What do you like best about Zight?

CloudApp makes the ability to record your screen as easy as possible. It has a great user interface that is easy to understand. The ability to record in the cloud and immediately share files is invaluable. I love how it can live on my desktop and within seconds I can record a video to send to clients or customers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zight?

I have not found anything I dislike with this program. It has made the screen recording and capturing very easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Zight:

If you are looking for an easy to use screen recording and capture software this is my recommendation. Within 2/3 clicks from your desktop the recording has begun. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Recording videos for clients and customers to help them troubleshoot issues. Also recording in house videos for employees to guide them through work flows. The ability to record a quick video easily saves me hours trying to explain workflows to employees through numerous emails. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Zight?

CloudApp integrate perfectly in our daily workflows. For feature or support requests, just contact the CloudApp team and you receive a fast response. The integration into MacOS and Windows well done. I like that I'm able to have my own domain name for my file links. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zight?

I need to rethink, if I ever disliked anything.......... No, nothing to say. Really - there is nothing I miss in this application. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Zight:

CloudApp is a smart application and not overloaded with features you don't need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We are often in contact with customers, having issues to understand what we write in mails or how they should use an App. A Picture with annotations or a short Video says more than thousand words. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Its so easy yo use. I tried using Gyazo for GIF however they only offer 7 seconds for it and it's not ideal. Good thing my colleague suggested me to use this app and I find is so awesome and amazing. Kudos to the team! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Zight?

Especially in a digital work environment screenshots and screen casts are mission critical. Cloudapp makes it very easy to take screenshots and share them with colleagues. I also like the collections so i can save ones in groups that I need to remember. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zight?

I wish there was better search functionality. I have a photographic memory in the sense that i might remember a word or color or logo or phrase in the screenshot. It would be great to search the text within the screenshot Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Communication with colleagues. This saves time a dozen times a day when i want to show something a colleague instead of calling or texting them i can point exactly to the issue Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Zight?

CloudApp takes the thought process out of quickly sharing files, documents, images, video and more. I can generate anything and drop it into CloudApp for a quick link to share things efficiently and quickly - and know when people click it. Nice to not have to worry about storage constraints or server maintenance when sharing things. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zight?

Starting shortly after 5.8 and on into 6.x CloudApp has not been capturing GIFs and videos directly for me on all of my workstations. Some identical systems work fine while others do not. It's frustrating, but the core service is still of value. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

File / media sharing for work and collaboration with clients, friends, family, employees, contractors, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Zight?

It helps me to connect quickly with our customers by providing them step by step custom guides or tutorials. They love it when they hear me saying their names out loud, and explaining stuff directly in their accounts.

After discovering Cloudapp five years ago, I have started to use it out of my work tasks too - for instance, to explain tasks that I want to delegate in my side projects or even to explain how to do stuff to my family living abroad. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zight?

Recent updates include the option to record yourself that is automatically enabled by default, and I didn't find a way to disable that option yet (even if I contacted support about it)

From time to time, whenever you get an update, you might have some bugs in your account, but nothing that can be solved after exchanging a couple emails with their suppport team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

In my current position, helping our customers at ActiveCampaign, I have to explain how our features work or debug issues in automations or mail campaigns. Cloudapp is pretty handy when I have to show something that I might have explained in my email, so the final user understands exactly what are the next steps he has to take.

What do you like best about Zight?

Decluttering my desktop of screenshots! I used it for work long enough that now I installed it on my home laptop too. I love it for quickly sharing screenshots but also recording gifs and just about anything to do with screenrecording or images. I also use it for image storage fairly often which is probably not smart but I do it anyway! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zight?

For a while there there were a bunch of updates going on but now it seems to have evened out. No real dislikes at the moment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Zight:

There are a variety of options but I haven't seen any that meet the same needs as cloudapp. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Much easier to share screenshots with people on my team and internally. I also find it easier to find images in general since I just upload everything to cloudapp. I don't know about other folks, but once something goes on my laptop it tends to disappear so with cloudapp at least I know it's there.

What do you like best about Zight?

I love the ease of use. They offer options to take screenshots, record your screen (or a small section of it), gifs, as well as annotate screenshots or uploads as well. In my job, we do a lot of mock-ups and changes, my favorite feature is annotate. It's simple to understanding and allows for quick arrows, lines, color changes, boxes, blurs, etc. and it really does cut down my time doing medial tasks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zight?

I don't dislike anything about the tool! Anytime that I'm using a computer or desktop that doesn't have CloudApp, I find myself looking up to the top right wishing it was there. It is the best! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We update websites frequently with my job and I find myself using CloudApp multiple times a day to identify issues or changes on those sites. I feel like it really does help me carry out my job duties every day - and it does it quickly! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Zight?

Cloud app is easy to use - it sets in your toolbar, and you can click it, and within 15 seconds you can have your screenshot, gif, or video saved. I can click and drag the screenshots I make right into emails, tickets, or presentations - or, I can save the link and send that over.

It also saves previous screenshots for me, which is very useful. I like that I can tell when/who opens the screenshot.

I've been really liking the gif feature for presentations as well - it's very easy to highlight an area, record, and then just click and drop it into a presentation.

For video, I like that it's easy to screen grab, record (with or without cam/audio) and send it to someone. It's been helpful in explaining issues or solutions for clients.

For explaining things in just a screenshot, the annotate feature is excellent. I can add arrows/boxes/circles, change coloring and even add text. It's made my work life a lot easier and more efficient!

I've recommended it to co-workers and clients alike. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zight?

I can't say much about why I dislike it! The only issues I've had is when it crashed, which is rare. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

It makes it super easy to highlight issues that are occurring either with just an image, gif, or video, and I can then annotate and send to clients, or send to our IT team to clarify issues in tickets. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
