What do you like best about Zight?

The wide range of options that are all extremely helpful and the easy of sharing a file/recording with the URL. Everyone in our team of 11 has a paid team account and we use it daily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Time savings is the #1 thing. As a CEO, I am busy. I can send requests or reply to emails so much faster now that I record a screen grab of what I need done instead of trying to type it out in detail. This leads to more efficient communications and less re-work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Zight?

The CloudApp is extremely user friendly and makes recording videos and audios a breeze! As a teacher who is preparing to provide content to my students virtually this upcoming school year, CloudApp really allows me to be extremely efficient and organized when it comes to creating a large quantity of online materials. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

So far, I've been extremely impressed with the ease and quality of CloudApp. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

With so much content needing to be created and/or digitalized for virtual learning, having a streamlined, easy-to-use application to help with this process is vital. Everything is stored in one location and easy to access. The video recording portion is very straightforward and there isn't a lot of setup required to create the videos.

when we go through a link to access cloudapp link the first time, it asks us to subscribe and only then gives an option to go to the next screen, not good when we can work on it for free. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This is an easy app to use. It took me just minutes to download and figure out how to use it. I thought there would be a learning curve but it was really simple. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing so far! I'm new to this app and it's really easy to screencast what I need to record. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Zight?

The ability to capture parts of the page as a video or animated gif while going through steps is very useful for explaining a process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zight?

The company is a little pushy, sending lots of email notifications (perhaps these can be turned off, but default is on and I haven't found the off yet). Windows snippet is more convenient for still screen shots just because it's easier to take a screen shot and copy paste it directly into email. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I was able to use this to create a trouble-shooting guide for a complex process in another web application that our users were having trouble with. Once the guide was illustrated with videos, our users understood what to do and didn't have further issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
