ilos

@blakeyeager First off, CloudApp is a cool tool and if others haven’t checked it out, I would recommend doing so. The main difference with ilos is that we’re spearheading Video Capture and Screen Recording. With CloudApp you can share audio, images, files, etc but their video recording is pretty clunky. So we are video recording and storage solution that works on any operating system (although not Linux just yet =), always works, and has depth of features.

Hi Everyone, My name is Nick and I am the CEO at ilos Videos. Btw me and the team were so excited to Hunted this morning! We started ilos out of a need we saw for a simple and streamlined Screen Recording experience and it's been really cool to see how much people are using it! If you have any questions or comments feel free to reach out to me via email. I'd love to hear from you! nickstokman@ilosvideos.com Thanks! Nick

@aboundlessworld Hi Bud, thanks for the question! So the big difference with ilos vs Screenflow is that ilos is screen recording + storage + hosting, all on the cloud inside a single app. I like to make the comparison of Microsoft Word Vs Google Drive. Screenflow is like Microsoft Word because you have to upload your video it to a third party app (like Youtube or Vimeo) to share or edit it so things start to get out of sync. ilos, on the other hand, allows you to easily share and/or edit your video in real-time like Google Drive. Hope that helps!

@vid_spandana great question. Nick came up with the idea for ilos while working in corporate. He just couldn’t believe there wasn’t a better way to communicate at work. There are so many situations where it’s easier to show someone something than to try and explain it. But unless you wanted to setup a web conference call, or schedule an in-person meeting, there really wasn’t a good way of doing that on the job. Communication should be simple. This is why we created ilos.

@nivo0o0 Actually you can make Gifs on ilos too =) Here's an ilos Gif to show you how:

@helencrozier Hi Helen, thanks for the comment! The exciting part is that we are just getting started =)

Thanks, @helencrozier! Glad you like it. Any other feedback you have as you use ilos is appreciated!

@skylifee7 Yeah we are definitely way too expensive if you're just planning to use ilos as a Gif maker =) But if you want unlimited screen recording, real-time video editing, hosting, and content management inside one app, I guess you are going to pay more. The idea with ilos isn't to provide another free app; it's to provide a premium service to the people that have the need for it. For instance, we have customer support teams that create 300+ videos per month. For them, having something like ilos that streamlines that process and keeps all their content in one spot is totally worth it.

@nick__stokman @skylifee7 I can see the pricing for someone who uses screen recordings a lot. But even the lowest model is too expensive for a guy like me who might do 1-2 screen recordings a month... so I'll be sticking to other tools (i currently have screenflow and jing).
