Pros:

Easy to use, Works multiple devices, inlcuding ChromeOS Clean UI HD recording Call to action button at the end

Cons:

NONE

I use it to send videos to Support when they can see a video of your problem; it makes it much easier for them to fix the problem. It is good for a variety of things very good tool and less expensive than SoapBox!

Pros:

Quick and easy to use!

Cons:

Not any yet!

I started using Loom and got offered to use the Pro version. It's been great for creating everything from all out webinars to quickie videos to show my designers how to make a change or a project. Overall a really solid piece of software that has been added to my stack.

Pros:

Really fast and easy to use. Lightweight resource for people who make a lot of videos and need to share them quickly.

Cons:

A few competitors offer better features.

@_shahedk I've played with Loom a bit and absolutely love the product. How do you think about your thesis relative to other video-first products like vidyard or vimeo?

Hey @jeremykovac! Great question. I would bucket Loom as a "video-first product" as well. The distinction I would draw between what companies like Vidyard, Wistia, and Vimeo are working on is that they're video *distribution* platform where as Loom is a video *communication* platform. Video distribution platforms tend to focus on content that has a marketing orientation (evergreen, high quality, high volume views) where as Loom is hyper focused on day-to-day workplace communication across all departments.

Try this out if you haven't already.

Pros:

Easy to use URL video links and the ability to DL Free to use

Cons:

None, this is the best piece of software I have used in a while. I use it for internal and retailer training at the moment.

Loom removes all the barriers to using video in everyday conversation. It's always ready, and the instant link sharing is key. We use Loom in 90% of our internal business comms. It is a driving force for positive change in our business.

Pros:

Loom is a key factor in our success in growing from 1 to 14 Virtual Assistants in less than a year. We love Loom!

Cons:

screen capture, more comprehensive editing

Maybe an option to switch off the facecam for a short segment and then come back to it later - all within the same recordng? Perhaps it can do this already....I need to explore a bit more!

Pros:

Its such a no-fuss tool. Intuitive and so useful in a variety of ways.

Cons:

None that I can think of!

Josh Puckett

I use Loom basically every day while working with design apprentices, and can't imagine going back to the other tools I was using.

Pros:

- Video is instantly ready after recording - Marking up on screen is simple, intuitive - Can record with video on any app

Cons:

- Excited to see slightly more editing controls in the future

Melinda Samson
