White Label Design Tool That Can Be Embedded & White Labeled
Overall experience with Design Huddle, their team and their platform has been A+ We've been using their platform now for over a year and so grateful we found them when we did!
PROSOur team was looking for a solution to provide our clients with a web-based design tool within our existing platform (education and agency services). Design Huddle's platform was the perfect fit, with a robust API (not to mention the DH team was willing to adjust their roadmap to our needs).
CONSNo complaints. Any bugs we ran into during implementation were small and dealt with swiftly thanks to the amazing support and communication from our dedicated account rep.
Reason for choosing Design Huddle
The Design Huddle API. Their personalized support and customer service. I felt like Design Huddle really understood our use case and took the time to help make sure our implementation went smoothly.
Vendor Response
Thank you for taking the time to review Design Huddle, we are so pleased to hear you're happy with the product and the level of support you've received. Thank you again!

Fresh new alternative in a field of cumbersome outdated options
We use Design Huddle as a web to print solution. Customers design personalized products using templates on our site, and we print and ship them to the customer. We went to Design Huddle after finding that the alternatives are all offering out of date software with out of date pricing structures. There were only two other contenders that we found (after years of using one option + much research), and both of them fundamentally diverged from our way of working (think custom development etc). We do have a niche, specific use case, and Design Huddle was happy to accommodate and continues to work with us and to be a valued partner. We look forward to continuing to grow together as their product grows further.
PROSThe service, team, and communication make all the difference. Rather than nickel and diming us for support, they appreciate our input and use that to enhance their overall product offering. We know that we can get answers right away whenever we need, and we feel like we matter as a client. Even (so to speak) custom enhancements were able to be discussed. Their whole approach is that of a startup. While the product is scaleable and enterprise grade, they don't just drop the whole thing onto your place and let you figure it out; they guided us through the integration training and setup, etc. The actual UI is very good. It's not (yet) something that will compete with Adobe, but it's as good or better than any other web to print software that we've looked at (and we've been around the block).
CONSThe software still seems in the early stages, so that means that, for example, the mobile site only became available somewhat recently. Features are still being released. Set up / integration is, as with any enterprise software, on our part. Though they were extremely helpful and walked our developers through the process.
Reason for choosing Design Huddle
Lower barrier of entry; better company/people to work with, more closely aligned goals, evolving, growing product; much less responsibility on our part in managing the software
Reasons for switching to Design Huddle
Described above why we made the switch. We were never happy with MediaClip, and Design Huddle we couldn't be happier with.
Vendor Response
Thank you so much for taking the time to review Design Huddle, we're so happy to hear that you are pleased with not only the product but also the service. We are grateful for the partnership and look forward to growing with you! Thank you again!

Sotfware Documentation Improvement
The product is great! I like your can have many options to choose from to feed your company designs
CONSI would say documentation is a key and that DH is missing. If you have a opportunity firsthand to attend the orientation to go over the software, you're fine. However, if the new person who takes on the project and doesn't know much about software configuration, that would be a issue for them.
Vendor Response
Thank you for your review of Design Huddle! We're sorry to hear that you haven't had as much assistance as you've needed in getting up to speed since your company began using Design Huddle. We would be more than happy to schedule a call to fill in any gaps and get you more comfortable using the product. Please also know that we are actively working on getting our Knowledge Base created and plan to have it live by the end of the year.

Very helpful for design team!
Design Huddle has revolutionized our graphic design team's efficiency, enabling us to expand exponentially. Not only does this remarkably effective tool empower us to offer an array of services to our clients, but it has also effectively halved our designers' workloads, allowing them to devote more time to other projects. It has become an indispensable asset in our design process. I only wish we had discovered it earlier. Moreover, its user-friendly interface simplifies training our franchisees, who may not all be tech-savvy graphic designers. Additionally, the stability, versatility, and excellent support of their API further enhance our experience.
CONSDesign Huddle offers a unique approach compared to other tools, placing a greater emphasis on API integration and customer-side programming. While this may require some additional effort from users, it provides a level of flexibility and customization that sets it apart. In terms of cons, there are none worth mentioning except for the importance of clearly understanding the user authentication process, as there are multiple options available. The team is actively working on refining the user experience, particularly with regards to auto-saving, demonstrating their commitment to continuously improving the platform. Overall, Design Huddle offers a robust and adaptable solution for design collaboration.
Vendor Response
Thank you, Alberto, for this wonderful review, we are so pleased to hear about your success in using Design Huddle and look forward to our continued partnership. Thanks again!

An Incredible Aid to Our Design Team
Our company produces and hosts virtual events for other businesses, corps, and associations - and as such, we are constantly redesigning our platform to match our clients' brand identities. Design Huddle has streamlined this process by making it possible to create large numbers of assets for our clients in a very short timeframe and with many fewer hours than before. The size of the event also dictates how many hours our graphic designers would have needed to work on a single event, and Design Huddle cuts those hours down at an exponential rate. The larger the event, the more time we save by using Design Huddle.
PROSDesign Huddle has helped our graphic design team scale up dramatically. Besides the most obvious benefit - that we can offer vastly more to our clients with the help of this extremely effective tool - our designers have essentially cut their workload in half, and this leaves them more time to allocate to other projects. This tool has been an invaluable part of the design process at our company. Wish we'd found it sooner.
CONSThere are areas for growth within the tool - specific to our company's needs, controlling the alignment of text that automatically re-sizes would be a great help - but the developers are already aware of this and working on it. It's also worth mentioning that they've been highly receptive when our team has reached out with questions, concerns, and other ideas for improvements.
Vendor Response
Thank you for your review! We are so happy to hear about your success using Design Huddle and your ability to decrease time spent on projects. We also appreciate your feedback when it comes to improving the product and look forward to our continued partnership. Thank you again for the review!

Perfect For Franchises
It's been great! [SENSITIVE CONTENT] is very responsive if there is ever anything we need. The platform is easy to use and it works perfectly for our purposes.
PROSI love how user-friendly it is. It makes training our franchisees on the platform really simple, and even though most of them are graphic designers or adept at using technology, they can seamlessly navigate the platform.
CONSThe export limitations would be the biggest thing. We would really love to be able to export the presentations we make in PowerPoint format. Also, if we could directly connect LinkedIn to the platform so we can post directly from the platform, that would be amazing.
Reason for choosing Design Huddle
We didn't find any other products that did what Design Huddle could do.
Vendor Response
Thank you for reviewing Design Huddle! We are happy to hear the product has been easy to use for you and your franchisees! We would love to further discuss your need for exporting presentations to PowerPoint versus PDF and if that functionality makes sense to add to our roadmap. In regards to LinkedIn, we can currently support posting via our Buffer integration but do have a native integration to LinkedIn on our product roadmap. We will follow up with you directly to get you set up and learn more about your use case. Thank you again for your review!

Template Building Process
Design Huddle has provided the ability to partner with a company that is hands-on. I'm able to create a product that is specific to our customers needs.
PROSThis software is geared towards design. I use it to setup templates for customers' branding guidelines. Once I was given a demo and had some follow-up questions, I definitely felt more comfortable working on my own in a short amount of time.
CONSIt would be nice to have a pre-loaded list of available fonts and the ability to upload a pdf file for template setup purposes.
Reasons for switching to Design Huddle
Instability of site and cost.
Vendor Response
Hi Gina, Thank you for taking the time to review Design Huddle. We're glad to hear you feel comfortable using the product. In regards to your concerns, the system does come with a pre-loaded, curated list of google fonts and the easy ability to upload additional font files. You can also create templates from PDFs and we are currently adding the ability to import PDFs into existing projects as well. If you would like more information on these features please feel free to browse our Knowledge Base, or reach out to Support or your Account Manager who would be happy to assist you!

Simple to integrate and intuitive UI/UX, all with exceptional support
Very positive. Their team is unusually responsive and acted on feedback quickly.
PROSAPI documentation and support is top tier. The overall design is very easy to implement, and the frontend iframe integrates seamlessly. The entire product delivers a much more intuitive experience for our end users. Previous solutions required an Adobe suite and a really opinionated order of operations. This is far simpler.
CONSThere are a couple UX tweaks that are being addressed with regards to auto-saving.
Reasons for switching to Design Huddle
Our previous solution was very difficult to onboard new customers and required an in-depth understanding of Adobe Indesign. In addition, the API was very difficult to integrate and the UI was unimpressive. Finally, this came at a significantly greater cost.

Best Tool Ever!
The ability to lock the system has been a great help in maintaining quality control over both our ideas and our name. I have learned a lot from this curriculum and am really satisfied with it.
PROSIf you're a graphic designer or an amateur, Design Huddle is a must-have software. It's quite simple to pick up and use the software. Modifications to the UI and more assets may be introduced to the system. As a result, creating professional-grade digital designs that both function effectively as printed items is a breeze for users.
CONSThe mobile editing version has bugs and might need a bit more customization in a few areas. If not, it's because it won't meet your requirements.
