Client reporting takes minutes now

The team asked to keep it after the trial, which has never happened before. Version tracked approval cycles that replace email chains. That is the part that genuinely changed how we work. Nothing has come up in the last year that I would call a real problem. Two years in and nobody has suggested we look at alternatives.

What works

Custom request forms that route intake with the right fields. Time tracking sits with the tasks, so billing is accurate. Templates mean a new project is set up in minutes.

What does not

Without governance the number of boards grows out of control.

Visibility across twelve projects, finally

We rolled it out to twenty two people and adoption was close to complete within a month. In browser proofing and mark up for images, video and PDFs. That is the part that genuinely changed how we work. Nothing has come up in the last year that I would call a real problem. It is not perfect, and it is the right choice for us.

What works

In browser proofing and mark up for images, video and PDFs. Everyone can see what is due this week without asking. Automation handles the routine handoffs between teams.

What does not

Seat bands mean paying for people who do not exist.

What works

In browser proofing and mark up for images, video and PDFs. The mobile app is good enough for approvals on the road. Time tracking sits with the tasks, so billing is accurate.

What does not

Reporting is weaker than the task management.

Visibility across twelve projects, finally

We rolled it out to twenty two people and adoption was close to complete within a month. Custom item types for modelling briefs, campaigns and assets. That is the part that genuinely changed how we work. There are irritations, and none of them are the kind that make you look elsewhere. Two years in and nobody has suggested we look at alternatives.

Works, but the seat bands hurt at our size

It works, we just had to redo our structure after four months of getting it wrong. In browser proofing and mark up for images, video and PDFs. Beyond that it is more ordinary than the marketing suggests. It sits squarely in the middle for us, useful but not something I would champion. Fine for our needs. Test it properly against your own requirements.

What works

Version tracked approval cycles that replace email chains. The views are flexible.

What does not

Dollar pricing makes the budget unpredictable. There is no native time tracking.

The whole team adopted it in a fortnight

Client status reporting used to take a morning a week. Now it takes ten minutes. Custom request forms that route intake with the right fields. That is the part that genuinely changed how we work. There are irritations, and none of them are the kind that make you look elsewhere. Worth the migration effort, which is not something I say often.
