"Instant, Frictionless Screen Sharing"
4.5/5
What do you like best about CrankWheel?

I like CrankWheel for its fast and frictionless experience. I appreciate not needing to schedule meetings or send complicated links. I also like that I don't have to ask clients to download anything—just one link and I'm instantly sharing my screen. The initial setup doesn’t feel like a setup in the traditional sense; it’s more like just getting started. I find everything intuitive from the beginning. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CrankWheel?

One thing I noticed is that it’s not a full all-in-one communication tool. It works perfectly for screen sharing but lacks built-in audio or deeper conferencing features, so you still have to rely on phone calls or another app alongside it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless Screen Sharing - No Downloads, Instant Links, and Great Support"
5/5
What do you like best about CrankWheel?

CrankWheel is one of the easiest screen sharing tools I’ve used. What really stands out is that the person you’re sharing your screen with doesn’t have to download anything. You just send them a link, they click it, and you’re connected almost instantly. It works on both PC and Mac, which makes it even more convenient.

One thing I’ve found helpful is grabbing a simple domain (I used GoDaddy, it’s under $15 a year) and forwarding it to my CrankWheel link. That way, when I’m on the phone with someone, I can just give them an easy web address to type in instead of having to send a long link.

I’d recommend this to anyone who needs to show something visually, whether it’s explaining a product, walking a prospect through something, or helping a customer with support. A lot of people don’t realize how much easier conversations become when you can just share your screen instead of trying to explain everything verbally.

It’s also really simple to use day-to-day. It runs as a Chrome extension, so it’s always right there when you need it. Setup is quick, and it fits easily into your workflow.

Another nice feature is that your meetings are recorded and kept for up to 6 months, which makes it easy to go back and review or reference past sessions if needed.

On top of that, their support has been great. They’re proactive and make sure you’re getting the most out of the tool, which is something you don’t always see.

Overall, it’s a simple, reliable solution that just works. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CrankWheel?

There’s honestly not a lot to dislike. If anything, because it’s designed to be so simple, it doesn’t have all the extra bells and whistles you might find in more advanced screen sharing platforms. For most situations that’s actually a plus, but someone looking for a lot of customization or advanced features might feel it’s a bit limited.

Other than that, it does exactly what it’s meant to do, and it does it really well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless Client Connections with CrankWheel"
5/5
What do you like best about CrankWheel?

I use CrankWheel to connect with my customers and show them the products available for them. It is easy to use; I can just email or text my clients, and that's it. They can see what I have on my phone or laptop without needing to call or download another app. It's easy and faster, which I really appreciate. What I also like is that you can use it for free as well. The way that you connect with the client is awesome. The initial setup was really easy for me, and I would absolutely recommend it to others, giving it a solid 10. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CrankWheel?

"Efficient Prospecting Tool with Seamless Integration"
5/5
What do you like best about CrankWheel?

I do like how simple CrankWheel is. It's not difficult at all to manage or configure, and the fact that it's an extension makes it really worthwhile. It's very convenient. I just love the integration parts of it and how accessible it is to all platforms like Google or Microsoft. It's all in sync and provides an all-in-one solution. The initial setup was absolutely straightforward, very simple, very easy, and very manageable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CrankWheel?

I feel like when it comes to customizing CrankWheel, you should be able to customize it to fit your brand or your company's brand, whether it's changing the theme, the color, adding the logo, etcetera. I do feel like it should definitely be worked on to be customizable more. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Instant Screen Sharing, Perfect for Non-Tech Savvy Clients"
5/5
What do you like best about CrankWheel?

I find CrankWheel incredibly valuable for running live screen-sharing demos. It's easy for clients to join instantly, which is a huge advantage, especially for those who aren't tech-savvy. The quality is great and the service is very reliable, making our process a lot smoother without any lag or setup issues. The ease of use and instant access are major benefits, and everything just works efficiently without slowing down the conversation. Also, the initial setup was an extremely smooth process.

What do you dislike about CrankWheel?

More integrations and customization options would improve the experience. CRM and calendar integrations, plus more branding customization. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

5/5
What do you like best about CrankWheel?

I find CrankWheel incredibly easy to use, and it eliminates all the hassle and technical difficulties I experience with other platforms. The screen sharing and recording features are mainly what I use and value the most. When my health insurance provider showed it to me, I found the setup process to be really easy.

What do you dislike about CrankWheel?

I find the emailing links feature a bit frustrating because it automatically tries to open the desktop app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless Remote Presentations, Simple Setup"
5/5
What do you like best about CrankWheel?

I use CrankWheel to connect with customers so they can see my sales presentations. It's very simple to implement for both myself and customers. The best part for me is the short number of steps it takes to implement on the customer's behalf. Installing the extension into my Chrome browser was very simple, with no problems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CrankWheel?

The only issue is explaining the concept of the software to those that aren't as tech savvy. 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!

"Intuitive Interface, Cumbersome Initial Setup"
5/5
What do you like best about CrankWheel?

I like the easy user interface of CrankWheel. I also appreciate that no app or other software is needed, just a click on the link is required. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CrankWheel?

I couldn't set it up at the beginning as indicated in the manual. I would say it was a bit complicated, a manual was sent which I followed to the letter, but I couldn't configure the logo or identifier for the company I work for. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
