Creative Force Reviews & Product Details

Creative Force provides visibility into the various stages of image creation all under one software. This was a task that was previously handled by multiple tools and required a lot of manual tracking, which takes away from actually doing the work. Creative Force isn't just a software, it's a partnership with a shared goal of creating efficiencies within workflows. The reporting functions have been tremendous in allowing us to speak to our business. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The onboarding work required a lot of time. I wonder if some "presets" or studio best practice templates could help ease the onboarding process. There were times where my team wanted to know how other CF customers were using the tool. Maybe some presets or templates would make onboarding less challenging for smaller teams.

Before using Creative Force, the workflow of production was very cumbersome. Working between several different documents at the same time took time and led to errors in production. Since using Creative Force, our previous challenges are no longer a problem. Having dedicated workflows, style guides, presets, vendor connection, and many other features has made time on set much more enjoyable and easier to transfer any production requirements or changes from team member to team member.

For the most part, Creative Force has made the studio's workflow better. For any problems we may have had, the Creative Force team has been fantastic in resolving the issue or updating a feature. The only pain point I have is the check-in and check-out process. For products with multiple jobs, having a check-in/out all button would be nice. Processing hundreds of samples can get tedious when everything needs to be scanned multiple times because they were shot on two or more jobs. Additionally, it would be helpful to see on the check-in/out screen, when there are multiple jobs, the product's production status of each job to know which one needs to be completed. When a sample is sent numerous times for production on different jobs, it will simplify knowing what needs to be completed during the check-in step. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One of the best thing about the softwear is it abilty to adapt to the users needs.

I have used Creative Force in 2 different studios on a daily basis, for a number of individual clients across those studios and each had their own workflow. I was amazed to see how the Creative Force softwear had been untilised in very different ways while still being user friendly and ultimatly making the process of delivering outstanding work to my clients simpler.

Not only does it make workflow easier from start to finish but it also has great traking abilities and allows me to know exactly where assests are int he system and any time.

I was on the frontline of implimenting the Cretive force system in a studio and the customer support was impecable, there was obviously a period of learning the system and the customer support team were on had to answer any questions we had even the most simple making integration into the studio quick and simple.

Overall my experience of using Creative Force is nothing but good it made my life and my teams lives simpler and allowed us to produce assets quicker while mintaing the same standards. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only negative I have is sometime the soloutions to problems are a little long winded and you have to go thought a number of steps to do something that could be simpler. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Connectivity is sometimes slow. Some tasks (e.g. moving products to another job) take a lot of time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that all the progress of the creative process is real time. All members of the team can access the information at any moment. From my experience using CF in the capture station, the customer service has been always phenomenal. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

In my workflow I have not seen downsizes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

You can tell Creative Force is developed by industry pros with extensive e-commerce backgrounds. Nine times out of ten, there's a solution to your specific problem already built into the system, and if there's not, the Creative Force team will work with you to build it. From the post-production side the amount of manual tracking and filling out information on spreadsheets that Creative Force has eliminated is amazing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are some less than stellar UI situations. Essential features are sometimes buried pretty deep in the interface, and there aren't any options to customize the UI. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ability to effectively track projects throughout the studio workflow, in person or remotely. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Personally, I haven't experienced dislikes to Creative Force. They are open to feedback, have a lot of improvements in the work and quick sprints to fix if something should happen. They contiousnly stay in contact to learn about how you work, what works for you and what you miss to make sure they offer this as soon as possible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

- It is a complete solution: automated & manual data uploads, style guide integrations, metadata use, real-time production status, user-friendly platforms, retouching vendors integration, etc.

- They have an excellent knowledge of the fashion development cycle (a plus) and have a network of high-volume photo studio customers (they understood our requirement on day 1)

- They are structured to process and act on different types of feedback (short- and long-term actions); they release software updates monthly.

- We can now provide assets under several different clients' requirements and over 50 style guides.

- Freelancers can be autonomous quickly since Kelvin module displays the required angles. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Honestly, nothing.

Here is some advice: The onboarding is a bit intense; ensure you have a team not impressed by new technology and set category priority. We were sailing smoothly after 2-3 months Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The UX and their attitude towards supporting the client and improvement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The stiffness of a workflow management system versus the flexibility of manual management. However the benefits outweight this by far. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
