What users say
Greenshot
"Free easy Windows stills tool; not a recording suite and years behind ShareX as a power tool."
Pros
Free and very easy to use screenshot app I switched to GreenShot, which is free and open source
Loom
"Cloud async video with a 1.3 average; cancel and record-fail comments dominate."
Pros
The desktop app makes it easy to capture videos to send to colleagues. Videos are easy to share
