Codebox vs Kobra.io: What are the differences?

Developers describe Codebox as "Cloud IDE as a Service". FriendCode was created in 2013 with the vision of creating powerful development tools, tackling issues like collaboration, cloud development and many others. We are building Codebox, an open source Cloud IDE, than can run not only on the cloud, but on your desktop or your server as well. Codebox.io lets you host and manage Codebox instances online as a service using a dashboard or an API. On the other hand, Kobra.io is detailed as "Collaborative "Google Docs" for code". Kobra is the easiest way to collaborate on code quickly with your coworkers, friends or students. With built in video & voice chat, the themes and keyboard shortcuts you're used to and syntax highlighting, you'll feel right at home.
