What users say
ShareX
"Free Windows capture suite; screen record has been reported to quit a few seconds in."
Pros
The killer feature is the upload to Imgur, and I just have all my screenshots stored somewhere A really good editor featuring many functions like editing, uploading, QR-code generating ShareX is not a simple screenshot utility. It is a suite of power toys
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
