It's the 21st century and visual communication is the future. Tools that give users access to webcam recording, screenshot, and image annotation features allow teams to boost productivity in substantial ways, reduce miscommunications, and improve customer experience. But which visual communication platform is right for you? Keep reading to learn the differences between CloudApp and Loom and why one of them is the clear favorite.
CloudApp is a visual communication tool that combines screen and webcam recording, GIF creation, and image annotation features into one, easy to use solution. Companies that use our tool report higher levels of productivity and happier customers. Why? Because CloudApp's feature set allows for quicker and clearer communication. Our users don't send long-winded emails that take a long time to read and even longer to write. They simply record themselves speaking their minds or their screens to demonstrate specific workflows. When additional clarity is needed, annotations such as arrows and text boxes can be added to both images and videos so that miscommunication is kept to a minimum. Whether you're conversing with colleagues or responding to customer complaints, the convenience of CloudApp will enable you to get tasks done faster and better every time.
Loom is video recording, simplified. Similar to CloudApp, Loom allows its users to record their screens and/or themselves via their computer's webcam and send the resulting footage to colleagues, customers, moms and dads… whoever! This process is much more productive than typing out lengthy emails and hoping your recipients understand what you're trying to say. With Loom, communication is fast and easy — just as it should be.
So what makes CloudApp a suitable Loom screenshot alternative? Why do we recommend using our tool over Loom's? Because you get more functionality for less money, that's why! The free version of CloudApp will give you access to all of its great features including screen recording, GIF creation, and image annotation. Loom, on the other hand, doesn't let its users take screenshots or annotate content. We're not saying that Loom is a bad tool. We just think you should get the most "bang for your buck." And that means choosing CloudApp is the right move for you and your organization.
CloudApp is a powerful visual communication tool. But unlike many other flashy solutions with a slew of bells and whistles, CloudApp is really easy to use. Here's how:
That's it! You now know how to create a wide variety of different content pieces using CloudApp. As you can see, our solution is much more than just a Loom screen recorder alternative. It's a complete visual communication tool with an impressive slate of useful features.
CloudApp does a lot, but it doesn't do everything. That's why we've made sure to offer powerful and seamless integrations with many other popular tools. Does your team like to chat on Slack? CloudApp has an integration for that. Do you manage projects in Trello or Asana? CloudApp has integrations for those tools as well. Just about every solution, from Zendesk to Google Docs to Intercom can be easily integrated with CloudApp — either natively or via Zapier. This means that the screen recordings, GIFs, and annotated images you create using our app can be sent and/or attached to every other tool you use with a single drag and drop motion.
CloudApp is more than a Loom screen recorder alternative. It's a full-fledged visual communication solution that features screen and webcam recording, GIF creation, and annotation features — something Loom can't claim. But all this extra functionality won't cost you an arm and a leg to access. In fact, it won't cost you anything. Download CloudApp today and start using it for free.
