What do you like best about Zight?

I love how easy is it to take screenshots with CloudApp. I just click on the icon at the top of my screen, and select the area that I want to save. It is completely seamless. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zight?

The sound that the app makes when it takes a screenshot is actually really annoying. To make make matters worse, it also makes the same annoying sound when you copy the image to your clipboard. The other thing I don't like about the app is that is does not automatically copy the image to your clipboard; rather, it instead automatically copies a link to the image from CloudApp's server. I then I have to click a separate button to copy the image to my clipboard. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Zight:

Definitely get this app. It saves me so much time everyday, and it is extremely convenient. There are certain parts of my job that I can't imagine doing without using this app, it is really a lifesaver. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

The only problem is the sound the app makes. Also the fact that anyone can just look up my screenshots by brute force searching potential URLs is someone worrisome. It would be nice if there were a profile setting to determine whether the images saved can only be viewed by me, or whether they can be viewed by anyone with a link. I am also really confused about why I was directed to g2.com when I thought I was taking a survey for CloudApp. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Zight?

I admire how easy it is to give screenshots as a gif. I get the source code and immediately add it to our help article without any significant personalization, which comes from a person who does not understand how to plan. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zight?

The last time I checked, the Windows version was not as ready as the Mac version. It isn't easy to take business equipment for the Internet library many times in one day. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Zight:

Give him a shot, and you'll be amazed at how incredible it is. Additionally, with tracks, you have the chance to really show what you want to suggest or even describe. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Cloud app can help you focus on presentations and saves time when you go back and forth via email (make a short video and talk about it). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Zight?

When I first started working at my company I noticed everyone was using CloudApp and I was still relying on CMD + SHIFT + 4 for screenshots. I was slow to make the transition but picked it up quickly because of how EASY it is to do. I can send a screenshot link, create a gif, trim down a video recording almost entirely with keyboard strokes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zight?

Sometimes it's slow or a video recording will take too long to process Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I work with customers and constantly need to send screenshot/video examples items I am troubleshooting or the locations of things in our app I am referring to. CloudApp allows me to do that very easily from all the platforms I communicate within - gmail, Intercom, Zendesk, etc Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Zight?

Because of CloudApp I conserve a great deal of time since it's really convenient to upload, delete and also share documents. Rather than attempting to create and email most suggestions and comments, I basically have to have a perspective which can make our ideas more clear and stay away from misunderstandings. The favorite feature of mine is an application on the computer of mine which immediately downloads screens and pictures so I am able to deal with all the files of mine from there without needing to visit an additional site! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zight?

Cloudapp is very easy to use and I have not encountered any problem Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Zight:

CloudApp is a tool that I recommend to anyone working in the IT industry. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I began making use of it for live chat, however I put it to use primarily for creating questions, since my role has changed to reply to much more internal compared to external questions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Zight?

With CloudApp, users could efficiently and quickly produce screenshots, presents as well as movies, moreover instantly proof and improve these media with little work.

With a single or perhaps 2 clicks, you will get a shared link prepared to send out. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zight?

I don't have any problems with cloudapp the answers to my questions I found in the documentation Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

CloudApp permits me and also the colleagues of mine to show various facets of the application with images, video and animation. End users of the software program love the potential to get customized pictures or maybe videos via an easy link. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Zight?

Cloudapp integrates seamlessly with your OS experience, augmenting the screen capture capabilities and giving you a handy online archive of what you've sent out. It doesn't feel like I'm using a whole new tool to do these things, it just works, and integrates with Photoshop and other apps to make capturing designs as simple as a keystroke. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zight?

The search function in the online archive view used to be only semi-functional, but they've made significant updates and now I don't know if I have any issues worth noting! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

CloudApp streamlines the process of sending files / designs out to a group of stakeholders. Everyone is viewing the same link, no one is trying to track down files, and there's annotation options should the need arise. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Zight?

CloudApp is fantastic for taking quick (or long) videos of me walking through websites or complicated issues that otherwise would be very difficult to explain over the phone or email. I also love being able to markup screenshots that let me clearly explain something better than words alone. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zight?

I really don't have any dislikes about CloudApp - it's worth every penny for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

The problems I solve with CloudApp are communication and explanation. My clients absolutely LOVE the videos I send them with explanations of how to use their websites. They often tell me that they keep a list of all the videos I send them so they can refer back to them at later times. Its been invaluable to my work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Zight?

I really like how quickly the screenshot captures and is sharable. I also enjoy that there is a GIF capture. I like downloading the GIF after I capture and using it when making walkthroughs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zight?

I’m having an issue right now where I need to have CloudApp open in the dock in order to screenshot, maybe I’m doing something wrong. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I use it often to take a bunch of screenshots and paste into Jira tickets, so that way I don’t make the Jira tickets so difficult to load.

In addition, I use it to screenshot stuff when sharing with clients and integration partners, and when they open I get the notif and know they saw my message and can call them out haha Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Zight?

I love how easy it is to create a screen shot or short video. It's been extremely helpful in working with our website developers to highlight bugs that need fixing. I am intrigued by the annotation feature but haven't used it yet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zight?

the "drag me" feature sometimes feels a little finicky, and I use it a lot. A simple "copy" and "paste" might work better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Zight:

Worth trying, especially if you are trouble shooting websites. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

As I said above, it's been great for working with our developer to describe issues we are having with the website. I also use it to trouble shoot Zoom issues with the people I'm training. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Zight?

I saw a video presentation using CloudApp and loved the look/feel. I downloaded it myself, and was creating short clips within 10 minutes to support my clients. Super easy to learn and use! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zight?

I don't like that once a video/screen shot is created, there isn't an opportunity to name it right away. Would be nice if as soon as it was recorded, a naming pop-up box appeared. This is not a big deal though, I can go into the library, watch a little of the clip to see what it is, and then name it myself. A little extra step I could do without. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Zight:

Shorten this review process! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Easy and effective virtual communication with clients that keeps the conversation moving forward offline. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
