Loom and Skype both maintained perfect uptime during the week of April 20, 2026, according to Uptrue's independent monitoring. However, response time performance differed significantly, with Loom delivering 98ms average responses compared to Skype's 405ms.
- Both providers achieved 100% uptime with zero incidents during the monitoring period
- Loom's average response time was 98ms versus Skype's 405ms—a 4x difference
- Neither service experienced downtime events requiring incident management
- Data collected by Uptrue's independent monitoring infrastructure
Uptime This Week
Both Loom and Skype maintained perfect 100% uptime throughout the week, with zero recorded incidents or downtime. This represents equivalent reliability at the headline level for enterprise collaboration needs during the monitoring period.
Response Time
Loom responded to requests in an average of 98ms, while Skype averaged 405ms—a meaningful 307ms gap. For real-time collaboration scenarios, Loom's faster response time provides a noticeably snappier user experience, though both fall within acceptable ranges for asynchronous communication tools.
Incidents & Downtime
Neither Loom nor Skype recorded any incidents during the week of April 20, 2026. Both services maintained consistent availability with zero total downtime minutes, eliminating reliability as a differentiator during this monitoring window.
Which Should You Choose?
Both providers are operationally equivalent on uptime. Choose based on response time sensitivity: Loom for latency-critical workflows requiring sub-100ms interaction, or Skype if response time is less critical and integration with Microsoft's ecosystem is prioritized.
