About Ruttl

Ruttl is a collaborative online tool for reviewing developed websites. It is intended for teams of designers and developers to gather visual feedback and make live changes to web projects. The software works by embedding one or more target web pages for design review. These pages can then be browsed as usual in preview mode. Team members can be added from within design, development units, and outside parties. Users can tag elements of reviewed web pages and add comments, suggestions, or questions in comment mode. Tasks can be assigned to individual team members and issues marked as resolved when appropriate. Ruttl also offers a responsive view feature for reviewing mobile versions of the site. The platform provides an inspect mode that allows users to make design cha...

Best App for Getting Feedback on Live Websites

I love the clean and modern design, which is a joy to use and boosts my image with my clients. I like that my clients have been able to use it with almost no instruction... but there has been some confusion from my clients on how to do a few things, for example, to find and work off the latest revision. Also, there was a time where I didn't get any notifications that my client made comments... but I believe that was rectified.

PROS

Has all the features needed to collaborate with clients on web design, including point and click to add comments on live website elements. Clients can collaborate as guests, but get more features if they login. As an agency, it can be white-labeled with a custom domain. As actual website revisions are made, ruttl can add revisions so that clients are commenting on the latest revision, not an outdated website.

CONS

It's new, so some of the features are still getting worked out. But ruttl has been fast to acknowledge and usually fix any issues. I believe it's getting mature.

Reason for choosing Ruttl

Way cheaper, better looks, more targeted at exactly what I need, which is website design review & collaboration.

Reasons for switching to Ruttl

Markup.io is still developing, slowly. ruttl has the live edit feature and a few more features than markup.io. And it feels like ruttl is developing quickly and has an active, fast-moving, serious team behind it.

Very Promissing But Not Great As of Now

I started to try it after I bought it 2 months ago. Guest now can comment via your sharable link without needing to sign up. It's a good thing. While they need to register their accounts on Ruttl when they want to save their editing. Sync is realtime, I can see comments from guests or collaborators. But it's also buggy as of now. I hope they can address it soon. One more thing, if they can add multiple translations and get rid of direct Google API, it would be great.

PROS

- Modern and Clean UI - Easy-to-use UX and guide tour - Live site editing feature

CONS

- Not working on Firefox, always loading. Then I have to use Chrome - Sometimes the inspect tool would choose wrong tag, then editing wouldn't work - Buggy: - It can't handle some special elements for example "Back to Top" button, the comment box will be covered by your OS status bar when you click it. - Replace Image often not working, sometime it will leave blank after you set a image. And it seems that SVG/WebP even PNG images are not well supported yet. - It seems that Ruttl relys on Google's API, so it's almost impossible to use in China.

Reason for choosing Ruttl

Promissing product with clean and modern UI. I am afraid of Markup.io may start to switch to monthly suscription. So I got Ruttl as a backup.

Reasons for switching to Ruttl

Picter is mostly a visual review tool that I purchased half a year ago. It has a pen tool which is great. But the development is slow and it's mainly for images and videos. So I decided to switch to other tools. Ruttl came to my eyes 2 months ago. It seems that it has a wonderful team and they don't reply on it so much to survive because it's a side project. This could be a good thing or a bad thing.

Feels not ready yet

PROS

I like the modern and simple design of Ruttl and the features that make it easier for me to actively work on a website (or design) with my clients. I send them an invitation and they can then add comments to the design in real time, and I can respond.

CONS

I would like to use Ruttl more often, but it doesn't feel good enough yet. A problem where one of my web pages cannot be displayed on Ruttl has been going on for over a month. I have been promised that they will take care of it and give me an update, but I can't put my customers off until then. So I have to (unfortunately) switch to other tools where it works. I really hope that Ruttl will bring more stability in the future, before new functions are released, because first of all the main product should work properly.

Time Saver!

As a Digital agency owner, time is my must valuable asset. Having clients commenting directly in a Design and not in a Work Document is time saving for everyone envolved. It takes off the weight and communicate directly with my creative team. So much easier to delegate.

PROS

- Scroll page on Hover - Review Both Images and Websites - Mobile and Desktop views work seamlessly - The fact that you can hide below menu and work with a clean view its a plus. - You can "add latest version" without losing the anterior version... Time saving. - Support answers you fast

CONS

It was slow at first but they upgraded now and it's working fine.

Reason for choosing Ruttl

It's a Saas and also have image reviewing, not only Website.

Reasons for switching to Ruttl

Too Buggy and new versions all the time...

Ruttl is probably the best solution out there!

Very good

PROS

How simple it is to use. My clients intuitively knew what to do without me having to onboard them to the product.

CONS

I think linking of live website pages could be easier? Instead of linking individually there could be an option to link all pages associated with a live website domain. It would be easier generally to remove the ones you don’t need rather than to add individual pages.

Reason for choosing Ruttl

Price and the fact that it’s a stand alone product instead of a plugin for a Wordpress site.
