Adbase Reviews
"Abdase user"
Overall: workflow is easy with this program, keeping all staff informed is great with Adbase
Pros: filing and keeping track of work needing to be done and work that is in progress. history of jobs. tracking of jobs.
Cons: having to refresh before typing is the only issue, otherwise when you type sometimes your message disappears. So always refresh before typing a message just incase.
"Awesome software for communication and keeping track of jobs"
Overall: I've enjoyed adbase, its way ahead of email. Once you get the hang of it, its a useful tool to have as long as everyone on your team is onboard with it.
Pros: I like that everyone I work with can be in communication in one place, deadlines for jobs can be tracked easily and your time spent on multiple jobs can be kept accurately and specifically to what your are doing on each job. You can also see if too many hours have been spent on a job and it can be flagged early on in the process. Gone are the days of estimation when sending clients the bill for the job done. fairly large files can be uploaded to a job and you can track versions of the job quickly, neat for when a client would like to take a step back or to cover your arse when things go wrong. A wonderful thing about this is that you can work anywhere as long as you have internet connection and if the job at hand allows you to do so.
Cons: Its nice that you can track time for clients work, but what about the internal players - managers can slip into a habit of micromanaging. It could be a pro for some businesses.
"Adbase needs work."
Overall: Its actually job with staff management, you can see peoples work load and response time and actual times people spend on jobs. Its also helps with briefs, that way problems are easily identified. Whether it is staff or clients. Agencies benefit from it most definitely, AE's can see how their jobs are going and designers can manage their own jobs
Pros: I like that everything is timed and dated, so its easier to go back and see when stuff had been uploaded and when the task had been completed. Give designers ideas of times and timelines, so they can prioritise work and deadline
Cons: 1. People can physically add in time so they can crook the system, not reflecting actual times 2. Often doesnt respond as instant as its supposed to. 3. Have to refresh very often 4. Some messages dont come through and only pop up days later, happened a few times to me and other 5. When refreshing it brings up old messages that have been read already.
"Adbase Review"
Overall: It has been an aplication with an easy learning curve
Pros: Navigation and the way you can add a person to a job so they are able to see the history of the job. it also drastically cuts down emails and the confusion caused
Cons: Reporting is more complexed than I need but some may find it very helpful
"Adbase Review "
Overall: adbase is simple to use, helps with communication between coworkers on a large scale, keeps track of work
Pros: The ease of communicating within the company to a group of colleagues and that you can track back on comments posted previously
Cons: Timing out of the program can be frustrating at times
