What do you like best about Zight?

The features of CloudApp are great when they actually work. Screenshots, drag & drop for those screenshots, adding arrows and boxes, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zight?

This app is VERY buggy and unreliable. Each update makes it less and less stable. When you shoot a video with Loom it's up in 2 seconds, but with CloudApp it can take 3-5 minutes to process and start to upload. The desktop app crashes frequently on both Windows and Mac. We have multiple employees using it and all are reporting the same issues. We share videos with clients that sometimes don't actually open properly for them or for us. It's like this company is so focused on adding more and more features rather than trying to ensure what they already have works properly and is reliable. Could not be happier since dumping this and going to Loom. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Zight:

Download the videos you want to keep because finding them in CloudApp later can be a pain when you have hundreds of videos. It's also not the most reliable system as sometimes your video will work, you send it to a client, and when they try to open it a day later it doesn't load and you'll find you can't load the link either. Don't expect much in terms of support. Normally you'll only be contacted by sales reps who want to push you into higher-level subscriptions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We needed videos for guides, sharing things with clients to avoid unnecessary meetings, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Zight?

The best part about CloudApp is the wealth of features! Extremely detailed marked-up screenshots and screen recordings are quite easy with CloudApp, and I was happy with some of the more niche options that were offered. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The user experience was, unfortunately, rather clunky. Onboarding members of our team was a bit rough, as the menu layout was somewhat unintuitive and the 1UX was not detailed enough. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

CloudApp solved an important problem in our IT industry by facilitating rich communication from our tech support team to our clients, and by facilitating visual aids for those who learn best by visual means. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
