Client reporting takes minutes now

The team asked to keep it after the trial, which has never happened before. In browser proofing and mark up for images, video and PDFs. 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. I would recommend it to a business of our size without hesitation.

What works

Custom item types for modelling briefs, campaigns and assets. Everyone can see what is due this week without asking. Time tracking sits with the tasks, so billing is accurate.

What does not

Without governance the number of boards grows out of control.

Visibility across twelve projects, finally

The team asked to keep it after the trial, which has never happened before. 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. I would recommend it to a business of our size without hesitation.

What works

In browser proofing and mark up for images, video and PDFs. Client facing views mean fewer status emails. Templates mean a new project is set up in minutes.

Client reporting takes minutes now

Client status reporting used to take a morning a week. Now it takes ten minutes. 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. I would recommend it to a business of our size without hesitation.

What works

In browser proofing and mark up for images, video and PDFs. Everyone can see what is due this week without asking. Templates mean a new project is set up in minutes.

What does not

Reporting is weaker than the task management.

Works, but the seat bands hurt at our size

Half the team lives in it and half still work from email. 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. I would shortlist it, not necessarily pick it.

What works

Version tracked approval cycles that replace email chains. Setup was quick.

What does not

Performance degrades on a large workspace. Dollar pricing makes the budget unpredictable.

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. Two years in and nobody has suggested we look at alternatives.

What does not

Seat bands mean paying for people who do not exist.

Time tracking in the same tool changed our billing

Client status reporting used to take a morning a week. Now it takes ten minutes. 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. Two years in and nobody has suggested we look at alternatives.

Custom item types for modelling briefs, campaigns and assets. Automation handles the routine handoffs between teams. Time tracking sits with the tasks, so billing is accurate.

Too slow on our connection to be usable

It became a graveyard of half finished boards nobody trusted. For context, the parts we were sold on never worked the way they were demonstrated. The gaps are the kind that create work rather than save it. We moved to an alternative and the difference was immediate.

What works

The free tier is generous.

What does not

It was too slow on our connection. We paid for a tier we could not make use of. Half the team never adopted it.

We paid for fifteen seats and used nine

It became a graveyard of half finished boards nobody trusted. What surprised me was that the parts we were sold on never worked the way they were demonstrated. The gaps are the kind that create work rather than save it. I would look elsewhere unless price is the only consideration.

What works

It looks good.

What does not

We paid for a tier we could not make use of. It was too slow on our connection. Half the team never adopted it.
