"The best way to collaborate"
5/5
What do you like best about Filestage?

I love that it helps our team be more productive and time efficient. Before Filestage, we were sending emails and attachments asking people around campus to provide edits and suggestions. Now, we have an easy way for people to collaborate, no matter what department or where they are located. SO EASY! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Filestage?

I wish it was friendlier with the Safari browser. It doesn't like website previews in Safari, so we end up using Chrome to access Filestage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Straight forward and user friendly"
5/5
What do you like best about Filestage?

The simplicity of design. As a designer, I look at everything a little differently and can appreciate the nuances. Especially being able to assign projects to other users separately with an automated email that follows up with the user. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Filestage?

The comment section can be out of order. I work on large PDFs, and sometimes, while going in order, the next comment will shoot pages down and then 4 pages back up in the next comment. Also, sometimes the comment won't highlight and when copy editing is has highlights everywhere it becomes difficult to differentiate what the side comment is pointing towards Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Filestage GmbH of Filestage

Hi, thanks so much for taking the time to leave us a review.

We really appreciate you've taken the time and it's so great to see how much you appreciate our intuitive dashboard.

About your feedback on the order of the comments, I wanted to check if you're aware that you can sort the comments in different ways. We'd be happy to show you where you can tweak this.

So please drop us a message on chat if you'd be interested to hear more about that or if there's anything else we can help with.

Thanks again,

What do you like best about Filestage?

The ability to review websites is amazing! I like to see the comments and comments' comments. The ability to draw on the site or the pdf (or whatever document) is amazing/ Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Filestage?

The PPTs always display incorrectly which is a severe flaw. I wish I could enter hex codes for the colored annotations and fill in colored shapes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Multiple channels of feedback made simple"
4/5
What do you like best about Filestage?

Having a matrix of ways to add documents, reviewers, and stages that allows me to control who's giving feedback, when they're giving it by, and on what. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Filestage?

My reviewers have had many frustrating experiences with logging into their reviewer profile. It's also difficult to leave comments on excel sheets because the lines are so thin and the dots/pins are so large. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Filestage?

1) I like the filestage beacause it feels lighter than other review portals which i used so for

2) its simple, nothing complicated even first time user can be familiar with 1st attempt

3) lighter does not need high-speed internet even can review from mobile

4) everyone is demanding fiestage for review in my organization

keep going no match for filesatge till yet Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Filestage?

Sometimes it shows an inaccurate pointer as I give a comment on a specific time it shows on the previous or next frame but have not faced this issue in recent days. No problem with that

I would like to suggest more storage for basic user Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Super convenient, effective way to get feedback and review content"
4/5
What do you like best about Filestage?

The fact that client can give their feedback on exact parts of the videos, for more accuracy and time-saving precision. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Filestage?

It gets a bit slow, and it's hard to navigate when we have a lot of different projects. The search bar should be easier and more reactive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Filestage GmbH of Filestage

"Good for most, but does need improvement"
4/5
What do you like best about Filestage?

Leaving comments for amends is extremely easy, especially with timestamped audio. I also like the ability to upload other versions on top of v1, keeping things tidier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Filestage?

There is no option to listen to audio faster, which as I'm working at a podcast production company adds a lot of time. I also wish there was a way to archive items rather than delete them (if there is a way, I don't have that option). I also wish you could drag and drop items between groups. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Filestage GmbH of Filestage

Hello Abi, thanks for your great feedback!

We really appreciate you've taken the time to leave this review. We're looking forward to collaborating further with you.

We've shared your feedback about the audio speed with our team, and they are looking into it.

"An easy and convenient way for file review."
4.5/5
What do you like best about Filestage?

Filestage is a very easy way to get your file, creatives, audio, and video approved by the stakeholders. It has multiple review stages where you can get the changes done and push the file to the next stage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Filestage?

There is not a major point that I dislike but still, one point I would like to highlight is there must be an option to assign the review task to a specific person or a grouping system inside the reviewer that will make the task simple and all the other reviewers will not have to receive the review prompt (emails and other update notification). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Filestage GmbH of Filestage

Hi Zaffar, thanks for your great feedback!

We really appreciate you've taken the time to leave this review.
