A very capable and competitive way of creating content

I like Xtensio. For generating content quickly and without a lot of fuss, in specific topical areas, this is my go-to tool. The learning curve is fairly shallow, and as I learn new tricks it is easy to go back and make changes. I have found that over time, lots of things start to look the same - there is an Xtensio "look." This isn't a problem for mostly-internal documents, but I also use other tools to create a wider variety of content.

PROS

It is modular - if your content needs align with an existing template, it is quick and easy to create a customized high-quality and informative infographic. Wide range of customization options. Things work pretty much as you'd expect them to. Excellent customer support.

CONS

Although there are lots of options, the existing set of templates feels constrained - if they serve your specific needs then you are in luck. If not, you can create a template from scratch but without a lot of guidance.

Reason for choosing Xtensio

Good looking, shallower learning curve, a better fit for business process infographics.

Vendor Response

Thank you for the detailed review, Douglas. We appreciate your feedback and are happy to hear Xtensio has saved you time creating high-quality content!

Buggie Software and Terrible Customer Service

Found Xtensio on a Sunday evening, looking to create Operational memos for team and our CEO. Software seemed alright though I noticed some weird nuances from the beginning. I also noted that the sign up process was struggling with autofill and simply typing in information. Paid my money, confirmed by Apple Card notification, and the very next day I am unable to log in, reset password, or get any help. I have never received confirmation of purchase from company. I just need to edit the memo I created and I paid money to be able to do that exactly and I cannot do it. Not sure where they are based but if you aren't running tech support by 8 AM EST you're not serious about customer support and service

PROS

Made one document, fairly easy to use and intuitive.

CONS

No Refund policy after purchase Glitchy log in and account creation process Non-responsive technical support and customer service Text boxes are no longer accessible once base text is deleted. You have to delete it and create a new one

Reasons for switching to Xtensio

Bad experience

Vendor Response

Hi Patrick, Thank you for your review and I'm sorry for your frustration. As we touched on yesterday when speaking, it seems that you misspelled your email when signing up which accounts for why you weren't able to login and why you didn't receive a receipt. We are located in California and are a small team so we can't always reply back right away or specifically in your time zone, but I do make an effort to reply back as soon as possible and within 24 hours. I do see that we were able to help you out with your account login within 30 minutes of your initial reply so I'm sorry if you were unhappy with that support. Regarding modules, you can always add additional content into an existing module without deleting and adding a new one. Just place your cursor inside the module and start typing! If you have any further questions or concerns, let me know and I'm happy to help. We also offer onboarding calls to help you get started. Best, Lauren

Best kept secret for creating personas

My clients love the format and the shareable link access.

PROS

Xtensio makes it easy to focus on the content of my personas vs the layout. The template options allow me to customize the presentation for my client's brand colors. I also love it for case studies and retrospectives.

CONS

I would like to be able to create a timeline feature and have a template that supports this. Also sometimes on long files it can be hard to position content blocks using drag and drop if the destination position is off screen. It would be nice to have ordinality for each major content block so I can just type in "2" and then that whole block will move the second position.

Reason for choosing Xtensio

It's the first of its kind and best in class.

Reasons for switching to Xtensio

Easy to use interface, slick customizable templates, ability to sort projects and create teams with limited access to content.

PROS

The templates offered are highly valuable and enlightening, effectively alleviating the challenges of writer's block by providing comprehensive examples and guidelines for both myself and my students to follow in our specific contexts.

CONS

The complimentary version offers access to 3 templates. It would be advantageous if they could offer approximately 5 free templates for us to evaluate and explore a wider range of desired templates and applications before making a decision to upgrade to the professional version.

Great tool for creating professional-looking documents

PROS

The platform allows me to create beautiful and professional-looking documents, such as business plans, proposals, and presentations, without needing any design skills. One of the things I love about Xtensio is the wide variety of templates available. Whether I need to create a marketing plan or a project proposal, there's a template that fits my needs. The drag-and-drop interface makes it easy to customize the templates and add my own content.

CONS

While using Xtensio, I did encounter an issue with exporting Chinese characters. However, I reported this bug to their customer support team and was pleasantly surprised by how quickly they were able to fix it for me in just a week!

CONS

Vendor Response

Hi Andreanne, Thank you for sharing your experience using Xtensio with the Capterra community! Xtensio is a cloud-based platform and is a freemium products - so while we don't have trials, you can always use the free plan to explore the digital sharing options. On the free plan, you can share folios as both live, responsive web pages and full-screen digital slideshow presentations. The great thing about sharing your folio as a live link via the 'Get Link' icon is that all changes are synced with this live link, so you won't have to send an updated PDF attachment every time you make an edit. Exports are a paid feature. If you'd like to download your folio as a PDF/PNG folio, you can also purchase export credits as an add-on to the free plan or upgrade to any of our premium plans for unlimited exports, more folios and other premium features. Let me know if you have any other questions. Best, Lauren Haynes Xtensio Customer Success

Terrible value for the money

Terrible terms of service. Do not use this software if you don’t want to pay the Pro Plan until the end of your life as all your work will be deleted immediately after you downgrade.

PROS

Very nicely designed and easy to use as there are many templates available.

CONS

Pricing is ridiculous. For the free version you get very limited file size so an upgrade to the Pro Plan is going to be necessary, which is fine. But once you downgrade (even if it is the first day in your new billing period) they delete Everything. You have no option to save your work for the future when you may upgrade again to edit the previous work.

Vendor Response

Hi Sandor, Thank you for sharing your experience using Xtensio with the Capterra community. We're looking into ways to restructure the cancellation policy to allow for cancellation of the auto-renewal, but, unfortunately, it's not currently possible to keep a subscription active after cancelling. We also plan to add a parking plan so you can keep your folios while not actively on a subscription plan. We hope you'll continue exploring the platform on the free plan! Remember, you can always archive a folio to make room for a new one on your dashboard. Best, Lauren from Xtensio

pros and cons

In overall it is nice and handy

PROS

A nice set of templates Good instructions. Good quality exports.

CONS

Not a lot of graphical backgrounds. Why not export to Word / pages / powerpoint instead of pdf. anyway it is simpler to edit the text there and make small changes. And there are plenty of PDF to DOC converters... so give this options as an addon for extra money. people will like it. The UI is jumping a lot and not very responsive sometimes. especially when dragging contents. Not a lot of diagramming capabilities. example - radar charts for product comparison etc.

Vendor Response

Hi David, Thanks for taking the time to share your experience using Xtensio! We appreciate the feedback as we continue to build more modules and templates. As for exporting as a PPT/DOC, the web-builder design function in Xtensio's editor is not compatible with these other tools. I encourage you to explore link sharing and presenting from in the app to simplify your workflow and keep everything in one place! Best, Lauren from Xtensio
