@joshuapinter I've been beta testing it for a few months, its pretty cool how seamless it is. Excited to have it live!
Product looks good, I just signed up. I could see my whole company using this.
Couple Questions:
1. What are some use case examples for different orgs?
2. Something we would want to get one account or multiple accounts?
3. Is there in line commenting? I didn't see it as possible.
@johnrampton Awesome! Thanks for the comment John
1. CloudApp spreads across the entire organization video is at the core of the functionality with annotations just adding to its awesomeness. Here are a couple of thoughts on what we have seen from our customers.
Customer Support - closing tickets faster and increasing customer satisfaction rates with
videos
Product - faster to market with video collaboration vs. long meetings and emails
Sales - Increase engagement on outreach and connection with customers with video messages
Eng - better documentation and bug reports
2. 91% of the Fortune 1000 is using CloudApp. B2B companies will generally sign up for a Team or Enterprise account for the added control, security, and connection it provides
3. Stay tuned... we have been testing this in beta and it should be around really soon. You can check out our product roadmap on Trello https://trello.com/b/FLKc8AW3/cl...
Thanks for joining the community!
I've been a CloudApp fan for ages, and I'm excited to incorporate video annotations into my product demos!

I’ve been using this for a month now and have loved how it helps me be so much clearer in my videos, and how much time it saves me trying to answer a question, or show off a bug, or demo something.

Hey Product Hunters!
I am thrilled to put this live for our great community of users and for those who are new to CloudApp.
CloudApp has always been about speed and improving collaboration. In the newly remote world, drawing on your CloudApp videos will help add context and improve collaboration even more.
I have loved testing this out in beta over the last few months and I know you will love it too.
Join me and 4 million other Pro, Team, and Enterprise CloudAppers in giving video annotations a whirl.
Thanks,
Joe
I have used CloudApp for the past 3 years and I love it. I used it about 10x over this past weekend alone. Drawing on videos is going to make the product even more useful.
I have been using CloudApp for 3 years on a daily basis. User-friendly, reliable and incredibly effective with my colleagues and clients! Excited to add these new features to the list of excellent functionality!
