1 / 7

Markup Hero just works and I use it nearly every day now

Pros

  • Annotating PDF's - So nice for long real estate setup sheets
  • Muli-page annotations - critical for PDF's but super useful for sending multiple properties to customers
  • Simplicity - the tool is so simple and easy to use; I can screenshot, upload and annotate almost anything in seconds.

Cons

  • Teams is basic right now; looking forward to more permissions and team folders
  • Love the insert image, but would like to be able to make my own library of images
  • Needs rotate when uploading from my iPhone - they're sideways right now

Return on Investment

  • Productivity - Save at least 30 mins per day per employee
  • Organization - No more hunting through emails finding content I sent to someone
  • Communication - My clients better understand our suggested properties when I add annotations.
