Loom vs Tella: Which Screen Recorder is Best in 2025?

When you’re trying to explain something clearly—whether it’s a quick tutorial, product demo, onboarding walkthrough, or a course video—recording your screen and camera is often the simplest solution.

But here’s the catch: not all screen recording tools are created equal.

Creators, educators, marketers, and SaaS teams often ask the same question: Loom vs Tella — which one is better for recording, editing, and sharing in 2025?

Let’s break it down.

Loom

Loom has been the go-to screen recorder for years. It’s popular among remote teams, especially for async communication and product walkthroughs.

What Loom offers:

• One-click recording of screen, camera, or both
• Easy sharing with link
• Reactions and comments
• Auto-transcriptions and closed captions
• A mobile app and Chrome extension
• Basic video trimming tools

Loom pros:

• Fast and simple to use
• Easy to share and embed videos
• Viewer insights for business accounts

Loom cons:

• Limited layout and branding control
• Trimming only (no multi-clip editing)
• Less ideal for polished, shareable content (like marketing or course videos)

Tella

Tella is a newer screen recorder that puts content design and editing at the core. It’s used by creators, marketers, educators, and early-stage teams who want their content to look polished without a video editor.

What Tella offers:

• Multi-clip recording (camera, screen, or both)
• Layout customization (split screen, presenter mode, etc.)
• Add background colors and beautiful transitions
• Re-record individual clips without redoing the whole thing
• Built-in camera framing (bottom left, full screen, etc.)
• Export or share as link or embed

Tella pros:

• Built-in editor for polished, branded videos
• Ideal for product demos, course videos, and content marketing
• Easy to update or swap parts of a video (without starting over)

Tella cons:

• No mobile app yet
• No text, audio, and image overlay feature yet.

Tella vs Loom: Key Feature Comparison

Which Is Better for Recording Course Videos?

If you're recording async team updates, customer feedback, or internal tutorials, Loom is fast and reliable.

But if you're building a course, selling digital products, or promoting your SaaS product with video, Tella gives you:

• A clean, brandable layout
• The ability to re-record segments
• More visual control (great for educational content)

For example, if you're creating a course video on Notion, you can:

• Record your intro (clip 1)
• Screen share your Notion walkthrough (clip 2)
• Add a summary outro (clip 3)
• Re-record just the intro if needed (no need to redo the whole thing)

That flexibility is where Tella shines.

Loom Alternatives in 2025

If you're shopping around, here are a few Loom alternatives to consider:

• Tella: for more polished visuals and editing control
• Descript: for podcast-style video editing with text-based timeline
• Screen Studio: for Mac users wanting aesthetic UI + animations
• OBS Studio: powerful but complex (not beginner-friendly)
