Markup.io vs. OpenText Hightail

Scenarios where I find Markup.io appropriate: Sharing files with a client (as an agency) that are not approved but need to visually assessed. Sharing short-term files with external teams Housing client files short-term Scenarios where it is less appropriate: Long term storage of team files Sending approved files to a client

Hightail is my go-to source when I need to send large files that would never fit as regular attachments. That being said, sometimes there are files that would perfectly fit as attachments but I want the security that Hightail provides when sending sensitive or private material. It's very comforting knowing that the content I'm sending is only being received and viewed by the intended parties. It's also comforting for my clients when it's THEIR content that I'm sending for review.

It's UI makes it super easy to use and it has the benefits that I need. I can share a tool with my clients that makes the process easier which makes my firm look good and the fact that the platform is so appealing also makes my firm look good by extension

Figma: Harder to use, steeper learning curve monday.com: still use this and share items occasionally here but more in a back up, repository way. It was hard for clients to find the files Google Drive: not everyone uses Google and sometimes, we had difficulty with Microsoft users WeTransfer: too ephemeral, clients responsible for sending comments via email, gives them too much work which ultimately makes the process harder

Honestly, once we started using Google Drive more efficiently and saw what improvements OpenText Hightail had made, it was hard to choose. But now that we more consistently use Google Drive, I use it probably 75% more than I use OpenText Hightail for the same tasks. I'm not sure how much longer I'll be a customer at OpenText but it's great to have both options.

Incentivized

• Better creative collaboration=increased client satisfaction
• Faster approval process= faster project closure
• Better and more complete annotations= increased client satisfaction

• Hightail simply saves time. We no longer struggle with trying to meet the requirements of OutLook. When we have a file that is too large to send via OutLook we just "hightail it".
