What do you like best about Zight?

As a PM, I use CloudApp to annotate screenshots and get quick feedback from stakeholders. Since we all work remotely, CloudApp makes it easy to comment and mark up design mockups. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zight?

If I've opened CloudApp and I haven't quit the application, if I try and take a screenshot of a current screen, CloudApp will jump to another screen rather than stay on the intended screen. I've found that I have to quit the application and restart it in order for it to prompt the intended screen. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I wouldn't say I am trying to solve a problem, but rather adapting to working in a remote environment where whiteboards aren't present. I use CloudApp mainly to annotate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Zight?

Fast and reliable way to to capture and annotate screenshots of features in development and for reproducing bugs: a picture may be worth a thousand words, but few good CloudApp uploads can be the difference between a productive and sluggish meeting. I like not having to use separate tools for capturing, marking up, sharing, and having discussions about captured media clips. Having a centralized place to browse all my shared bug/feature demos is much preferable to uploading raw files separately to Github, Wikis, Slack, shared drives, etc. I've been using Cloudapp since 2016, it's one of the first applications I'll install on any new laptop. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zight?

If you're not proactive about tagging your pictures and organizing them in collections, it can be hard to find pictures you've made before. Occasionally large GIF uploads may make the app freeze and require a restart. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Zight:

I didn't realize how much time CloudApp was saving me until I set up a new computer after a summer of using it, and it took ~5 minutes to correctly capture, annotate, and annotate some pictures and clips of a new feature using a more manual system screenshot + upload to shared drive workflow. It's definitely worth giving Cloudapp a try on the free plan if you find that visual communication is important in your work! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

- Sharing in progress work with product managers and designers without requiring them to set up the development environment for feedback early in the process

- Showing how to reproduce a bug visually versus writing out a long text description about a complex UI interaction saves time + makes people more comfortable with reporting small bugs that might otherwise seem like too much trouble to share

- Making demos for internal presentations: The builtin annotation features (masking, opaque overlays) looks professional and have been suitable for slideshows, not just one off tickets and bug reports. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
