Director/Producer Motion Pictures and Film Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Perfetly Solves My Problem" October 12, 2020 5.0 As a small production company in a rural I need to hire talent and crew that don't always have representation or a formal business. Legally I need to hire them as employees and I had no idea how to hire someone as an employee on such a short term basis until I found out about Wrapbook. Pros I like the my employees and contractors can fill out thier own info and I dont need to babysit. Cons The typefaces for the UI are too thin, not very legible. Sometimes I create a project that never happens, it'd be nice to be able to delete or archive my projects. Review Source Response from Wrapbook October 19, 2020 Great news! Wrapbook has updated its typefacse and weighted fonts for a more eligible reading experience. Additionally, Wrapbook has also updated the location of project archives and renamed the concept "wrapping"; this can be found in the project setting. Thanks for the feedback! TR Taylor R. Producer Motion Pictures and Film Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Wrapbook Review" September 15, 2020 5.0 Pros Wrapbook has streamlined our payroll process, easing up many of the labor intensive parts of pre-production and wrap. Instead of wrangling huge amounts of paperwork from cast and crew, Wrapbook simplifies everything and allows most of it to be done from your phone. Especially in the age of Covid-19, this is a huge benefit. Additionally, \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] and the Wrapbook team are top notch on the customer service front which makes every job with them go incredibly smoothly. The platform is intuitive, the crews all seem to like it and the production companies enjoy the typically lower fees and excellent customer service. Cons Fully digital payroll process may take some getting used to for some crew members Review Source KT Kathleen T. Producer Motion Pictures and Film Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Great Customer Service and Easy Use of Product" January 27, 2022 5.0 \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] and \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] were both super helpful and informative when setting my business up with short-term insurance and payroll services. They were super responsive and quick to help with the smallest of questions. The use of Wrapbook and it's insurance certificate program is so simple to use and makes our lives a whole lot easier. Pros So easy and easy to use to get what you need done fast. Cons Nothing yet! It has been a seamless experience so far. Reason for choosing Wrapbook Wrapbook allows us to digitalize our payroll. Less paperwork and our team can input their times worked quickly and easily. Once they are setup, we don't have to do the same paperwork over and over again. Review Source AR Aubree R. Production Supervisor Photography Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Wrapbook" January 4, 2022 5.0 Best experience from the software itself to the customer service. Pros Wrapbook is user friendly. It is so easy for crew to log on and upload all of their payroll forms and time cards. On the administrative end, it is very easy to track the status of crew who have uploaded or need to upload. It has cut our time spent doing payroll in half. Once someone is uploaded, they don't need to upload again as you do with other programs. Such a great product overall, and the customer service is quick and friendly. Cons No cons about this software. No complaints! Review Source EL Elli L. Producer Entertainment Used the software for: 2+ years ### "\[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] is amazing! " January 14, 2022 5.0 I am Wrapbook's number one fan for life. Pros The customer service with Wrapbook is always above and beyond, but \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] was helpful, communicative, and friendly! If only all the insurances of my life could have been this easy to set up and use! Cons I have no issues yet. I will let you know if and when I do. Review Source SC Sam C. CEO Entertainment Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Highly Recommend!" October 7, 2020 5.0 I have really enjoyed our experience with Wrapbook thus far! Pros The Wrapbook makes it very easy to process payroll at a competitive price. It also allows a safe and clean way to distribute timecards and paperwork without the need for printed paper / distribution of pens. Cons I wish there was a way to upload documents (NDAs, Releases, etc.) for every individual on a project to fill out. Review Source Response from Wrapbook October 15, 2020 Sam, thanks so much for the review. I have great news. We actually JUST launched a totally digital start-work digital signature solution to Wrapbook and you can literally use it - starting now. I will have a team member reach out to you to turn it on for you. LEH Leif Erik H. Executive Producer Media Production Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Perfect Tool for the Year of AB-5 & COVID-19" October 14, 2020 5.0 It's been so easy and seamless, both from the employer side and from the employee side. Crew members are constantly telling us they wished more companies used Wrapbook. Pros The software is incredibly easy to use, which was perfect for our small production company as we had to transition into paying crew members as employees under AB-5. Cons The user interface can be a little unintuitive at spots, but that's been improving over time. Reason for choosing Wrapbook Topsheet is more expensive and they seemed a little janky. Wrapbook also took the time to call me and walk me through the product before purchasing. Review Source CG Christopher G. Client Services Manager Media Production Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Ease of Use" October 2, 2020 5.0 I love this product. This has helped so much, especially because I don't come from a payroll back round. Payroll somehow got dumped on me, and I'm glad I found Wrapbook. Pros I love how easy it is to use, it wont let you go on until you complete things properly. Cons I wish it would have an easier way to convert time. Review Source SW Scott W. Producer Motion Pictures and Film Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Can't Work Without It" September 22, 2020 5.0 Fantastic. Literally a lifesaver and can't do work in this age of TV/Film/Commercials/Music Videos without it. Pros Wrapbook makes all of my payroll and insurance needs super easy to manage. I work freelance and have tons of different contractors come through on projects. Wrapbook allows me to take care of them all with no problems. Cons Would like a slightly easier way to add existing employees to project. Drag and drop maybe? Review Source Adriana S. Producer Entertainment Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Great interface good service - it’s my go yo payroll sw " October 2, 2020 5.0 Pros Ease of use, and to set up. That wrapbook sends the tax paperwork directly to the employees and we don’t need to deal with that. That there are multiple checkpoints to pass before approval to send money to employees. That we can connect to our bank account directly. Cons We can’t pay LLC’s anymore. I can’t see the employees experience. Makes it hard to explain when they’re confused. They get confused about which project to select sometimes so must be their interface that could be more clear? Review Source JF Jenny F. Producer Entertainment Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Wonderful Customer Service" February 18, 2022 5.0 Pros \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] was extremely helpful. He went out of his way to get us setup asap. Cons None that we've experienced so far but we will let you know. Review Source PZ PETER Z. President Photography Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Full-Featured, Scalable, Affordable Solution to Payroll " March 13, 2021 5.0 Great company. Genuinely interested in providing a turnkey solution to production payroll. With new laws and regulations, I decided to take on a greater role in handling payroll and payments in general. Wrapbook, I feel, is the best company to use, due to the ease and speed at which the process can be completed -- and the very reasonable costs. Pros Ease of onboarding, simple user interface, quick and efficient customer service. You get all of the power and service of a huge payroll company at an unbelievably low cost -- and very personalized attention. I had a small concern with a task that needed to be done when setting up each production (since I am a commercial photographer, I have LOTS of short productions and it was a hassle to have my regular crew verify/input the same tax info repeatedly) and when I emailed my concern, Wrapbook literally changed the system to facilitate this concern. That has NEVER happened with any other company which I've used. Cons The only cons I experienced (having some initial difficulties navigating the process since I had never before done payroll) were a result of me being too busy to accept to introduction & personalized walkthrough that was offered to me. So, let them walk you through the process once or twice and you will avoid the small bumps that I endured as a result of not taking the time. Reason for choosing Wrapbook I read some reviews that compared the various products/services available to production payroll. They consistently praised Wrapbook for the same reasons I stated earlier. Although I did not try any other services, I feel 100% satisfied in my choice to select Wrapbook to support my day-to-day needs of expediting payroll, quickly issuing workers comp coverage, calculating taxes, etc., that need to be paid, etc. Very, very pleased with Wrapbook and I wouldn't change to another service even if it was offered to me for free. Review Source SO Stanley O. Head of Production Media Production Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "I'd be lost without wrapbook" September 15, 2020 5.0 I love it, and I'm not even considering looking elsewhere. I run a business, and I don't have time to get in the weeds with stuff like production payroll since I'm staffing up short-term employees for shoots. I'm grateful that this solution is out there to save me so much time. Pros Wrapbook removes the most tedious tasks from production payroll that I used to do in-person such as I-9 and other start paperwork. Then they bring it through to the end by funding payroll, which has become quite confusing since AB5. I love how quickly everyone gets paid, because I can run an actual budget immediately after production. Also, I should mention that they send out a great newsletter with articles that keep me up-to-date on the laws. Cons The branding on the homepage made me slightly question the legitimacy of the company, but once you get in you realize it's solid and well thought through. Alternatives considered [Gusto](https://www.capterra.com/p/131882/Gusto/) Reason for choosing Wrapbook Gusto is not tailored to production. Review Source SP Sage P. Co-Owner / Executive Producer Motion Pictures and Film Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Finally!" January 5, 2021 5.0 Before Wrapbook, it was an absolute headache to onboard employees and get them paid in a timely manner. This software has completely changed the game for us. We're a mom-and-pop production company with only two full-time employees, and so having a payroll partner with an easy-to-use interface for both administration AND our day-playing employees is a tremendous tool. Wrapbook gives us the ability to focus on our roles as producers instead of having juggle also being accountants. Since using Wrapbook, I haven't had a single on-boarded employee express confusion about the process, which was always the case with our previous payroll partner. Pros Very intuitive UI, seamless automatic withdrawal and deposit for payments, easy access to all financial records, reliable customer service, quick and easy on-boarding, comprehensive WC. Cons Would like to be able to use on jobs involving local labor-unions, especially SAG. Reason for choosing Wrapbook As far as I'm concerned, Wrapbook is the only option in the game for our type of business. Review Source ME Max E. Filmmaker Motion Pictures and Film Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Great Customer Service " December 31, 2021 5.0 As a small business owner of a video production company, I was looking for insurance solutions. While all the nuance of insuring productions can seem daunting to someone mainly versed in the creative side of productions, our insurance broker, \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\], was a dream to work with. He took the time to answer or find out the answers to our questions. And he did so in a patient and informative way that alleviated our stress in partnering with an insurance company. We initially started with a project-based, short-term policy, but after our experience with \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\], my company moved to an annual policy when it came time to insure an additional project. And throughout that process, he continued to patiently work with me and my team to answer any questions we had and he was incredibly responsive in doing so. Working with \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] has been one of the best customer experiences I've had in an era when so many of these interactions are impersonal and/or incredibly frustrating. He is an exemplar of customer service and I hope Wrapbook recognizes him as such. Pros I use Wrapbook for insurance purposes, so I typically only interact with the software to issue insurance certificates every few weeks - however, that experience has been seamless so far. The true highlight of my experience with Wrapbook was the customer experience, please see my review below. Cons No complaints, however I am not an active user of the software. Review Source JR John R. Owner Media Production Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Backstory Review of Wrapbook" September 18, 2020 4.0 Amazing. Responsive, cost effective and time saver! Crew love it too. Pros I love the integration of I9's and W4's so that we have no physical paperwork to worry about on set. We can keep everything in the cloud, on board with ease and save production time every shoot. we make commercials and with 1-3 day shoots - the volume of paperwork we used to do was way too high. Cons I wish the software had more ability to customize the guaranteed hours in a day and set the OT rates custom. For example, an 8 hour day or 14 hour day base rate and then changing at what point the OT turns to 1.5, 2, 3x or more. I have had jobs where we budget for a different amount of hours than standard off the bat and need the flexibility. I also am still awaiting the feature of adding a coordinator to being someone who can sign and authorize I9s. Review Source Tim F. Executive Producer Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Fast, easy, and less expensive than others" November 17, 2020 5.0 Pros The best part about Wrapbook is the price. While other payroll companies charge 3-5%, Wrapbook charge between .75% and 1.5%. With AB5 and Dynamex making payroll necessary for even the smallest shoots, it's fantastic to have an option that helps minimize my P&W from upwards of 25% to closer to 20. Plus, it's fast and easy. I hate paper timecards - especially needing someone to hand them out and collect them in the era of COVID. Doing it online means I'm not chasing down paper copies all day (/week, /month) and can wrap jobs faster. Cons There are a few aspects that don't feel entirely intuitive, although they are doable. However, crewmembers have expressed confusion over how to add kit fees or gear rentals. It's not hard once you learn how to do it, you just have to learn how to do it. Having said that, the customer support is so good that it's never been a real issue. Review Source KM Kutlwano M. IT Technician Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Wrapbook, the perfect tool that helps save time and money." February 11, 2021 4.0 For me as an IT Technician since I have been using wrapbook, I have not yet had any delays or confusion in my payments. Everything is fine at the moment. Pros The software is easy to use, it is also not difficult to learn and familiarize yourself with it. No delays or confusion in the withdrawal and deposit of payments. Cons The ease of time conversion on the software. Switched from [Paycom](https://www.capterra.com/p/130949/Paycom/) Paycom is expensive and not easy to use. Review Source Jordy W. President Media Production Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Excellent Service, Personal Support" September 16, 2020 5.0 Pros What's great about Wrapbook is the intuitive design, backed by personal support from a great team. They are also great at staying up to date with the ever-changing landscape of production payroll and adapt quickly as needed. Cons I'm looking forward to a seamless mobile experience. Review Source Martin R. Senior Producer Media Production Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "A much easier way to do payroll" October 24, 2020 5.0 It's been a blessing to change over to Wrapbook for our payroll services, and we can't wait to roll it out over the next year on larger productions Pros The ease of running payroll, and managing any ongoing projects. We are used to setting people up with paper payroll (or PDFs of the documents), which becomes wonky and requires lots of time for both the employer and employee. With Wrapbook we've been able to send out invites to the crew members easily, and they have it all filled out within minutes. Cons I wish there were ways to implement NDAs and other documents into the docs-sign feature, rather than having to send that separately. Would also be great to have some color coding within the platform to speed up some processes for new users Review Source LR Lisa R. Agency Owner Entertainment Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Difficult and Time Consuming for those who have talent who need to get paid" March 4, 2021 1.0 I just did, above. Pros YOU do not see all sides when you created this product. Cons This software, compared with Extreme Reach, Team etc.. is too demanding and it continually overrides the agent's ability to control the payment destination. Time after time I have had payments go to my talent instead of my agency. In the end I stopped using a vendor because they used this software. I mainly dislike it because they require the actual talent to sign off on where the check goes, with the agency having no override on this decision. When an agent doesn't get paid directly, there's always a chance a talent may not ever send the commission. No commission means no payment. The talent should not be involved in this payment process, it is between the booked parties, that's it. Review Source MP Molly P. Production Manager Media Production Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Makes Payroll as Painless as Possible!" September 22, 2020 5.0 Pros The user interface on the freelancer side AND my side is super simple, clear and straightforward Cons I don't have any problems with Wrapbook so far Review Source SP SCOTT P. Exec Producer Photography Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Simplifies payroll" November 17, 2020 5.0 We have had an excellent experience with Wrapbook. This platform totally changes the payroll game, from a cumbersome analog process to an extremely user friendly all online system. Pros Ease of use. Allows me to pay my crews quicker. Cons Can't think of anything. The software has made processing payroll much much easier for our organization. Review Source GA Giovanni A. Producer Entertainment Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "First-Time Filmmaking Accounting Made Easy!" December 8, 2020 5.0 I think the most beneficial product feature is the customer service. Accounting for filmmakers can be tricky because often you're dealing with unions. It was helpful that the support team at Wrapbook was so familiar with union rules, and that that support was made available to us when we needed it. Pros As a first-time filmmaker, I found the platform incredibly intuitive, from the initial setup to managing our small cast and crew. With restrictions on in person interactions, due to Covid-19, it was crucial that our accounting software prove easy to navigate. Cons Honestly, Wrapbook has met all the accounting needs of our production, surpassing expectations. Reason for choosing Wrapbook We specifically were looking for software with a track record in film accounting. Review Source DR David R. Producer Media Production Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Great Solution" January 5, 2021 5.0 Wrapbook has been a great solution to our payroll needs. Pros This software is easy to set up and use. The customer service is excellent. Cons I'd like to prefill timecards before their due date. Reason for choosing Wrapbook Much easier to use as Wrapbook is web based with a superior user interface. Review Source Similar Products Featured
