ReviewStudio

Pros: ReviewStudio makes it very easy to compare versions, and the team love the ability to draw on the artwork and add comments directly. Relatively low cost for the functionality it provides. Allows external/guest reviewers which is useful for collaborating with our suppliers/printers. Easy to talk to customer service whenever needed.

Cons: Workflow notifications sometimes don't get delivered, but our product team lives in this system and the internal notification feed/page is up to date.

Pros: The ease of use and customer communication. Being able to review multiple versions of a file. The resolution of viewing files.

Cons: Needs display of size of documents. Better measuring tools and rulers. Also needs to be able to display overprints.

Pros: I like that comments are marked in place within the documents and compiled as a list for easy tracking. The dashboard is great for seeing where proofs are in process.

Cons: When approvals are made by a client early in a job before all items have been added the system removes them from the list of people who receive updates. Adding them back after can be a small, but frustrating, added step.

Pros: The real-time collaboration features are incredibly smooth and intuitive. It’s easy to share feedback with team members, track version history, and leave precise comments on creative assets. The interface is clean and user-friendly, even for non-technical users.

Cons: The mobile experience could be more refined—some tools feel limited on smaller screens. Also, it would be great to have more integration options with project management platforms.

Pros: I like how user friendly it is. The interface is very clean and professional for our clients to view as well, which I appreciate.

Cons: I haven't really run into many issues yet. I haven't worked with it long though. So far everything seems to be running smoothly!

Pros: Being able to have design work, photos, and videos all in one place for quick and easy notes and markups has been really helpful for our teams working remote.

Cons: I think some of the organizational systems review studio currently has could be better. It can be a little confusing in the backend for keeping projects organized.

Pros: Review Studio had no problem handling our 400+ page catalog, which is primarily why we use the platform. We also use the platform to manage internal proofs and reviews for other clients and projects, and have found it to be very useful in reviews and approval for web or design tasks.

Cons: I was excited about the Monday.com integration that recently came out, but we have had some trouble utilizing the integration as the connection does not seem to be reliable at this time.

Pros: really user friendly. in production, thes graphists use it everyday, and the feedbacks from the clients are really good

Cons: the loading time to access to one review

Pros: User friendly allowing new team members to easily join the proofing process

Cons: adding new users/payment processing. it gives our organization a hard time every time we try to add a new user.

Pros: A maneira prática e objetiva que são debatidos os ajustes de um projeto.

Cons: Não existir uma versão em Portugues BR, iria facilitar nosso trabalho.

Pros: ReviewStudio solves misunderstanding between it's users

Cons: There's nothing I dislike about ReviewStudio.

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.

Pros: I like that you're able to tag people and it will notify them and also be able to add feedback/edits right there and then. I use it a lot and I like that for each project, no matter how many revisions were uploaded, it was still the same URL.

Cons: Nothing at this time. So far ReviewStudio is simple to use and access.

Pros: - URL doesn't change when you upload new proofs. - you can upload multiple files (mixed file types) to the same proof

Cons: - can't add all users to a proof in one click - the commenting/assigning of tasks is clunky - communication from the company about updates and outages is poor

Pros: All of the content that I am creating for my clients can be organized in one place for the clients to provide feedback on it. This saves a lot of time, and it is easy to use.

Cons: Adding emails manually every time to a new board.

Pros: Having all the feedback and uploaded references in one easy to access place online is crucial for us. It helps keep accountability on both artists and clients. Also, we prefer to support Canadian businesses.

Cons: Separating Internal and External comments would be nice. Pricing has increased over the years.

Pros: 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.

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

Pros: I love that I can load graphics, PDFs and URLs for review and gather feedback and revisions all in one place. It saves me time and energy of search through my inbox for client feedback. I also like that I can tag clients with questions if needed and they can mark up specific parts of the document so I know exactly what needs revising.

Cons: The only feature I wish it had was the ability to send emaill marketing test drafts to it for review.

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.

Pros: The fact that we can document internal and external edits to all versions of a project and have it stored in one location.

Cons: Some of the tools aren't so intuitive and it can be easy to upload a project to the wrong spot if you aren't paying careful attention.

Pros: It does exactly what we need it to do. Go through a approval and check process for all artwork.

Cons: If something is rejected in a workflow, the work flow ends there and there is no way of creating an alternate workflow for the rejection process.

Pros: 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

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

Pros: Ability to track all comments. Ability to archive comments. VERY easy to use.

Cons: Checking on comments away from a computer can be a bit tedious. An app or better UI for remote checking of comments would be nice.
