ReviewStudio is my go-to for getting our internal clients to review documents, flyers, brochures, video, etc. It is great!

It is easy and quick to upload a file and get a link for reviewing. All of the client’s comments are in one place, no matter how many people review the file. That means just ONE VERSION of a file with all the comments in one place. No more reconciling comments from different sources!

It can take a little time for new users to understand how to leave comments. We now send them instructions. It would be nice if there was a little tutorial at the beginning.

Very simple and easy to use. Clients can set up guest accounts with just their name and email address which was imperative for us.

Exporting feedback is not great - it's a difficult to use Excel spreadsheet. Other platforms provide the marked up image with all of the comments in a PDF format. Moving files around in a review is clunky.

It's been very helpful for me and keeps my presentations organized and on the web. The only hassle is the item I described in the "cons section of this review.

I like that anyone can comment and review that it's updated in real time on the web for everyone else to see. I like that it's visual and easy to use.

I think the worst part is that my clients don't know anything about this software so they are hesitant to use it to leave reviews. They are not used to it so they use a different method that they are used to. If there were better explanations on how to use it like videos like on freshbooks software it would help people get started leaving a review of my work.

This tool is absolutely indispensable for my work as a freelance 3D designer. They continue to innovate and improve the platform and it gets better every year.

Easy to use and share with new clients to get rapid, asynchronous feedback on my work.

There's a tiny learning curve for users that haven't used a tool like this before, and it'd be nice to have a feature to automatically notify logged in clients when I complete tasks or upload revisions.

Overall it has been beneficial to our rganization

Consolidation of reviews instead of email chains that can become lost or splintered, and can bloat your account with attachments. Plus getting an official signoff and proof of review input.

The fact that it lacks a way to get feedback on a live website is the biggest dislike for us. Uploading HTML code is not a viable option as we develop on WordPress most of the time. We have had to pick up a Userback account to fill that gap.

For a company the small size of ours, ReviewStudio works great. It's simple, effective and a good value for what it offers. We use it everyday and saves us a lot of time and moneycompared to the old way of routing physical prints of each file.

Review Studio is easy to use in both submitting files for review and for others to markup issues with the files. Workflows are easy to setup for various employees to review only certain file based on their particular roles and responsibilities.

Files preview at a small size on screen and need to be zoomed in to read type and analyze graphics. This has to be done incependently for each page unfrtunately and slows the process down. The ability to turn off the color channels of a PDF file independantly would be a big plus for those in the print industry.

It gives me a way to get feedback and redmarks on 3D renderings and video from my clients or other designers working on the project all in one place. It is simple and very effective.

The best part is how I can get feedback and markups from as many people as I want on the same project and everyone can see each others comments on graphic design, 3D, or videos, and it's very intuitive and time saving.

The only thing I don't like is it used to be open to anyone to have permission to participate by default but in the last update it's more locked down and I have to change the permission but I'm guessing that is due to companies being more security minded than what I have to deal with.

Overall it's very good and clients like it a lot too!

Clients like it a lot. Saves them time and all can see each others remarks. For us it's much easier and better too. Reduces the communication errors

That I have to pay for it :) and sometimes when there are issues. But they respond fast

My team and our projects couldn't do without it!

The ability for my team to collaborate for reviewing image and video content whilst working from different locations.

Does not seem to have an 'undo' feature.

Makes proofing fast and easy for internal and external teams

none, this service is everything I need, and I am happy with the product

It's been great! The support, product and ease of use have saved us time, money and stress.

With a design team that's 100% work-from-home, we needed a tool to ensure our design process wasn't lost in the variables of email or phone calls. Review Studio was exactly that. It's saved us time, money and the frustrations of miscommunications at an incredibly reasonable price. The markup tools are simple and easy to use, something that was vital when I am constantly bringing in outside departments; the version history makes comparison a breeze and the admin panel allows for the right people to have the perfect amount of control so that nothing is accidentally deleted, approved, or mismanaged. If you need a good proofing software, this is it.

The only negative we've found is when a review expires on the timeline, it is locked. Sometimes fires happen and it means we have to reactive it, however overall it is not a major detriment and we still love the product.

Highly recommend and the staff there is great. I beta tested multiple versions and every time I ask for a new feature they are quick to reply and update, this is something you don't see very much these days.

My company has been using this product for many years. The ability to review still renderings, photographs, videos and 360 images is a very integral part of our workflow and our clients find it very easy to use. Multiple versions, the compare tool, markup tools and ability to attach files to comments is really great.

I think the only con is that the mobile version of it isn't nearly as easy as on desktop / laptop. Clients will often leave blank comments or strange lines on the review before realizing they should do it on the computer.

ReviewStudio makes it really easy for our clients to leave their feedback in one place and directly related to specific areas of our design work. Without it, we received feedback via email, in Word docs, and generally all over the place.

Some of our clients have a higher barrier to entry and feel hesitant to try a new tool, or find the features confusing at first.

We found Review Studio to be the easiest way to quickly discuss visual information over the distance. Talking to remote clients or coworkers on a phone and being able to control and markup the presentation from both (or multiple) sides in one session won several projects for us. :-) Very solid tool!

ReviewStudio is a sophisticated tool, but intuitive and easy to use by anybody on all platforms and screens. Sometimes we use it as an emergency solution when other methods of collaboration fail. To setup a review takes just a few seconds and you can share it via url link.

I miss ability to place a text and not to be able to move comment markers in different position (sometime they obscure the view).

After several months of exploring other workflows and trying other proofing solutions, we decided on Review Studio. This week, we are ready to make the leap after the proofing system we were using had an "upgrade". So we moved our timeline up by a month and we aren't looking back!

Excellent customer support, good client-facing functionality, streamlined proof uploading, amazing search/ file tagging system, both thumbnails AND text for file listing, and rapid notifications.

No client-facing dashboard. Clients have to rely on their email message filing to see which of their proofs are active/ inactive/ complete. We have clients/ sales reps who manage several dozen portfolios with us and this may start to prove cumbersome for them. We may have to find a workaround at some point, but for now, we are managing.

The team behind ReviewStudio takes all suggestions to improving the product seriously.

The ability to collaborate on the reviewing/proofing proces together with clients and other parties involved. Having all comments in one place speeds up this proces greatly. Clients also prefer to work with online solutions.

For us and out clients ReviewStudio works very nicely

Top notch, clients love it, I love it. It solves the approval process elegantly and flawlessly.

I really like the interface and that is supports a ton of formats and file types as well as the ease of use. Just what I was looking for.

I think the Client and Project details are pretty bare boned, but I track that elsewhere anyway, so while it doesn't impact me, it would be a nice update.

Very intutive for both admin and users alike. Great tools and functionality for clear communication.

Can't think of any. The software is very robust and the Review Studio team has fantastic support.

It does a good job of consolidating input from a group. Pretty easy to use. We do have to hold hands with a few of our users.

Our designers sometimes miss details in setting up the proof: there may be no option to "approve". I'd like it to be easier to see this.

It makes the approval / reviewing process alot faster

At the moment there is not any cons that I have over Review Studio

We love using ReviewStudio and recommend it across the board.

My team and I consistently say "I wonder if ReviewStudio can ___" and they answer is almost always "YES!". It's the perfect tool for our program management and fielding approvals from multiple different internal and external parties.

When account support was needed it was slightly difficult to get ahold of someone, but once we did the service and support was great.

Great tool to for us to have at our fingertips whenever we have to get or give feedback on just about anything we are creating. And it's so inexpensive.

Makes producing our health & wellness videos so much more efficient. The ability for video editors to easily share their rough cuts for feedback. Feedback is all there - no email threads. We also make good use of markup on all kinds of file types.

Can't think of anything that hasn't been quickly addressed by their support team.

It was a lifesaver. The customer service was excellent. I'm not sure if this will apply to subscribers (I was on a trial plan) but if you are building a lot of websites and would rather not deal with comps in photoshop, strings of emails, or other long processes.. THIS is a great solution.

The ability to upload and HTML version of a staging website with ease, invite a client to review it, and make it easy for them to annotate ANY change.. colors, images, copy, layout.. without going back and forth with endless emails or even messaging via some of the fancy project management software out there that only seems to confuse clients and make it easy to lose track of an important message or request. I have been looking for software that makes it easy for me, the developer/designer.. AND my clients who are often not tech-savvy.

There was one glitch with the annotation (pin comment at a specific location) feature. It looks like it was fixed.

Very useful and fast. it is cool messenger.

Technical service was bad. Responses should be faster.

The effectiveness it allows me to communicate with internal staff and clients

It is difficult to use for a first time user
