Authory Reviews & Product Details

I've tried other portfolio products. For me, Authory stands head and shoulders above anything else I've used. The functionality and look-and-feel have helped me create a portfolio that reflects my decades of work as a freelancer.

Their customer service is excellent. When I discovered broken links to podcast episodes, Eric helped me suss out the issue with my podcast host. After that was done, he re-imported my podcast collection and got everything back on track. Eric went above and beyond to help me solve an issue that was driving me crazy. Well done!

Not too much to dislike. Everything is straightforward. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Authory allows you to automatically pull in content that you are credited with or add content that you ghostwrite. You can arrange your content into an unlimited number of collections so you can highlight exactly what you need for a specific client. You can also bring Authory over to your own website so your portfolio page there is constantly updated. I pretty much use it every day and any question I ask is very quickly answered by customer support. In fact, they've updated the help guides a few times based on my questions, so they are incredibly diligent about improvement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There really isn't much to dislike... For someone just starting out, it might be on the pricey side. And, if you need to upload multiple articles, you have to confirm the source each time. I reached out to ask if there was a way around this when I had more than a hundred articles from the same source and they offered to do it for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Authory is one of many platforms I have explored in creating a portfolio for my freelance writing work, and I can confidently say it's the smartest. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There aren't really any downsides - it would be great to see Authory become accessible to more writers though! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Though I have been using Authory for a year however, just recently, I fully understood the scale of helpful tools available in it. As a freelance author, my biggest challenge has been providing central access to my publications in so many different newspapers or magazines. In the past, I had set up my own website where I would copy and paste my articles for ease of access. But now it's not possible for multiple reasons. Authory provides one central place from where my readers can access all of my publications, including scientific publications and even LinkedIn or Twitter posts. It also connects with my YouTube videos and podcasts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Noting in particular. The front page is evolving and now is much better for ease of use Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This is a great idea and it definitely makes my articles and posts more accessible to people. I publish articles on LinkedIn, but usually someone would need to log in to LinkedIn to be able to read the articles and view posts. However, not all my clients and potential clients have LinkedIn. So Authory solves that problem. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Payment info is needed up front before starting the trial. A pre-paid debit card that I tried to use was probably not accepted as a payment method. When I put in the pre-paid card info, a message popped up saying "oh snap, something went wrong." It's frustrating that the message didn't identify the problem and just said that something went wrong. I had to guess that it was the pre-paid card and then used a regular credit card, which worked.

Authory automates the collection of my writing across multiple publishers and allows me to categorize them in any way I wish, then present my clips to prospective employers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Not much to dislike as it runs automatically. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Authory does the work of collecting all your bylines for you, making it incredibly simple to create an online portfolio with all your work in one place. Using Authory instead of creating a portfolio website from scratch saves time and ensures that your website looks professional. It takes less than 20 minutes to set up, and you can also upload a profile and cover photo to personalize your portfolio. Though I contemplated creating my own website using a different platform, I'm extremely glad I decided to go with Authory. I also like that you can create different collections to organize your work and showcase pieces you are particularly proud of. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Once in a while Authory doesn't find an article or two and you have to them manually, but that rarely ever happens. Overall the website works as it should and doesn't glitch or malfunction. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Authory is a pretty feature rich site. this is more than just a digital folder for your work. you also get detailed stats on how your articles preform on different social media outlets such as Twitter, Facebook, Pinterest, and LinkedIn. you can also have readers subscribe to your page after which you can send them email updates and newsletters to keep them posted on what's going on and keep them engaged Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It took a while for some of my sources to populate to the site. It's usually 24–48 hours, but it took about four days for me cause I had a LOT of sources. But overall, it has been a good experience and well worth it for the price. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I was excited to discover Authory through SPJ. The creator/founder/CEO, Eric, was responsive, pleasant, helpful. He cares about the software and in using it, I am impressed with how well he made sure it was, the solutions it delivers, the ease of use. Thank you! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
