"Great Platform for Internal and External File Reviews"
5/5
What do you like best about Filestage?

Comments that contradict each other can be avoided because everyone can see them. It's fantastic since it's simple to follow which scenes are receiving comments, especially for animations. You may control who sees which internal and external comments. It's also a good idea to stay away from comments written in handwriting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Filestage?

Although I don't have many complaints about Filestage, I would like to point out that occasionally, when I upload a PDF with a lot of gradient usage or a specific hue (made and exported using the RGB colour space), the formatting or colours will be off. 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.

It's really great to see how much your team benefits from bundling the communication for all types of files in one place.

Thank you also for your feedback on the difficulties with gradients. The good news is, that our development team is already on top of that and I'm sure very soon everything will be displayed colorfast.

If there is anything else we can help with, please feel invited to drop us a message at any time.

Thanks again
