Frame.io is a video collaboration platform, supporting the video editing process by providing creative teams with time stamped comments, annotations and hashtags, and an accelerated sharing and approval process.
Creative Cloud for Enterprise is really built for marketing departments and creative teams where the value comes from breadth and collaboration: shared libraries, consistent brand assets across a dozen people, version control on big campaign files, that kind of thing. If your team needs the whole suite and needs everyone working in the same ecosystem, the enterprise licensing model makes sense, and the price reflects real value.
On a video-by-video basis, Frame.io works perfectly to track comments on individual files. It allows us to bring in different stakeholders and has significantly increased our Creative synergy between our company and clients. The speed at which we can now provide access to assets has removed much of the ambiguity we faced in the past.
Adobe’s enterprise licensing model (VIP, Enterprise Agreement, named users, All Apps vs Single Apps, add‑ons like AI Assistant) is difficult to manage at scale, especially across multiple countries and legal entities.
Adobe’s audit and compliance process is highly punitive in tone and structure, even when issues stem from historical deployments or poor uninstall hygiene.
The cost delta between:
All Apps, Single App, Acrobat + AI Assistant.
Is significant, especially for users that only require sporadic access.
When I mark a video private, it should disable the sharing link. We’ve run into issues where we’ve made a video private, thinking that it was no longer visible, but those with the link could still view it.
Mobile version is great, but sometimes I have to rotate my phone to get the full feature set, which is a little clunky sometimes.
There is nothing out there that can compete with Adobe Creative Cloud for Enterprise. It is the gold standard in the industry and there is nothing else that we would ever consider using. I have opted to train people in lieu of finding anything more cost effective, because it's worth it to me for people to use the right tool for the job.
It works well for our small team, but we’ve run into some friction as things scale. Getting external users set up with the right access can be a bit of a hassle, and the cost starts to add up as we bring on more people and projects. That said, it’s still a solid tool, it definitely speeds up our workflow and works seamlessly with Adobe products.
In terms of overall usability, it ranks really well and is probably a leader in its field. Staff are able to learn the systems straight away due to its in built intuitive interface. Permissions are able to be given at the appropriate level so that it doesn't hold up delivery of assets, but yet keeps security and licence management intact.
I've used other video review systems, Frame was the only one I didn't question how they allowed you to review - I just started reviewing. It's that simple. It's easy to set up projects, invite collaborators, and then provide a final cut for download. It's naturally built for the kind of work that TV/Film & video production companies do.
When sharing videos for feedback, there are no noticeable performance issues with Frame.io. Everyone is able to complete their tasks without the program getting in the way.
I've only reached out to Frame.io a few times but they responded quickly and offered achievable solutions. The fact that I haven't had to reach out to them more is proof that the platform is easy to use, reliable, and can run on its own. The only issues we have had were related to uploading issues on our end.
There is no comparable tool to Adobe Creative Cloud for Enterprise and its apps. Yes, in some professions you can do fine without it, but the level of produced assets will probably be not of the quality you can produce in Adobe Creative Cloud for Enterprise. The sheer width of the apps, covering all aspects of design and production (Images, videos, documents and others) in one ecosystem is a major advantage that no other company can offer, at this scale and quality.
We utilize both Synthesia and Frame.io for different projects. Frame.io we use for editing actual video content that has been captured. Primary use is for customer training and education. We use Synthesia for short-form video production, primarily for software screen recording demonstrations, and for translation functionality (which is excellent).
