"Turning digital storytelling up to 11"

5/5

What do you like best about Shorthand?

I like the dynamism, the beauty of the layout possibilities and the features that help a story come to life. This format allows us to add dimension (e.g. video, static shots, maps, etc.) that helps to give our stories the depth and beauty that is commensurate with the subject matter. We treat our stories and the people that we work with seriously - and we need a platform that can help us communicate that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Shorthand?

I don't like that you can't edit or make changes once you've published. Also, it would be great if you could manipulate font sizes in the body text. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Shorthand:

Shorthand has been incredible so far - and we're just getting started. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Shorthand solving and how is that benefiting you?

Shorthand allows our stories to reach a broader audience. Shorthand makes our stories more visceral, and ultimately more powerful, which is important since we really want people to understand more about the work that UNDP does. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Ricky Robinson of Shorthand

[Editedit](https://www.g2.com/survey_responses/shorthand-review-711438/official_response/edit)

Thank you for the great review!

I just wanted to jump in to say that making edits once you've published is as simple as making your changes in the editor and then clicking the republish button. Done! Of course, if you're hosting the stories on your own infrastructure and you've added custom code by hand after you've exported, then you'll need to re-apply that custom code. For this reason, we strongly recommend that you add any custom code through the Shorthand interface, then republishing your exported stories becomes trivial. Unfortunately, we of course have no control over what happens to a story once it's been exported from our platform.

Since your review, we've also added many formatting options to the editor, including the ability to more easily change the size of headers/titles.

We really appreciate that you took the time to leave us a review, and thank you for the kind words!
