### "Lite version – the best choice for freelancers"

May 8, 2019

5.0

For me, as a freelancer, every hour spent on everything except working is losing money. Thus, Approval Studio helps me to decrease these hours to minutes. Clients are satisfied as well because it also saves their time.

Pros

I love that interface and workflow are so friendly that it is impossible to spend much time on something except working on the artwork. Also, you do not need to create an account for your client – just share the link. It greatly saves time, which is crucial for people like me.

Cons

Nothing concrete. Love Approval Studio.

Thank you for your kind words. Lite is indeed the best option for freelancers, as it has all the needed functionality for a small or one-person team at a more reasonable price. We're happy to hear that you enjoy our tool. Have a great one!

### "Best choice for design proofing"

August 22, 2019

5.0

A great tool for image proofing, now our work with images and designs is fully automated and it helps us save a lot of time. The app is a good extension to already existing project management tools, but I hope with time they add new functions that would help it fully replace project management tools.

Pros

A bunch of different possibilities in Compare mode. It’s easy to spot the differences between two versions of the image and track the changes.

Cons

I found a small inconvenience - when there are too many annotations, all comments in the right panel shifted somewhere beyond the screen. Though with the latest release it has been fixed.

### "Great solution for its price"

January 26, 2021

5.0

I did not expect this tool to be so good for its money! There are many great features that really helped us work on design stuff faster. We don't lose feedback and don't have to re-ask people's opinion for thousands of times. Saves my team from lots of headaches.

Pros

The interface is very user-friendly, and it doesn't take much time to learn how to use it. Many supported file formats are also cool.

Cons

We use other project management software for our projects, so it would be awesome to get more integrations so that we could tie things together. Other than that, everything's fine.

### "Simplicity and live approval processes."

May 3, 2019

5.0

Do you know how it is complicated to agree on the design of the simple tea packaging? Nutritionist needs to check information on the box while marketing manager checks appearance. And usually one disagrees with another, and then all PDFs are sent via emails!!! Thank you, Approval Studio, that we can gather all people on one page and come to an agreement in one meeting. You do not even imagine how much time it saves.

Pros

We are glad that clients can just point at the wrong part of the artwork and we see that immediately. No more sending files via emails and no more waiting for client’s responses for days

Cons

Did not find anything.

### "Proofing visuals is not a problem anymore"

February 21, 2020

5.0

Our team often uses visuals for marketing, we have several reviewers for each artwork and it's great to be able to check the files and keep feedback at one place. Email reviews used to take much of our time, now the whole workflow is much easier. And when someone needs to check an image or a document on the go, mobile review tool can really save the day. Helps a lot with urgent projects.

Pros

It has a very simple and user-friendly interface, so it did not take much time for our team to get used to it. The review tool has all the markup we need to proof artworks, and, what's most important to us - make it fast.

Cons

We would like to try video proofing as well. We don't work with videos very often, but it would be nice to have such option. There's none yet, but the devs promise it's coming soon.

It changed our workflow for client projects streamlining the approval process completely.

### "Proofing workflow became simple and much faster"

September 17, 2020

5.0

After a couple of weeks, Approval Studio became an integral part of our workflow. Now we do not need to gather all the comments from every messenger or mailbox. Everything is in one place and any needed person can access it quickly. Now we do not spend several days making decisions.

Pros

As I said to the guys from Approval Studio: I like their efforts and result that they gave us. We optimized our proofing workflow using the review tool with compare modes, reports, PM system, etc. The proofing tool was a must for us, but I thought it is impossible to implement it into our work process. Guys did make it come true!

Cons

We all like the tool. I hope there will be an integration with slack in upcoming releases

### "We forgot about missed deadlines and wasted time"

June 4, 2021

5.0

We improved our artwork and video approval process. The software helped us to forget about missed deadlines or bad communication. Now the team has much better progress with our work.

Pros

The favorite things are the review tool and proof report. The first one has many additional features like compare modes, ruller, and etc that make our work simpler. The most exciting thing that we are using all of those. Also, we love the support team that helps us whenever we ask.

Cons

Nothing really, everything works as we expected.

### "Lovely software with extensive functionality"

April 28, 2022

5.0

Pros

Approval Studio is filled with valuable features that helped us organize and approve our projects. The timeline section helped our team keep track of the workload. Compare modes made our approval process a piece of cake

Cons

Nothing critical, but I would love to see more integrations in the future (Google Drive, for example) as it would make file sharing faster.

Thank you for this positive review. We're working on expanding our integrations list (for example, official Zapier integration is coming soon), and hopefully, they will be useful to your team!

### "Approval Studio is the solution"

March 25, 2020

5.0

I'm really enjoying using this platform. I can create mock-ups fast enough or I'd use it more often.

Pros

I love that I have all my versions, comments and approvals in one place! No more trying to find that comment to make a change or who said it. Approval Studio makes it all seamless. It's a designers dream come true!

Cons

I wish the Slack integration did more; specifically I wish it send the link with an image to the project that is being requested to review.
