StoryXpress Reviews

Super easy to start recording, and just as easy to share my videos where ever I want.
Watch notifications and analytics show me exactly where I lost people, or if my videos were ignored.

Branded video embed pages are a nice touch.

It's only happened a couple of times when the app crashes during a recording, or the output audio/video are out of sync.

I really needed a "Loom-like" software which allows me to create video recordings. The problem with Loom is that when I send links to my subscribers, they don't necessarily know what "loom.com" is & they sometimes down click the link to watch the video.
StoryXpress solves that issue by allowing us to add Cname for all shareable links.
This is by far my favorite feature & the reason I subscribed.

Nothing that I hated, but the Video uploading/rendering speed could (and should) be faster (my internet is pretty fast & reliable - based out of USA).
The upload speed of StoryXpress compared to Loom is probably 2 times slower.
It could get annoying when you record a video & just want to quickly shoot it out to your subscriber to watch right away.

easy to use, simple, fast instalation, cheap

cannot upload offline recording ? first you must reconsider, this app is will make you headache. why? when you record, sometime the audio quality broken, miss sync audio video, which i couldnt retake the video.

i dont know what occur this thing, the problem is solved when i do offline recording and manual upload
but youknow? manual upload i must upgrade first to make customization? it ridiculous for me

I have tried many screen/video recording software and StoryExpress has been the easiest to implement for the team. If you are looking to get your team on board and implementing fast this is the way to go. It is very intuitive and robust to meet all of your needs.

I haven't found a Con - I literally choose this software after using many others.

Very easy to use, better limits than alternatives, so it's more economical.
Use it nearly every day - clients love having things explained in a video walkthrough rather than getting lost in translation via an email.
The team use it to explain problems and can get a better answer.

Only one thing I don't like (and I haven't searched for a fix or asked support, so it might just be me) but it does't save my login so I have to re-login every day.

I like the speed, the features and the very quick customer service

It could be less expensive, and it could be quicker in the upload of the analytics.

StoryXpress helps us document processes, create custom marketing & sales videos and streamline our operations. It's been an incredible addition to our tech stack.

The only limitation I can think of is the limited number of embeds, but apart from that there's nothing not to like.

I love the way it automatically embeds my videos on a branded page, so I can easily share a URL of a webpage and my clients can easily watch my video there.

If my connection is crappy the upload bombs out and I have to re-record the video.

I purchased a Lifetime deal off AppSumo for $60 [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] and can't recommend it enough. It's got the majority of the same features as Loom and they are developing a bunch of new features. The few functions that ClapBoard doesn't have are in development and will be extended to all AppSumo users.

I've experienced some minor (non-critical) glitches. But it's been fantastic otherwise. Really looking forward to the video editing functionality which I think is a big piece that's missing from ClapBoard... but it's on its way.

Analytics on the videos! I can see how many times my videos have been watched.
I can see where viewers drop off, so I can keep improving he videos.

By monitoring which of my videos get the most views, I know what type of content my suppliers, clients and employees find most useful.

I've lost videos that never uploaded to my dashboard about 4 times.
All 4 times the internet was being dodgey though!

Fairly easy to use! I like how you could have a custom intro before the screenshare, that's a nice feature Loom does not have.

It had some glitches that resulted in videos turning out poorly, however support was prompt to look into it. It also didn't play well for my clients on their mobile devices, so that was challenging.

Setting up StoryXpress (Clapboard) was really simple - I just followed the instructions to download the Chrome extension and it took less than 10 minutes to get started on my first video. The software is really intuitive - you can either record your face, record the screen, record your face and screen at the same time, or make the video out of a mixture of those options.

The videos are available almost immediately in the dashboard, and it's super easy to either download them or send the link to clients to view. You can also add CTAs and other features fairly easily, but I haven't had any need to use those features so far.

It would be great to be able to blur out details in the video. Perhaps this is already a feature, but I haven't been able to find it

Easy to record screen, zoom meetings, etc.

Very hard to find videos if you record a lot and don't host them or save them externally.
There aren't folders, they removed tags (this did exist).
So you either have to put them into playlists or download and upload to another source.

Very easy to record and store. The best part is I can allow three team members to use the software in their desktop. So it is worth it. Every penny is worth it.

Customer support is excellent. They respond immediately which is most important. They give me proper timeline if the glitch needs time to be fulfilled.

One negative aspect is I can't edit the video in the platform itself. But it seems the team is working on this feature . Editing is very much essential.

It is a great alternative to Loom, I like that you can make it look like a landing page and customize the looks etc. Also great you can download, and embedded, very great features.

Sometimes the videos don't seem to record properly and you have to re record again. This happens maybe 1/20 times, so not so often, but when it does, not the most ideal. But shouldn't be a too big of an issue in most cases.

1. Handy, Can even use in chrome book and can record videos where ever i want.
2. Compatibility with Snap camera software, I can add background effects to my recordings like Zoom.
3. Video Player and landing page customization as per branding.
4. 24*7 live Customer support

For my use case, I haven't experienced any cons for this recorder, But currently, the extension is not to record videos which are 5-6+ hours long. As per their customer support, they are working on a desktop app which will sort this issue.

Really easy to use and with some extra features that Loom doesn't have.

No desktop app, so you can't do videos of non website apps/tools.

Easy to use
Customisable to some extent
Great Value For Money

Overall it is really good. There a few settings I've not master yet but I guess, that is for me to sort out.

This software saves me so much time! Rather than back and forth mails, skype meetings, and frustrating hours spent trying to convey meaning, this tool helps me get across my point effortlessly.

I have yet to find a problem, but it's a little vague how many videos I can record and/or store.

Being able to explain how to do things for clients and staff gets immensely easier using this product. Quick setup and have a recorded how to video to share. Super easy to use and share.

Also use it to send personalized video chats to clients, so that they can see and hear me in my message.

All good, have not really come across any negatives.

inbrowser startup, nice UX, analytics, customization

Functionality issues with VPNs, stability uploading video, some other lack of features

It works and is simple to use. I liked how it has a feature to feature my camera at the beginning to capture the viewer's attention.

It's not practical to minimize the camera bubble.

This program is easy to use. It is a affordable quick way to start doing your online video content now.

Lately when I try to clip a video it completely deletes it

I really like how easy it is to download the app and start using. The functionality is great and it's been easy to navigate. I like that the videos don't have to be loaded to YouTube or another place, but can be pulled up by anyone with the URL right on your site.

Can't really think of anything. There are probably things like branding that might be available but I haven't learned all yet.

This product is amazingly easy to use. Right from the outset I was able to get fantastic results exactly as I needed, without any hassle.

So far, I've found now real downside to using StoryXpress.
