Forget the PDF comments - get ReviewStudio!

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

PROS

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!

CONS

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.

Vendor Response

Hi Chris - Thanks for your positive review. Regarding your request - just wanted to let you know that there is an article and video tutorial available in our knowledge base that is specifically designed to onboard new reviewers. You can share the link to this article with your clients but we will also take steps to make this information more obvious when a new user first accesses the application.

Great and simple

PROS

Ability to put multiple reviews into a project, or put multiple files into reviews.

CONS

Markup tools could be expanded on. Also the timeline loops all the time on accident, the feature is nice but very touchy as it is.

Reasons for switching to ReviewStudio

Technically only for video, and clients still emailed back responses that could get lost

ReviewStudio Review

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.

PROS

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.

CONS

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.

Vendor Response

Hi Josh, Good to have you on board. I should mention we launched an onboarding tour a while back to highlight key features. This should bring your clients up to speed faster. I should also mention we've done a redesign of the canvas a few months back, further aimed at making the client experience more intuitive.

Streamlined Collaboration and Approval Process with ReviewStudio

Our overall experience with ReviewStudio has been positive. It has become an integral part of our workflow, especially for internal and external reviews of our creative projects. The platform's user-friendly interface has made it easy to onboard team members and contractors, and the customer support has been exceptional.

PROS

ReviewStudio's intuitive interface and collaboration features accommodates our review and approval process. We especially love the platform's ability to accommodate multiple users and roles, along with its in-platform and external notification systems. Versioning have also been a key feature for us, allowing us to track changes.

CONS

We have experienced occasional slow loading times, especially with larger volumes of data. Additionally, we encountered sporadic issues with a specific version of MacOS. While ReviewStudio generally meets our needs, we believe that incorporating a few more features could further enhance the user experience.

Reason for choosing ReviewStudio

We chose ReviewStudio over other alternatives due to its seamless integration into our workflow and its ability to support our specific needs for creative project reviews. The platform's collaborative features and ease of use were key factors in our decision-making process.

Simple, Easy to Use, Gets the Job Done

PROS

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

CONS

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.
