Templater Reviews
"Creative Superpower"
Overall: Templater has saved me so much time while still allowing me to deliver volumes of content for my clients. Dataclay's support team is knowledgable and responsive when I've had questions, and I couldn't imagine creating the content I do without Templater in my pipeline.
Pros: Templater gives you the ability to create content at scale. I am able to build templates, and then render en mass from a spreadsheet. Working this way has saved me so much time, while still delivering high volumes of assets for clients.
Cons: Templater has a little bit of a learning curve in order to get up to speed and understand all that it can do. Once you learn how to set up, and rig your projects, and how to properly label your Google Sheet columns, you'll be off and running. Their documentation is helpful, and they also have great video resources on their YouTube page.
