Screencastify is a strong match for Loom's core features. It explicitly offers screen recording, camera recording, and instant sharing of videos. The platform also includes basic video editing capabilities and viewer analytics. While not explicitly called 'Team Library', the 'School- and district-wide sharing' and 'video collections' features suggest a similar functionality for organizing and sharing videos within a team or organization. The website also mentions integrations with Google Drive, Google Classroom, Schoology, and Canvas, which implies broader integration capabilities, including potentially Slack and Gmail, though not explicitly stated for those two. Furthermore, it highlights security and compliance (COPPA, FERPA, SOC 2 Type II compliant) and auto-generated captions (transcripts).
I've been using Alternative A for 6 months now and it's been fantastic. The pricing is much better and the features are actually more robust than what [Product] offers.
It handles edge cases much better and the API
is actually documented properly.

Honestly, after trying both, Competitor B wins hands down. Better customer support, cleaner interface, and they don't nickel and dime you for every feature.
