The whole team adopted it in a fortnight

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. Worth the migration effort, which is not something I say often.

What works

Custom request forms that route intake with the right fields. Everyone can see what is due this week without asking. Automation handles the routine handoffs between teams.

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

What works

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

What does not

Reporting is weaker than the task management.

The whole team adopted it in a fortnight

We rolled it out to twenty two people and adoption was close to complete within a month. 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. If you are weighing it up, do the trial with your own data and you will see it.

What works

Custom item types for modelling briefs, campaigns and assets. Automation handles the routine handoffs between teams. The mobile app is good enough for approvals on the road.

What does not

Reporting is weaker than the task management.

Simple enough that people actually use it

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. Worth the migration effort, which is not something I say often.

What works

In browser proofing and mark up for images, video and PDFs. The mobile app is good enough for approvals on the road. Everyone can see what is due this week without asking.

What does not

Seat bands mean paying for people who do not exist.

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

What works

Custom request forms that route intake with the right fields. The mobile app is good enough for approvals on the road. Client facing views mean fewer status emails.

What does not

Without governance the number of boards grows out of control.

Good value, occasional performance problems

It works, we just had to redo our structure after four months of getting it wrong. Version tracked approval cycles that replace email chains. 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. Task management is reliable.

What does not

The learning curve for the advanced features is real. There is no native time tracking.

Response from the vendor20 Jul 2026

Thank you for the feedback and for being a customer. We have shared your comments on the mobile experience with our product team, and a redesigned application is currently in beta.

Great tool, we built it badly at first

It works, we just had to redo our structure after four months of getting it wrong. Custom item types for modelling briefs, campaigns and assets. 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. It is a reasonable choice, provided you know what it does not do.

What works

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

What does not

There is no native time tracking. Performance degrades on a large workspace.

Response from the vendor21 Jul 2026

We appreciate you taking the time to write this up. The support delay you experienced is not the standard we hold ourselves to, and we have followed up internally. Please reach out directly and we will assist.

Good value, occasional performance problems

Half the team lives in it and half still work from email. Custom item types for modelling briefs, campaigns and assets. 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. Good value, with some real rough edges.

What works

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

What does not

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

Time tracking in the same tool changed our billing

We rolled it out to twenty two people and adoption was close to complete within a month. Custom request forms that route intake with the right fields. 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. The mobile app is good enough for approvals on the road. Everyone can see what is due this week without asking.

What does not

Without governance the number of boards grows out of control.
