Considered Both Products
Frame.io
Chose Frame.io
frame.io being included in the Adobe stack meant I never even tried another service because it was so seamless.
Chose Frame.io
Frame is a better product for just video of course - MarkUp (our own product) does a lot more than video
Chose Frame.io
Box provides company-wide storage for our teams and remains our baseline file storage system; however, it is extremely limited for collaboration. Frame.io's review/comment system tags videos by timeline, making it invaluable for receiving client feedback and completing creative …
Chose Frame.io
Frame.io seamlessly integrates with the rest of the Adobe software, so it streamlines our processes. It’s also very intuitive and easy to use.
Chose Frame.io
Frame.io is slightly different from the rest of the media management tools I've used. It being able to integrate directly into Premiere is a game changer. It makes it so much easier to collaborate on videos, organize footage, and know who's working on what projects at any given …
Chose Frame.io
Frame.io's integration with other Adobe products makes it a great choice. Being able to mark up the files to show edits makes it a much better tool than some of the alternatives where you can only leave comments.
Chose Frame.io
Asana is better for task management. Frame.io works best for feedback purposes before posting to Asana.
Chose Frame.io
Wipster is better for smaller teams but lacks some of features of Frame.io
Chose Frame.io
I don't think another product like Frame.io exists. When I first started to use it, I loved it. The download, syncing with premiere, versioning, all of the features are great. I just feel like you guys do too many updates that aren't necessary.
Chose Frame.io
There is no other app that compares
Chose Frame.io
Harder for reviews, but a good trail of information
Chose Frame.io
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 …
Chose Frame.io
I would choose playbook it has more options
Chose Frame.io
Our organization chose Frame.io because, in our experience, Frame.io is a friendly tool
Chose Frame.io
We chose Frame.io for our organization because, in our opinion, Frame.io has Better scrubbing
Chose Frame.io
Our organization chose to purchase Frame.io because, in our opinion, it doesn’t compare!
StreamWork
Chose StreamWork
Better than PageProof. Different from Workfront, so it's not a 1-to-1 comparison.
Chose StreamWork
StreamWork's Asana integration was the stand-out. I could not find any other platform that integrated so seamlessly into our existing process and automations.
Chose StreamWork
Compared to the other tools that I have used, StreamWork offers the most flexibility for internal and external needs. Workamajig was my favorite for centralizing a creative brief and creating a clear flow of approvers internally, but it never worked as expected with external …

Likelihood to Recommend
Excellent for editing down raw video captures of educational webinars. Questions from the audience can sometimes be too case specific, and would not be a value-add to a posted recording, and sometimes the presenter needs a topic to be edited down for time as well. Frame.io is great for allowing teams to give their feedback on the video so that everyone has input on which portions are most valuable/should be removed.

1) I like that "Approvals" are on the main nav as this expedites my workflow as I'm QA for all our projects. I save time by not delving down into each project workspace 2) The Approval widget on the dashboard is also a time saver! 3) The "Review Approvals" section - I like being able to see the status of each user's approval process so I can send reminders 4) The "Skip Decision" feature is helpful as we're entering holiday season with folks being OOO.... we want to avoid gatekeeping/blockers. 5) While I haven't yet used the split review process, I can see how it will be helpful on my large-scale, long-term projects.

Pros
  • Allows clients to make frame-specific notes, so there is no confusion what they are talking about.
  • When multiple stakeholders are making notes, platform automatically sorts them chronologically in the video.
  • Multiple stakeholders giving notes can see when their note conflicts with a colleague's.

  • Centralizes feedback so comments and approvals aren’t scattered across emails or docs
  • Integrates with Asana, keeping tasks aligned without extra duplication
  • Simple, intuitive interface that makes setup and adoption quick

Cons
  • 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.

  • External Reviewer Experience - making sure they understand how to comment / markup correctly, or simplifying the external reviewer interface even more.

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.

Usability
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.

Support Rating
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.

Box provides company-wide storage for our teams and remains our baseline file storage system; however, it is extremely limited for collaboration.
