"Daily used tool!"
Zight is a great tool to have in your digital toolbox. It's handy, it's fast, and it is a good memory base as well. I use it every day.

What do you like best about Zight?

I love being able to do demos via video share instead of screenshots. It's also great to be able to only share a portion of my screen to do demos vs. my entire screen. That's a great feature! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zight?

I haven't run into any snags with CloudApp yet, although it appears there are limitations with the basic version vs. the upgraded so I'm using it sparingly for now. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

It's great to be able to start with CloudApp for team training instead of doing phone training as a 1st step. I've also been able to use screen videos to show internal issues that need to be fixed. A lot of the issues are technical so they need to be shown vs. explained. Cloudapp has been great for that! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Zight?

I like that I don't have to save an image to my computer and then upload it into my email or other online location. One shortcut and my image is captured and ready to share anywhere I can post a link. Saves a lot of time and makes it easy to convey directions to customers and clients. As they say, a picture is worth a thousand words. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zight?

I would like to be able to change the text font when adding annotations to images. Perhaps there is a way that I haven't discovered yet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

CloudApp makes it much easier to show someone a solution to an issue rather than just telling them. Saves so much time capturing an image versus typing a long paragraph describing steps to solve the issue. Showing is better than telling. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Zight?

Very comprehensive tool...I have researched many Screenshot tools and compared them...CloudApp is robust as a FREEMIUM tool before you need to upgrade.

It is also strong as a cross-platform tool across both Mac and PC for real-time collaboration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zight?

Do not love how the Freemium version defaults to only copying the LINK to your clipboard - if you want to automatically copy the CONTENT then you would need to upgrade....(but to be fair...thru a 4-part click-stream, you are still able to copy the content - it just isn't automatic without having Premium). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Multi-platform image + video + annotation use cases. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Zight?

I like that this app has many different features, ie screenshot, GIF, annotations, videos, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zight?

The app crashes so often that it's basically useless at times and gets in the way of my workflow. I'd gladly cancel my services if there were another tool that offers everything, but there isn't. I've spoken to customer service multiple times and even got on a call with them to have the app replaced (I had done so myself several times before getting on a call with them). I use my computer for work stuff only: internet use, emailing, and zoom calls. I have a few different programs on my computer, but nothing too extreme. I have an insane amount of memory and storage, so it's not that. There really is no reason this should be happening, which was confirmed by the sales team the last time we spoke. The sales team has always been lovely but the tool itself needs improvements. Even submitting this review requires a screenshot of me using the tool but the tool has crashed before I could grab a screenshot... a perfect example of how it works haha Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

CloudApp is much better than my previous options for screenshots and recordings Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zight?

CloudApp was a bit hard to learn because the recent update changed a lot of things, so my colleagues weren't able to provide accurate demonstrations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Customer support problems are the main things we are solving. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Zight?

One of the very few apps that I enjoy using. Most products I make do with because they offer something useful to me. Cloudapp is a rare app that makes the work pleasurable with its speed, design and integrations. Well done, guys. I'm breaking out in hives now as I am not use to complimenting products. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zight?

More video annotation, editing would have been really useful. Its been a few years and really wish they had some basic video editing features. Nothing that complicates the UI, just simple ones. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Bug reporting, knowledge base, Documentation Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Zight?

I LOVE being able to quickly and easily narrate a video to send off as an instructional guide, troubleshooting tool or (maybe especially) as a clear and detailed demonstration of an issue that might be arising in our software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zight?

They removed the ability to search by title from the menu bar, but you can still do that online, so it's kinda a moot point. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Zight:

Just try it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
