Atlassian acquired Loom... There were already plenty of issues (unreliable file management, constantly increasing prices, app disconnections), and especially considering the price, I can no longer recommend Loom as I did a few years ago. The shift to AI was an opportunity to add even more fees. I believe we can find better alternatives than this product, which is now a shadow of its former self.

Does the desktop app perform better than the extension?

I have never noticed any difference on my computer.

How does Loom handle large or long recordings?

It's easy with loom.

Can you organize videos with folders and search effectively?

File management is terrible. You absolutely have to click “Read more” or “See more” just to be able to see all these files. In other words, it’s not practical at all.

Loom was a game-changer for us when working with multiple agencies spread across different timezones during our projects. Instead of scheduling endless calls or juggling calendars, we recorded clear, concise video updates and walkthroughs that agencies could watch on their own time. This asynchronous communication saved everyone hours and kept feedback loops moving smoothly. Using Loom allowed us to explain design decisions, demonstrate workflows, and highlight key points visually—something that’s often lost in emails or chat messages. If you’re managing cross-timezone teams or external partners, Loom is an essential tool to keep communication transparent and efficient without the headache of constant live meetings. (I also love that you get notified when someone watches your video so you have full transparency into how things are moving)

Enjoyable to use, allowing you to record and share videos quickly. Some negatives for Loom to improve (as of 4 Nov 2024): - Not 4k by default - No ability to download the separate parts of a recording. E.g., the main webcam video, the screen video. This makes Loom less flexible for people recording videos to edit. - Automatically sets my video quality to a lower resolution (despite a 4k screen) - Online editing can be slow and cumbersome
