Pros

It's super simple to record and share with everyone.
It has to be their chrome plugin. It makes creating video messages really easy, especially when you need to record a screen and getting into the app or platform can just take too long.
Loom is fast, easy to use, and very functional. I can start recording within 2-3 clicks that's awesome, and better than sending a thousand-word message explaining things.
Loom is a sophisticated screen recording app that is yet so simple to use. And the best part is that it is completely free for educators.
Loom allows you to record video, audio, or both. It also allows you to record your screen. Both the web app and desktop app are easy to navigate and use.
It's very light on the operating system and easy to use for anyone.

Cons

By default, it is set to switch on at start-up which is annoying. Also, once you close a video you are recording the app shuts down. It should have a master screen and then the video UI for a more optimized experience.
The pricing should be better, probably what they can do is price it higher, and get more free features and minutes for the free ones.
It limits the video to 5 minutes, I thought it should have been at least 10 minutes (for free).
I wish that the desktop app had a better interface or more options. If you do anything besides just record, it kicks you to the website.
Keyboard shortcuts to stop or pause the video are too much of a monkey grip.
The video quality becomes blurry when I record on my large 4k screen but it's fine when recording on my Macbook's screen.
The control area with the profile picture (if my webcam isn't on) is a bit too big, which covers quite a bit of the screen recording area.
