What do you like best about Zight?

Cloud App is such an intuitive product. It is clear they use customer feedback when building out new features. I loved using it so much I brought it over to my current company from my last one. Cloud App automatically generates links for all images/recordings, the history is easy to scroll through, and (most importantly) it saves me so much time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zight?

While there is a lot of editing functionality already, I'd like to see that developed further. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I use this primarily to share images and screen recordings with customers and teams internally. This includes showing customers and partners how to do certain actions and capturing unexpected behavior for bugs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Zight?

UI is great easy to navigate, the functionality of gifs and annotations are what keeps me using Cloud app Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zight?

Very buggy, poor support. Whilst cloud app saves me time, I also find I have to do the same task 2/3 or even more times due to cloud app not working correctly.

Have issues 4/5 working days of the week. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's great but, it's going to test your patience Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Very easy to take quick screenshots, edit, and share them. Love that you can edit after sharing the link and it will update that link live. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes if you close it accidentally it will take away the quick access menu up top. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Sharing ideas, issues, or explaining things. Saves a lot of time rather than typing out or even finding the screenshot on the desktop, editing, and then attaching to email. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Zight?

I can take screenshots of GIFs on a mac and copy the content on my PC or phone another device. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zight?

Sometimes you get signed out too often and sometimes GIFs and videos don't encode and just leave you with black recordings for the length of your recording. Updating to the newest version fixes this. Anything under 15 seconds has a very high success rate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I work in support Daily and it helps me show users how to quickly solve their problems and can cut responses by ~1 response and shave MINUTES when it comes to working across multiple systems (USB or Slack yourself what recording you just took). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Zight?

It's free! I didn't subscribe to the paid version which undoubtedly has more features. However, even the free version has enough features to get me by. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zight?

It would be unfair to answer this when I didn't pay for the paid version. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I needed to support a Support Tkx to another software vendor. Being able to demonstrate my problem via screen and video capture is invaluable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy to use. Copy content of image to clipboard. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zight?

Sometimes I have to restart it because the process is taking up way too much CPU. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Zight:

I like to have it default to copying the image to my clipboard then you can use it any way you want. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Mainly sharing feedback with developers and designers. Sometimes I think the app is a bit slow. Some of your competitors are faster. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Zight?

I love that I can quickly take a screenshot or video to send to my clients, teammates, etc whether it's reporting an issue, explaining something, etc. I also love the annotate feature so I can add text or details on the screenshot to help people better understand what they need to be looking at. I also love that my desktop is no longer clutters with screenshots! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zight?

I don't like that whenever I have to go to full screen mode it doesn't capture what I need it to. It stays on the initial screen. I also wish there were some more video editing qualities Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Helping solve my customers tech problems by showing them where they need to go to fix something, find something, or evaluate how they have their platform set up. The visuals help people so much better than just typing a long email. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Zight?

The ability to send my clients a link to their unique screenshot or screen cast is a time and game changer. It saves so much time and money, plus the links are always there .... unlike those emails that seems to disappear magically after a week. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zight?

Sometimes the UX can be a little off-putting, from computer menu options to in-app UI. Getting much better though. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Zight:

Stop using the old antiquated ways and get on board with the future (AKA: The now). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Time and redundancy. The ability to have screenshots and screencasts stored in the could absolutely changes the game for our company and its clients. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ability to record videos, gifs and it's very easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Explaining to customers how to use a specific area of our platform in a visual way.

What do you like best about Zight?

This tool is a great option for making gifs on a budget. You can make and download gifs for free. It's easy to teach yourself to use, or you can watch quick gifs and videos in the help section of their website. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zight?

I wish that it were possible to trim gifs. I've seen this in other tools. Being able to trim would allow you to focus your gifs on just the action you need to capture. Every little bit helps when you are trying to minimize file size. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We use the tool to make gifs for emails and training documents. The gifs help capture attention and quickly explain simple actions (that might other wise take a lot of words to describe). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
