    Frame.io is best suited if you are on, say, a marketing team and want to get feedback from other team members or leaders on a project you have been working on. Frame.io is less suited to serving as your team's primary storage for raw footage and photos.

    Even for a small business like mine, Yamdu really felt like a one-stop shop for everything. It's hard to find a comprehensive software for film/video productions, but Yamdu has everything we need. The only thing that really held us back was the cost, ultimately. If anything, I would love a storyboarding feature that let you set the time per shot and build out a sequence in pre-production. I used Storyboarder for this currently and it's very helpful, especially for music videos, to be able to build out a storyboard, set a music/audio track to it, then play it back in real time and see the pacing of the shoot.

    Pros
    Adobe
    • 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.

    Cons
    Adobe
    • 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.

    • More specific financial management reports.
    • Creation of some instant messaging software for the team.

    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

    Frame.io continues to lead with new features that enhance collaboration and review workflows. For a Creative agency, it's been a wonderful digital asset management and client collaboration tool, and more. The ease of uploading and adding stakeholders has had an incredible impact on customer response times, helping us retain and delight our clients.

    What you see is what you get. It's easy to start working when you setup your first project. Also team members do not need many new to learn skills to work with the basic functions. Really incredible is Yamdu's help center. It is always available in the right corner. A lot of topics are covered with video links. If you need personal assistance, you can write a message within the help-box and Yamdu's crew is really fast in responding!

    Support Rating

    The few times I have needed support I have received a quick response - though the one major complaint I have had is regarding the omission of an iPad app - supposedly it is in the works but I haven't seen it release yet. We do have issues with the browser being buggy - especially on slow internet. Whether or not that is something support has failed me on, i'm not sure - but they are responsive, but don't always provide immediate results.

    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).

    At the time, there really wasn't anything else like Yamdu. Especially as, in Celtx's case, at that time they weren't doing Excel/CSV exports of shot lists in the A/V format, something we required for what we were shooting. I understand that StudioBinder has increased its featureset the past few years, but Yamdu always felt like the most robust option and more familiar with the film/tv world.

    • Frame.io has shortened our review time considerably, saving time.
    • Frame.io is wonderful for managing a large team of editors, especially for us when we are using in-house staff and contractors.
    • Frame.io has improved the relationship between departments, which was more tense with previous review methods.

    • Positive impact, centralized place with some good tools for film productions
    • Negative impact, not that flexible and as expected and strict pricing policy with little flexibility
