to add annotations to screenshots often, and the OS's built in screen capture tool doesn't seem to have an easy way to do that.

  ### 2. Quick, easy, and convenient

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 06, 2020

I love being able to edit the images that I screenshot and easily share it right after.

**What do you dislike about Zight?**

The limitations of the GIF timeframe that is present.

**What problems is Zight solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I'm helping my clients have a better sense of the issues they're having and the solutions they can use by showing Cloudapp images.

  ### 3. Best software to share workflows

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Manoj Kumar B. | Web developer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 28, 2020

**What do you like best about Zight?**

Connectivity with cloud for all the screenshots, videos and GIFs I've made.

**What do you dislike about Zight?**

Uploading videos takes a lot of time sometimes, not sure if it's because of my upload speed or because of Cloudapp trying to get my files to the cloud.

**Recommendations to others considering Zight:**

This is the best enterprise level sharing software. Try it out.

**What problems is Zight solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I'm able to share workflows and tutorials on 'how to navigate' on a certain software.

  ### 4. Love it!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Pamela C. | H, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 09, 2020

**What do you like best about Zight?**

It is so easy to use and does everything I need.

**What do you dislike about Zight?**

There is nothing I don't like about using the free version.

**What problems is Zight solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We use it for IT support with screen capture and website updates with screen grabs.

  ### 5. One Click multiple share.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Wasim R. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 19, 2020

**What do you like best about Zight?**

The New "Click anywhere for Fullscreen Capture" Image function in the latest update is massively handy.

**What do you dislike about Zight?**

Nothing as Such. The App is still the go to Capturer app for me and my colleagues.

**What problems is Zight solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Quick Share with instant link generation. Be it for a Video or Image file.

  ### 6. First time using CloudApp for work and it's awesome!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 24, 2020

**What do you like best about Zight?**

I love that it automatically detects screenshots and creates a link for me on the spot. Super helpful for communicating with our customers too. Annotating the screenshots with text and shapes is also incredibly useful for technical support.

**What do you dislike about Zight?**

So far I've enjoyed using the app and haven't found much to dislike just yet.

**Recommendations to others considering Zight:**

If you need to help users visualize their process and direct them effectively, this could be an effective supplemental tool to what you're already doing.

**What problems is Zight solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are helping customers visualize their accounts and troubleshoot their own issues with clarity. I've realized the benefit of displaying information in multiple ways, sometimes a text instruction or knowledge base article is just too much for a customer to spend time on...  a visualization supplied with a quick link via CloudApp can show them exactly what to do or where to go instantly.

  ### 7. Great Product!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**What problems is Zight solving and how is that benefiting you?**

- Save time utilizing the snipping tool which most computers have to easily take a screenshot and supply it to whoever needs it. Saves time in my daily activities.

  ### 9. Quick and Easy to use

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 11, 2019

**What do you like best about Zight?**

Immediate access to video and screenshot sharing.  Non-flash video player.

**What do you dislike about Zight?**

Some really nice features are locked behind a paywall, but the subscriptions do not seem to be overpriced.

**What problems is Zight solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Able to easily share screenshots and videos of defects discovered for developers to troubleshoot and solve.

  ### 10. Switched from record.it and so glad I did

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 02, 2020

**What do you like best about Zight?**

LOVE the screen recording capabilities. I'm a slow adopter so it's hard to move me from something if I already have a process that worked, but I finally got to the point where I really wanted to be able to record my voice in the screen recording as well and gave this a try. Turns out it's got all the same functionality of record.it, but MORE, as well as a more beautiful and easy to use interface.

**What do you dislike about Zight?**

I still don't love using it for Screenshots yet. I don't like sending a link. I use skitch currently and I love that I take the screenshot, annotate however I need to, can copy the annotated image, drop it where it needs to go, and then remove it. It doesn't save anywhere, it's not a link, it's just an image which is exactly what I usually want/need. But again, that's just my own personal preference and it's possible I'll fully migrate down the road if I can adjust to the links for images thing.

**Recommendations to others considering Zight:**

Just give it a try! You'll be pleasantly surprised.

**What problems is Zight solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I run product support for a very technically involved BI platform. Instead of having to write out descriptions of what I'm talking about, risking being misunderstood or lost in translation, it's so much easier to just take a quick minute long recording showing them what I'm talking about as I explain it, making it super clear to our customers all the while getting the help they need. We currently don't have the bandwidth for phone support but the recordings make me feel better about that since it's basically like a super condensed support call, but on our own timeline.

  ### 11. Amazing app with incredible versatility for data capture

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 06, 2020

**What do you like best about Zight?**

Ease of the point and click as well as the ability to easily capture videos with audio dictation

**What do you dislike about Zight?**

The authentication process and lack of ability to integrate with SSO.  It often takes multiple attempts to get access after the restart.

**Recommendations to others considering Zight:**

Try it and you will be convinced.

**What problems is Zight solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Data capture and user training.  The video capture ability is game-changing.  No longer do I have to create detailed scripts.  I can easily do a 1-2 minute video with dictation without fancy software,

  ### 12. Great help for my school work and presentations!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Higher Education | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 08, 2020

**What do you like best about Zight?**

I like how i can record gifs from my videos / animations on Powerpoint and then upload it so easily into my documents and slides. Simple to use!

**What do you dislike about Zight?**

perhaps the quality of the gifs arent as good as i liked it to be, but its still very useful which is why i use it so much :)

**What problems is Zight solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Visualizing of data to others has become way easier since i can show them in gifs rather than just placing screenshots there

  ### 13. Has improved communication and productivity in our distributed team

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Prakash M. | Co-founder & CTO, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 16, 2020

**What do you like best about Zight?**

Frictionless and simple steps to take screenshots or video.   The annotation feature is very useful.   Helpful to have the history of screenshots at hand for reference as needed.   Having the option of GIF or MP4 for video is good as GIF is sometimes a better option for embedding / auto-play in documentation.

**What do you dislike about Zight?**

New clips and content after annotation is supposed to get automatically copied to clipboard, which helps quickly paste the content elsewhere.   Since an update to CloudApp a few months back, this auto-copy-to-clipboard does not work consistently for me.  So after clipping content, I often need to select the "Copy Content" option from context menu, to paste it.  Not sure if it is a general problem affecting other users.  (I use macOS Mojave 10.14.6 right now).

**What problems is Zight solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We have a distributed engineering team, with most people across two offices, with different timezones, etc.   CloudApp has improved productivity when we communicate between engineers and product managers about development work in process -- sharing videos of work in process, getting feedback about it, etc.

  ### 14. Use it every day!

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Real Estate | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 06, 2020

**What do you like best about Zight?**

You record. You hit done. You have a shareable link immediately! You can easily annotate photos or share large videos.

**What do you dislike about Zight?**

There doesn't seem to be an option to save all of your drops locally (automatically storing a local copy onto an external hard drive for backups for instance).

**Recommendations to others considering Zight:**

If you're writing long emails in Zendesk, consider using CloudApp and sending drops instead.

**What problems is Zight solving and how is that benefiting you?**

An annotated image or a short and friendly video is a much faster way to communicate with high fidelity than a long email could. It also helps improve your relationships with your customers.

There are many ways for you to save time, you can do regular screenshots or record, the great part is that all that info you recorded is stored safely.

While using two monitors, sometimes the screenshot freezes mid-range and I need to redo it.

**Recommendations to others considering Zight:**

Screenshots or video recording of processes is vital, you need to look for the options that better address your needs.

**What problems is Zight solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Coaching documentations, we always need visual proof of the data we reviewed.

  ### 41. CloudApp does what I need! Saves time and just makes it so much easier!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Internet | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 21, 2020

**What do you like best about Zight?**

It actually works to select and post a screenshot. Also, the videos are easy to create and the interface is easy to markup.

**What do you dislike about Zight?**

It would be even better if it automatically downloaded the images and videos to a standard directory.

**What problems is Zight solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I used to use the native Windows snip and it's just too buggy. This just works.

  ### 42. Host of features

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

  ### 43. Mostly works fine, fast upload, however, the record option could be better

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 10, 2020

**What do you like best about Zight?**

The uploads are quick, the quality of the images and videos is quite good.

**What do you dislike about Zight?**

The video recorder of the latest version doesn't let you record screen on the fullscreen mode of the browser, you have to enter window mode to do that, that's very inconvenient.

**What problems is Zight solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I use it daily to send screenshots and videos to customers and internal teams, it's a good tool that mostly works without any issues.

  ### 44. CloudApp makes training so much easier

**Reviewed Date:** July 28, 2020

I love the clear, HD quality of the videos that I create. I use CloudApp to show my team members how to navigate certain tasks by creating quick and easy drops.

I don't think there are any so far. I have not come across anything I don't like so far.

**What problems is Zight solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Now that we are mostly remote, I can easily show someone how to do a task without setting up a meeting. They can learn on their own time and it's easy to use.

  ### 46. 10/10 Review

**Reviewed by:** Sam M. | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 29, 2020

**What do you like best about Zight?**

So fast to use and share screen shots, also very handy that it auto copies to the clipboard

I do also love how fast it is, doesn't overtake the desktop or get in the way.

**What do you dislike about Zight?**

screen shots always pop up where i would rather just have the link copied to the clip board

**What problems is Zight solving and how is that benefiting you?**

sharing issues which would have taken 3/4 sentences to share.

It would be very handy if there was a short cut to have it saved to your desktop
