### "A Great Client Brand Dashboard Solution"

September 13, 2023

5.0

It was simple to use right from login

Pros

It's simplicity and easy setup. Not having to explain to a client how to access their files makes all the difference.

Cons

Haven't found a negative as of yet, but hopeful I won't find any worth mentioning!

### "Great Potential if Devs"

October 23, 2023

4.0

International file management will become easier for people who find it difficult to adapt to unfamiliar user interfaces. Some of the primary functions of the software is not what I expected - I may downgrade my plan because of this. Deskfirst has incredible potential - hopefully the Devs balance with a capable business development manager.

Pros

Exceptionally easy to use, smooth and familiar.

Cons

No white labelling and CName.Confusing team roles (the fact that your team cannot create their own private desktops and utilize the storage on your plan may cause buyers to misunderstand what they are actually getting)Currently not many file types can be edited within the Deskfirst interface.

### "Deskfirst is an exceptional tool for organizing and sharing files"

November 6, 2023

5.0

I'm loving the tool. Branding customization is something that greatly enhances the service provided

Pros

Deskfirst is an easy and intuitive tool, it doesn't require any training or configuration to start using.

Cons

As the Deskfirst roadmap still has a lot of functionality being created, I hope that previews of more file types will be inserted into the tool.

Google Drive is very good for sharing spreadsheets. But for visual identity control, photos of events and media for social networks it is not practical.

### "Fast, fun and easy to use"

September 12, 2023

5.0

It was super easy to use and set up my desktops in a matter of minutes.

Pros

I'm using Desktop as a solopreneur to create a visual space for various projects....Once I started, I kept coming up with more ideas.For quite some time, I've been hunting for a great bookmarking software that had a visual appeal....so this also worked out perfectly to include needed web links for each project.

Cons

I want to be able to create some permanent sharing links instead of expiring ones. At this time, I'm not yet able to do that. Perhaps they will add this feature.

Reason for choosing Deskfirst

I chose Deskfirst over other popular storage options hosted online because of the visual appeal. I love that I can quickly upload, store files, share files, and organize my content just as I would on my laptop. When I get a new computer in the future, I'll be able to access these desktops quickly online. The visual appeal had a big draw for me.

It was super simple to get started and takes little to no effort to immediately find the value in this product.

Pros

This platform solves a fundamental but essential part of our communication workflow with clients by allowing us to share and collaborate on ideas.

Cons

I look forward to having the ability to create subfolders or organize boards more easily.

### "Such a simple but yet clever idea"

September 26, 2023

4.0

Easy to implement, quick to describe it to your team. The branding is added in a few seconds. One of the quickest accessible SaaS I have ever used and promote to my team.

Pros

The easy access to a simple environment which mimics the "real" Desktop of my Computer online – it is so easy to access and implement, that one wonders, why it didn't happen earlier. The simplicity is the best feature of Deskfirst.

Cons

The very confusing price model makes it hard to logically follow the connection between the users x desktops x storage. But based on the exchange with the founders, they are working on it.

### "Seriously, where has this tool been all my life?"

September 7, 2023

5.0

Honestly? I've loved using Deskfirst. It's made remote collaboration simpler, and I've definitely noticed an uptick in my productivity. Now, it seems like an old friend, a tool I wouldn't want to give up. If you're in the hunt for a straightforward, collaborative space that's not just secure but enjoyable to use, then I'd recommend giving Deskfirst a go.

Pros

Deskfirst just clicked with me right away. It wasn't like the other platforms, like Google Drive or Dropbox, which I used to find a bit all over the place. It's got this cool desktop interface that feels soothingly familiar. It's neat, and intuitive and it’s made structuring my workflow effortless.The feature that wowed me? The option to put shortcuts of my Google Sheets on the desktop. It's magic! Instead of wading through an endless grid of files in Sheets, my important documents are right there on my desktop, a single click away!

Cons

It's hard to find much to gripe about, but if I had to suggest an enhancement, it'd probably be this - an advanced search feature that can filter deeper into document contents, not just filenames.

### "If you understand desktops, you get Deskfirst"

September 19, 2023

4.0

So far so good, as I got it to easily transfer info and files to and from my clients.

Pros

It does what it says it does, and it's simple, clear and customizable. Super easy to setup and install.

Cons

I hate that I cannot duplicate desktops. I also wish I could have one URL that is on my domain instead of Deskfirst.

### "I didn’t know I needed it until I saw it :-)"

October 9, 2023

4.0

Liked it from the moment I read about it and then - from the moment I installed it.

Pros

The fact that I can put online thousands of important documents that I need in our everyday work, and have them accessible from all over the world - and all they can be kept up to date and modified by my other team members.

Cons

I think I’d be happy to have more visualization options than the simple desktop, but for now that will do well for us too.

### "A Great Collaborative Tool"

September 21, 2023

4.0

So, far it is has been great, easy, and fun to use!

Pros

I am working on my dissertation, and this is a great tool to collaborate with my chair. Uploading documents is easy, and aesthetically, viewing them is helpful rather than just having them on a regular drive. Changing the background quickness of uploading documents, I have encountered no issues.

Cons

Not cons, but feedback on future features I would like to see. Changing the color of folders, adding tags, to-do list, kanban board, etc.

Propably just not being able to add my own background for the desktop but that's very minimal
