Likelihood to Recommend If you're working with tons of files and different types of files and you have to keep them sorted out and be able to tell the differences within the files...this is the best option for you. It will make your life so much easier being able to preview everything quickly while seeing the small details. I do know that some photographers are really happy with how Lightroom catalogs their images, but I think for anyone doing major compositing or video work, Bridge is hands down the way to go. It just saves you so much time and headaches.
Read full review Optimizely Content Marketing Platform has a higher sticker price than some of its competitors. While this is true, you're buying an industry leader with tremendous experience in working with clients for years. Initially, with our Conversion Rate Optimization program, we were wow'd and cajoled into trying the hot bleeding edge features that some newer companies might call AI/algorithmic models-- these are otherwise known as Multi-Armed Bandit campaigns, which isn't a new thing. That being said, contracting and fully utilizing Optimizely Content Marketing Platform's suite of features, professional services, and more may be cost prohibitive for smaller companies. Once a CRO program reaches maturity Optimizely Content Marketing Platform can scale for larger teams where more advanced can utilize server side tests exclusively for seamless experimentation.
Read full review Pros User friendly. Works well in combination with it's other adobe products. Like that's it's included in the cost of Creative Cloud. Read full review Customer Service: They'll contact you with a "we're looking at your issue" email within the hour, even on weekends and holidays. Beyond solving your issues/problems with the software, they'll also follow up later to make sure you don't have additional associated issues. Live Analytics: You're given a snapshot of how your blog content is doing at any point in time, since they've been tracking your posts/content. You can compare this month's traffic to last year's trafffic during this same month. Other data points include: Unique Visitors, Average Attention Time, Pageviews, Engagement Rate, etc...and you'll even get referral traffic source. There's much more that I'm leaving out here. CMP User Interface (UI): Love the easy to use interface to upload blog posts, to use for editing and publishing content, and broadcasting social shares. Besides easily identifiable icons, you can create/edit content in the WYSIWYG or use the html view to make sure everything looks exactly how you prefer. Another cool thing is that the CMP auto-embeds live links of social updates (like Youtube, Twitter, Instagram) for more dynamic blog posts. Mai Le Content Marketing Specialist
Read full review Cons User interface could be more friendly--currently it has a very techy feel Sometimes it’s a bit slow to load the program initially Read full review Remove the preview option when clicking once. It'll be nicer if we click and being provided with both options instead. Provide the option to download an entire folder of docs without entering to the folder itself. 'Watch' option for specific docs, not just for folders... Read full review Usability The workflow steps are a key part of our process now. Creating the accountability for someone to take action ensures that things don’t get lost in communication. The asset library is another substantial benefit to our business. Having approved assets available to other teams around the world reduces the need for email requests.

Read full review We started with
DivvyHQ and moved to Welcome for reasons that I cannot remember at this time. The migration was a couple of years ago now. I enjoyed both tools, but I do think Welcome makes it easier to track workflows, edits, and comments specifically. These are all key elements when dealing with content and it has made a huge difference.
Read full review Return on Investment It's saved me probably thousands of hours at this point. I used to spend so much time looking for different files and now I can find them all quickly. I can now decide which are the 15 images I will deliver from a portrait session within 10 minutes. It used to take me around an hour to open them each up and start deciding. I quit negatively speaking to myself for misnaming files and then never being able to find them. I only complain about Adobe Bridge when it doesn't work with a firewall and I have to turn it off or restart my computer.
