"Crankwheel review from Admin point of view."
What do you like best about CrankWheel?

I like that CrankWheel allows me to share my screen effortlessly without requiring the viewer to download anything. It’s fast, reliable, and very easy to use, especially for quick demos or client presentations. The simplicity of setup makes it ideal for teams that need to share information on the fly without technical complications. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CrankWheel?

What I dislike about CrankWheel is that the interface feels a bit outdated, and the feature set is fairly limited compared to other screen-sharing tools. It can sometimes take a moment for the connection to stabilize, and it doesn’t offer features like remote control or built-in chat. Integration options are also minimal, which makes it harder to use alongside other platforms we rely on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Jói Sigurdsson of CrankWheel

Thank you for the review Oskar! I wanted to very quickly mention that we do offer remote control (https://crankwheel.com/remote-control) although for now you will only see the feature (as a presenter) if you are using Windows, which explains why you might not have. For integration, we are always working to expand our capabilities. At the moment we have our API for native integrations and various forms of embedding, a Zapier integration, and native integrations with 6 different CRMs.

"Scott Coder's review of CrankWheel"
What do you like best about CrankWheel?

There are many elements of CrankWheel I like, but probably one of the best is the ease of the client to use it. I sell life and health insurance over the phone, so as they say, a picture is worth a thousand words, well having the visual of a presentation so easily put to their device, it is incredible. I cannot begin to say how many more deals I have closed because of CrankWheel! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"With the help of CrankWheel now our calls become seamless sales"
What do you like best about CrankWheel?

We discovered how to share your screen without requiring anything from the other side, just a link and some magic, thanks to CrankWheel. Particularly useful when interacting with prospects who are not tech-savvy; with a single click, they can see everything they need, effortlessly. Despite unreliable connections, outdated hardware and outdated web browsers (including Internet Explorer), it still runs smoothly. We take advantage of online lead capture and can turn calls into quick demos all it takes is for a visitor to click, fill out a form, and then we manage to share our screen with them. Now we can get an edge and conversions are triggered by it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CrankWheel?

To access premium features like remote control and bespoke branding, you'll need to upgrade to a paid Chrome extension or plan. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless Screen Sharing for Client Meetings—A Must-Have for Brokers"
What do you like best about CrankWheel?

I love how simple and instant it is to share my screen with clients no downloads, no sign-ups, just a quick link. As an insurance broker, most of my meetings are virtual, and CrankWheel makes it easy to visually walk clients through life insurance illustrations, IUL comparisons, and annuity breakdowns. It’s clean, fast, and reliable even for clients who aren’t tech-savvy. It’s honestly become a non-negotiable tool in my business. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CrankWheel?

There’s not much to dislike. If I had to name one thing, I’d say it occasionally takes a few seconds to load when switching between tabs or sharing a new screen, but it’s a small tradeoff for how smoothly everything else works. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"If you are selling to a less tech savvy demographic and need to share your screen its the only way."
What do you like best about CrankWheel?

People just click and they can see my screen. No app to download, no permissions to try to figure out. Easy to get the link to them via text through the desktop app interface. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CrankWheel?

Video Quality was lacking on webcam even though I have an HD camera, and it looks great on the other video sharing platforms. Kinda clunky on enabling audio to present through one device. But its great if you just use your phone. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"CrankWheel is Amazing!"
What do you like best about CrankWheel?

CrankWheel is very quick and easy to use, it takes seconds for my clients to see my screen. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CrankWheel?

Sometimes the text doesn't get sent to the client's phone and I have to resend it. It can also be challenging for them to find the original link and see my screen again, so sometimes I have to send a new link. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Remote work and agile technical support make it a powerful tool"
What do you like best about CrankWheel?

I can show you my screen in the browser by sending you a link; Crankwheel doesn't waste any time getting to the point. The viewer's simplicity of use is a notable aspect. When other departments, like sales or support, have questions about the software's functionality, I am able to communicate with them much more effectively thanks to this. No longer do I need to instruct them over the phone by stating "click here, now there"; instead, I can just demonstrate. Even complicated stacktraces are easily readable thanks to the transmission's silky smoothness. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CrankWheel?

Even if keeping things simple is good for the users, I still wish I could choose what I share more often. The default setting is to share the whole screen, and while I have the option to select a window, it isn't always as easy as I'd like. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Fast, Intuitive Platform Lacking Audio Integration"
What do you like best about CrankWheel?

For me, ease of use is the most important aspect. The platform is fast and intuitive, making it simple for both customers and users to navigate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CrankWheel?

Unfortunately, there is no audio integration, which is disappointing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Jói Sigurdsson of CrankWheel

Thank you Robert! I wanted to quickly point out that we do have meetings with full audio via the browser, and you can also request your participants to share their webcam into the meeting, but for the audio feature you need to use our "Schedule a Meeting" functionality, so it is not the most common use case and explains why you might have missed it. I'm glad our product has been useful for you in insurance sales!
