What do you like best about Zight?

CloudApp is great for taking and documenting screenshots, easy links to share with my peers and creating, and recording quick simple videos that I can always revert back to (either for myself or others). The Chome extension is also super easy to leverage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zight?

So far, nothing! The product has been super convenient to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Sending screenshares that are not images (better in links) -- benefit being that I can easily share images and content without cumbersome attachments. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Zight?

I've been using CloudApp for almost 10 years now and the primary reason I use it is because it allows me to grab screenshots and share quickly. Over the years, gif support is nice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zight?

I don't like how it's adding more and more features. As long as the core screenshot feature doesn't change I guess I'll be okay. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Zight:

They've been doing it the longest I think and are the best screen shot sharing app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Quicker than uploading to Slack and it's just easier to directly upload to a link that you can share. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Zight?

Cross platform, fast, easy to annotate, clean UI Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zight?

Unexplained crashes (this has decreased) Recordings messing with the microphone even when the mic button is OFF, the video player should be a bit larger by default so the user does not need to fullscreen. Jing's video player size was ideal in this regard. The ability to switch an already made video from GIF to Recording (and vice versa) seamlessly has been a favorite feature of the free app record.it and would like to see it here.

What do you like best about Zight?

CloudApp makes it easy for me to take screenshots, create videos, and GIFs for any of my decks. I have to create a lot of content in my current role, and CloudApp makes that 10x easier for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zight?

Can't really think of anything major at the moment. There are hiccups and issues here and there, as there are with any tool, but their support team was responsive and very helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I'm saving a lot of time for one. Sales decks are a pain to put together, and again, I have to create a lot of content for them myself. Using CloudApp for GIFs and videos makes my life a lot easier, and the content ads value to my customers. It has become a must-have tool for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love that I'm able to take screenshots, and then highlight highlight things on that screenshot. It's really helpful for my job in software customer service. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zight?

My only dislike would be that I often run in to issues while trying to do updates to the software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I work in customer service for a fairly complex software. It's really helpful to be able to take a screenshot of the software and then highlight certain parts of it while i'm troubleshooting with a customer. It's also a great tool for communicating with colleagues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Zight?

i like the ability to take screenshots with annotations and send quick video tutorials when needed Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zight?

the app can sometimes lag with screenshots (and end up taking the wrong snapshot bcus it's too slow to load). the app itself also crashes quite frequently and doesn't retain screenshots from previous days which isn't helpful if i need to reference something from a few days prior Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Zight:

the new "updates" are almost always extra buggy - worse than the previous Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Zight?

Easy of use. Can quickly copy/paste links and every screenshot/recording is saved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zight?

"Record" is now the first button instead of "capture." I personally use the screenshot tool much more often than the recording tool. Cloudapp also used to allow you to search by keyword through past screenshots which was a huge value add. Unfortunately they removed this functionality. Also, the sign-in gets wonky at times on desktop and often on mobile. Mobile's login UX needs to be improved esp. if logging in with Google. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Improves communication across remote teams Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
