Senior Project Manager Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Perfect for our marketing agency needs" January 27, 2023 5.0 very good, the company is VERY responsive to questions and needs. Pros anyone with an iPhone can be a filmer very easily, no - little training required. the software mitigates shooting in the wrong format, and makes sure you know what shots should look like all within the app. Unlimited filmers means you can deploy 100's of people. Cons need more editing features and ability to move clips from project to project. Would like to be able to capture photos too. Reason for choosing Cinebody Needed to capture content from 1500 events throughout the year in various locations while keeping costs low. Review Source Response from Cinebody January 30, 2024 Hi Summer, Thanks so much for the kind words & feedback. We're glad the software is helping your agency! We've been considering editing workflow features, and have moving clips on the roadmap. We got a TON of feedback from users wanting Photo capture, so we recently built and released that feature for both iOS native and web capture/upload. JAO Julie Anne O. Director of Communications Biotechnology Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Cinebody is great to work with" November 26, 2024 5.0 Effective video is an essential part of our marketing strategy. Cinebody is a cost-effective way to make professional videos. The editing/producing staff is extremely responsive, does an excellent job of staying in touch with the customer and making sure nothing falls through the cracks. The technical team works hard to figure out any glitches or anomalies. I highly recommend Cinebody for your video needs. Pros Cinebody's platform makes it super-easy to set up a video shoot literally anywhere in the world and get broadcast-quality results. We made several short marketing videos, including testimonials from our target audience, which we are using to build brand awareness. Cons We did have some glitches with the technology. Our person in the field was unable to get their iPhone to connect with the Cinebody platform. But the workaround was easy and we were able to complete the interviews and upload them later.

December 10, 2024 5.0 Pros Staff is responsive and flexible. The work is high quality! Cons We went through many rounds of edits which was time consuming. Review Source DY Doreen Y. Communications Manager International Trade and Development Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great low-cost film solution" November 28, 2024 5.0 Working with Cinebody overall has been great. Pros Cinebody has helped us create impactful films that demonstrate the real-life impact of our work. Our strategic producer is a pleasure to work with and Cinebody's \[sensitive content hidden\] are also very hands on and care about customer success. Cons The software doesn't allow an easy way to do a mass delete of clips. Review Source JF John F. Learning & Development Specialist Retail Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Don't bother with looking anywhere else. This is your partner! " March 3, 2022 5.0 I'm in the business of Customer service and can tell you that \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] and his team blew me away. What we produced in the craziest time frame was mind blowing to me. When I though that we were about to launch and meet the deadline, something on our end came up and in my mind we would be thrown off by a couple days. Nope! \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] kinda refused to accept that we were gonna miss the deadline. Neither a weekend nor time of day seemed to be a factor. Whelp, we met the deadline. Oh and by the way, we basically did this in less than 10 ten days, which is unheard of! From the stores all the way to the stake holders in the company, the response was phenomenal! Pros Ease of use, and can make anyone look like a pro. Cons In all complete and upfront honesty, I cannot think of anything I disliked. Reason for choosing Cinebody All honesty, cost wasn't what sold us. \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] presentation and willingness to answer/address any questions/concerns as quickly and effectively ads he did, is why we chose Cinebody. Review Source Response from Cinebody January 30, 2024 Thanks John! This is easily the most glowing review we've gotten! LB Lucas B. Creative Director/Director/Editor Motion Pictures and Film Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Crowd based content capture" January 14, 2022 5.0 At first, I thought of Cinebody as a novelty and didn't have a use for it. But then I had a quick turn project come in with zero budget and required footage from across the USA. Cinebody was the perfect solution and was easy and cost effective to implement. Since then, I have used it countless times and during the pandemic, it has been my go to software for capturing authentic content from users. Pros The best part of this software is the ability to utilize the cameras on user's smartphones to capture user generated content anywhere in the world. The shot list makes it easy for average users to understand the direction for each shot and ensure they properly capture each shot. Cons The software is currently only for iOS, but there are work arounds for android users. I would also like a "download all footage" feature. Review Source Response from Cinebody January 30, 2024 Hi Lucas! Thanks for the kind words. Regarding a download all feature - we recently implemented a list view feature for admins to easier sort, filter, download, and send clips in bulk (including all clips in your project). Take it for a spin and let us know what you think! DM Dan M. Sr. Manager Commercial Strategy & Operations Pharmaceuticals Used the software for: 2+ years ### "BMS Coast 2 Coast 4 Cancer" December 13, 2021 5.0 I've work on two project with the Cinebody team and have had amazing experiences with both Cinebody teams. Not only are they beyond accommodating, they also have the video creativity to suggest what will make for great videos. All finished videos of our projects have captured everything we would have hoped for and even more. It such a pleasure to work with Cinebody! Pros The software is easy to install on your phone which makes it easy for our users. Since it's app based, users have the ability to capture videos anytime since everyone always has their phones with them. Cons Although I hear it's in the new release, having the ability to capture photos will be an added bonus to the software. Review Source PM Paul M. Creative Director Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Game changing option to have in our production quiver. " December 9, 2021 5.0 First and foremost they are great people. Amazing partners. And they created a product that fills a gap in our need for this type of production. They're on time. On budget. Every time. Pros I love when we have a project that is perfect for a Cinebody execution. The software, app, the team, the support and the final product are invaluable to us. Cons The only thing I can think of is that, at least in the past, it was a little clunky for those not on iPhone. But i know the team has put a lot of work toward addressing this - maybe even have solved it by now. Review Source TB Travis B. Video Director Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "If you're not doing using this in some form then you should. " July 28, 2022 5.0 When productions when dark during COVID we were able to bolster sales by producing videos with User Generated Content. When things opened up we found Cinebody to be useful to bolster our high-end content with more day-to-day videos. Pros Accessibility to generate content from multiple viewpoints and sources. Cons It would be really nice to have an android app. The price is a little steep for my clients, however it is really easy to show the value this app provides. Review Source Response from Cinebody January 30, 2024 Thanks for the kind words, Travis! Glad to hear you were able to get creative with the software. We've also recently released native web capture for Android & laptop/desktop. Take it for a spin and let us know what you think! Jaime D. Corporate Communications Manager Higher Education Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "We signed on for another year!" December 2, 2021 5.0 Our Cinebody Producer, Jake was very easy to work with. He guided us along the ins and outs of the program with many examples of how we could get started. He was available whenever we needed. We have had a great experience so far with our projects. Looking forward to using it more. Pros In rural Alberta, Canada, we have great difficulty bringing video crews to our different locations in the region we serve. The ability to create your crew with the participants who are on location was a great value. It saved in production costs and gave the filmers pride to be able to contribute to the project. Cons Not having an Android app option to work with. However, we do have a workaround for that. Review Source Response from Cinebody January 25, 2022 Thanks for the feedback, Jaime. We are actually in the initial planning for an Android app. It's on the docket! BG Brittany G. Sr. Account Executive Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Highly recommended for capturing diverse footage! " January 14, 2022 4.0 When you need to capture interviews or b-roll from engage a wider audience, this is a great platform to use. It allows you to bring more diverse voices and faces to your videos, and gives captures a more real-world perspective. Pros Allows you to capture diverse voices across your organization or customer base without expensive production costs. Remote capture video recording is SO key for Covid times. Cons Additional metadata / ways to sort footage beyond the project and shot list Review Source Response from Cinebody January 30, 2024 Hi Amy! Thanks for the review! We also implemented a list view feature for admins to easier sort, filter, download, and send clips in bulk. Take it for a spin and let us know what you think! RV Richard V. Editor Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Experienced User" January 20, 2022 5.0 Overall a useful tool. Served its purpose for us on multiple projects. Not too many hangups, reliable. Pros I like that it forces spec on the phone, so you're covered if someone forgets to optimize their camera settings for recording. I also like that it takes the guesswork out of offloading for less tech-savvy talent. Cons I dislike the browser UI. Even after using for a while I still find myself clicking around to find something instead of intuitively knowing how to get there, and batch functions are almost non-existent. Why can't we view anything in a list? Or organize into folders? The generated naming conventions for clips are also really weird. Uploads from mobile lag hard if the takes are not super short. When the heck is this thing gonna be available for android?? Also, I gotta say I HATE that it still forces camera orientation for the entire project. Almost every campaign we do has a horizontal AND vertical shot for the same project. Orientation should be PER SHOT like the other settings. Reason for choosing Cinebody see above Review Source Response from Cinebody January 25, 2022 Thanks for the great feedback, Richard. We have it on our roadmap for this year to release a list view for files to make it easier for viewing & downloading, and also have begun initial planning for an Android app. As for setting orientation per shot, we love that idea & my tech team is diving into it now to see how we can implement it. That's a great feature request! SY Sean Y. Visual Designer Environmental Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great app for video compilations" July 19, 2022 5.0 Cinebody was an excellent company to deal with. \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] and his team were hands on, making sure we knew how to deploy the software. They would always check in and let us know of updates, and encouraged us to reach out if we had any campaigns or exciting ideas we wanted to incorporate Cinebody into. Pros The best part of Cinebody is being able to create a project with video standards you define. Once a link is created you can email out the link with simple instructions to using the app and watch the videos roll in. It's great for making compilation videos across a global company like mine. Cons Downloading, reviewing, and accessing the clips can be cumbersome at times. Review Source Response from Cinebody January 30, 2024 Hi Sean! Glad to hear the team is attentive to our standards and that you enjoy the software! One significant update we've made recently that may help: admins are now able to view clips in a list/table view. This allows for bulk sorting, filtering, selecting, and downloading all of your clips in bulk. Take it for a spin and let us know what you think! TS Taylor S. Owner Design Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "An easy to control collaboration " October 24, 2022 5.0 Our overall experience has been great and our edits keep looking better every year with the constant improvements to our phones video quality. Pros I love how this app allows you to direct your team to get the shots you absolutely need, while also leaving room for creative freedom. It's great when you end up with additional unique clips you weren't expecting, it makes your final edit that much better! Cons There has been a couple of people on our teams that didn't use iPhones so they had to use their web browser to upload clips vs downloading the ios app. That being said, the web browser was still very close to the ios app experience and uploading was still a breeze. Review Source Response from Cinebody January 30, 2024 Thanks Taylor! Glad you are enjoying the software! We've recently released more updates to our web capture tech that allows all connected devices with cameras to capture natively (including laptops). Take it for a spin and let us know what you think! CM Colin M. Digital Project Manager Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Digital Project Manager" December 2, 2021 5.0 We are creating videos testimonials with people across the country that otherwise we wouldn't be able to access. We are also cutting down on our hardware costs by utilizing cell phones for video capture. Pros How it allows us to accomplish video projects around the country that are high quality for a reasonable price. Cons The lack of out of the box storage could be improved. Review Source EB Erin B. Owner/executive producer Media Production Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Amazing Technology" March 12, 2022 5.0 I love this platform. It is a good alternative solution to capturing content. You can have people/talent submit video on their own, direct the shooter or crowd source. It also allows you to consider filming all over the world without enduring travel cost. Pros I love that Cinebody is an innovative way of looking at film production. It has alllowed me to complete projects all over the world with ease!! Cons I really don’t have anything to add. I find it very easy to use Review Source Response from Cinebody January 30, 2024 Hi Erin! Thanks so much for the kind words! CG Cameron G. Producer Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Cloud Based Production " January 14, 2022 5.0 Cinebody provides a unique opportunity to create content when traditional production isn't possible or necessary. I love the authentic story telling possibilities of working directly with creators to tell their real stories. Especially during the time of COVID-19, big production crews aren't always the best option for authentic story telling! Cinebody has allowed us to create content with people from all over the world! Pros As a producer, I love the catered, organized experience that Cinebody allows us to give to content creators. Not all content creators are professional filmers. Th Project description and shot list allow us to give more context so they are capturing everything we need for our final deliverable. Cons Currently, I can't wait for Cinebody to integrate the newest filming capabilities of the iPhone 13. I also think a chat feature would be great for easy communication with the content creators working on my projects. Review Source NN Nate N. Global Brand Director Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Collaborate with ease. Produce results that stand out. " January 11, 2022 5.0 Cinebody as a software delivers results that matter, at scale and at pace. All supported by a team that is invested in your business goals and needs, and handle it with care, clarity, and consideration. Pros Remote capture, in real time, using local devices and OS's has revolutionized content capture, speed and delivery for our teams at dentsu. Being able to see in real time, anywhere in the world, what has and hasn't been shot, captured and edited makes production across numerous projects, with parallel delivery timelines seamless. Incredible software, supported by one of the best teams in the business. Cons No real limitations to this software. Once users understand and download, Cinebody becomes an ease to use. Review Source CH Carly H. Social Media Manager Higher Education Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Perfect Way to Capture Authenticity" December 10, 2021 5.0 Overall, I have enjoyed using Cinebody with my team and found it EXTREMELY beneficial during the pandemic to continue creating authentic content that resonated with our audiences. Pros The ability to write out what shot it is that you exactly want and are able to have it organized so you don't have to spend time sifting through 100 videos to find the one you want! Cons At times, it's not the most user friendly software for people who are not the most tech-savvy. There have been instances where I have to jump on a call to explain how it works, how to login to a project or use the camera/view the shots. Review Source Response from Cinebody January 25, 2022 Thanks for the feedback, Carly. We are currently developing chat to launch in the app shortly, which will help with communication issues between you and your non-tech-savvy filmers if they have any issues. LE Lauren E. Media Manager Financial Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Happy customer of three years" July 13, 2022 5.0 Pros Cinebody allows us to easily collaborate with the team remotely across our markets which has helped increase the number of assets while reducing turnaround times. Cons Unfortunately, the app only supports iOS but I understand why. You can still access the browser version from Android which is a happy medium. Review Source Response from Cinebody January 30, 2024 Hi Lauren! Thanks for the kind words (and glad you're using the software globally)! We recently released an updated version of browser capture that allows any connected camera device to capture natively (even laptops/desktop)! Take it for a spin and let us know what you think! JP Joy P. Head of Digital Marketing Law Practice Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Great platform. Great people. Great end result. " December 15, 2021 5.0 Great support and super responsive. Pros It's a simple solution that's helped us create and share video across our whole company. Video isn't easy to do in a corporate environment with strict IT security and governance. This platform helped us overcome that while working with IT to ensure a secure solution. Cons It would be great if the software could also include image sharing and audio file sharing too (I think there might be some plans for this). Review Source Response from Cinebody January 30, 2024 Hi Joy! Great to hear that the software worked well for you! We recently released the ability to capture and upload photos both on web and iOS native. Take it for a spin and let us know what you think! JH John H. Account Lead Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Production in Your Pocket" February 14, 2022 5.0 In the pandemic world, you won't find a better tool to film than Cinebody. Pros \- Easy to develop prompts and weave story together - Initiative, point and shoot filming for participants - Smart technology ensures we get the best footage possible - Real-time support within the app is invaluable Cons \- Compatability challenges with Android users - Would like to see an option for users to upload photos within the app - Sorting and cataloging footage on the back end can be burdensome with a high volume of clips Review Source Response from Cinebody January 30, 2024 Hi John! We got a TON of feedback from users wanting Photo capture, so we recently built and released that feature for both iOS native and web capture/upload.

They're responsive to our needs and committed to seeing us succeed with Cinebody. Pros Cinebody has given us the ability to easily capture employee video all over the world, allowing people to contribute who might otherwise not have the chance. The platform is easy to learn, super flexible, and virtually foolproof because the app gets the format right every time and automatically uploads the footage. Cons Cinebody is in a class by itself. There's nothing else that compares to it, in our experience, so I have no cons to note. Review Source AO Allie O.
