MarkUp.io from Ceros allows users to collaborate directly on videos, websites, PDFs, and images, with visual feedback.
We use Vimeo for hosting videos on our portfolio page, and for that, Vimeo is superior. However for multiple stakeholders reviewing a video to give notes, frame.io seemed to be superior and more intuitive.
Frame.io is better when being compared to the google drive as a platform just because of the usability. Frame.io has a more simple design format, that makes organizing projects and file structures much more readily available when doing a quick search. The ability to review and …
We previously used Wipster to edit our films but switched to Frame.io when we needed a more robust system that allowed for user permissions, more types of edits (text & drawing), and an archive option for finished films. We are a year into the switch and are happy with the …
Frame is easily the most efficient video review service of the options i've tried. Wipster is a close second, followed by Vimeo. Trello is listed only b/c it can be tailored for whatever need you have - though I recognize it isn't a true video review system. Wipster's drawbacks …
We used to use Dropbox as our main point of uploading and holding videos, but it was such a hassle because our edits came separately. It was almost just used as storage, and we had to have a separate email(s) with all of the edits coming from different departments. With …
I last used Wipster around 4-5 months ago, but I felt downtrodden by both their business practices and interface. Wipster sprung a new pricing model on users. This pricing model made no sense, was extremely pricey for no reason, and felt like a punch in the gut by a new and …
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
By far Frame is the best video review service out there mainly due to how easy it is to introduce to new users, including on the client side. There is not much instruction required in order to share and edit with a client and ask them to start providing feedback - the system is designed to invite users to give notes and that alone is worth the money.
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
Frame.io easily collects edits submitted by internal or external team members.
Frame.io allows our internal team to keep track of edits on films and have internal communication regarding edits and still keep everything within the platform.
Frame.io allows our links to films to be tracked and expire if need be.
The upload speeds to frame and from Frame to Vimeo or Dropbox are fast!
There have been a couple of times that the review links I have sent have not worked, and it crashed sitewide. I think Frame.io is still working out some kinks, but when I have a tight deadline it's frustrating getting blamed for a broken link when it's Frame.io's website having a meltdown.
I would like to be able to export all the timecoded edits directly to my timeline instead of having to reference the website or extension in Premiere. There may already be a way to have this done, but I haven't seen it or it hasn't been properly explained.
It's a mild inconvenience to automatically be signed up to get an email for every single edit that has taken place in my video. I know this is a reach, but there isn't much to complain about when it comes to Frame.io. I had to manually go in and opt out of the hundreds of emails I was getting sent for someone just leaving comments on my upload.
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.
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
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.

Frame.io has cut review time in half for us. When compared to the olden days of email threads for video review, I'll never want to go back. This is a huge time saver.
Frame.io gives a high sense of professionalism. I've had multiple clients express their delight with the application. It helps our feedback process, but also keeps our clients happy.
