### "Integration with other technology would be helpful"

December 21, 2018

3.0

We predominantly use Admation as a central storehouse for creative assets and approvals. It's a great tool for basic project management, although I feel like it's capable of more. This could just be a limitation because we have one main administrator. Ideally we would use this program for full project management beyond just the creative component. I'd also like to see other program integration (specifically Google applications like Calendar and tasks) for a more seamless work flow.

Pros

I like having all the creative assets in one place

Cons

Slow; can't operate in multiple tabs in Chrome; doesn't integrate with calendar.

Hi Bronwyn, Thanks for taking the time to review the platform! We really appreciate your feedback. If you'd like to integrate admation with your device's calendar, you can subscribe via your admation account. Just head to Your Name > Settings > Admation Calendar Subscription > Instructions for information on how to achieve this! We hope this helps you out. I'll definitely pass your requests onto the team for review. Thanks again for stopping by! Best wishes, Samantha

### "My review"

September 16, 2019

2.0

Pros

Uploading PDF content is generally fast.

Cons

The functionality is awful. The user interface isn't intuitive or logical in its layout. I'm a designer and I set-up the initial upload of all projects I'm working on that need internal review. I've done this several times but I often fumble through the process with each new upload. Having to allocate Administrators and select project types more than once is frustrating and confusing. I'm never certain if an upload has happened successfully (especially when uploading a new version of the same project) and need to go check with a colleague as to whether they got the email stating the project was now online.

### "Admation is a beta test right now"

January 18, 2017

1.0

We use Admation for an advertising agency, and times and worktasks in our place of work change rapidly, I don't think Admation has the versatility to change as fast as the work does.

Pros

It does give some organization to work tasks

Cons

It's not intuitive, It doesn't morph, it doesn't reflect after hours,

Hi Ines, We have recently made a number of improvements to admation's resource management module, including tracking time, setting work hours for staff, tracking holiday leave and out of office days. It would be great to hear whether these changes have improved your experience with admation? I'd love to hear from you. Many thanks, Jodie

December 17, 2018

I'd rather not use it

Pros

Seeing a full list of projects, their start and end times.

Cons

It adds more steps to the process of sending and receiving creative, and I often get error messages.

### "Does what it says on the tin, but UX & workflow has a long way to go"

December 17, 2018

3.0

Frustrating, but necessary

Pros

Helps co-ordinate our interactions with the agency, exchange assets and review work

Cons

Very unintuitive, the UX has a long way to go and this is a considerable hurdle to adoption.

### "Good tracking system for groups"

December 18, 2018

4.0

Pros

It has all of the functionality we need. Our team is able to find everything for a project in one place.

Cons

My biggest gripe is that I cannot send a follow up message to someone who hasn't yet responded. I find myself copying the message into a new message. A much less big deal is that I wish I could start typing a name into a new message "to:" field & have the system find the person for me. I email the same few people regularly, and it can be slow to open the contacts list, navigate to the proper group, and scroll down to select a name.

Hi Diane, Thanks for taking the time to review admation! Glad to hear that you're enjoying all the functionality offered by the platform. It sounds like you could really benefit from using our "Remind All" function to send a manual reminder out to users who haven't responded to your artwork's feedback request. Please don't hesitate to email our support team for more information on how to achieve this. In the meantime, I'll note down your suggestions for the messaging function. I'll pass these on to the UX team for review! Thanks and Happy Productivity! Samantha

### "Not Very Intuitive"

September 10, 2019

2.0

Hard to use and navigate. Clunky

Pros

It tracks the approval process and it stores your approver lists so you can reuse them

Cons

I keep getting the ladybug message that kicks me out and I have to restart. It is not an easy process to follow and getting feedback is often hard to find where to download it. Have not enjoyed using this system at all.

Hi Yvette, Thanks for taking the time to review our platform. We're sorry to hear about this experience with us. I agree that the 'bug' message can be troublesome. We've already structured a few internal conversations around how we can improve this for our end-users. I'll also have a chat to our UX team about improving access to feedback in the system. It would be interesting to see where you're getting this bug message. If you have a spare moment, we'd love for you to send a request through to support for review. We look forward to hearing from you. Best wishes, Samantha

January 12, 2017

3.0

Pretty good overall, not great. Would like to see a UI uplift - looking very dated. Would like to see improved search functionality

Pros

easy access to assets.

Cons

Not easy to view jobs by different designers. UI looks very dated (uplift was promised when we purchased). Mobile experience needed.

### "Great Experience using Admation"

January 7, 2019

5.0

Ultimately, Admation has really helping me in crushing some of the complexity in my role.

Pros

Once you understand what Admation can do, I love how easy it is to submit, review and categorise different projects. Especially when you have multiple projects on the go, the way Admation allows you to organise everything makes everything so much easier.

Cons

At first it was a little bit overwhelming due to all of the options, particularly when reviewing multiple items but after using it for a couple of days it became second nature.

December 17, 2018

3.0

Pros

Using admation for BAU things like marking up proofs - not sure what other functions & features admation has but this is my primary use.

Cons

Marks ups are not live, meaning other teams cannot see marks up until it is locked.

Hi Amanda, Thanks so much for your feedback! Based on your comments, I think you might benefit from using our @tagging feature! Next time you're writing an annotation or comment on artwork, type @ then add the name of the user you're wishing to include on the comment. Then click Save. This will send a notification to that user, with a link to look at your comment, even before you approve or request changes on an item. Let me know how this works for you! Best wishes, Samantha

### "Fantastic for project managers"

December 26, 2018

4.0

Pros

It’s easy to track how much time team member spends on client’s projects. Makes pricing and managing workloads a breeze.

Cons

Login with Google Authenticator is annoying, would be great to be able to opt out of this. Would be better if the team members who work on a project can be remembered or “replicated” each time you copy a project.

I realized that document management was easy, however I would expect that has a clear flow about the approvers, even when I'am adding new files (versions). I would like it has a tutorial bout a better usage, It has several tolos, but I don know all.

Pros

I like the visibility to all the projects, I can check the status.

October 3, 2017

3.0

A central/robust repository for sign off

Pros

It has the information contained in 1 spot and is a good model for providing sign off/review for marketing material.

Cons

September 10, 2019

3.0

Working between teams but feel this could be implemented a lot better from our side also. I can see the potential but for what we currently use the platform for, feels hard to use and clunky.

August 5, 2019

3.0

Dislike the UX, the platform also looks quite dated.

Pros

The asset management is good. Like that the platform is quite customisable.

Cons

### "Its ok"

September 27, 2017

3.0

Pros

I like that I can book in resources across different offices., however even this can become confusing as I do not fully understand booking a resource 'fixed' or 'flexible'. I like that I can upload documents and then make revisions to those documents.

Cons

It' clunky. It's not intuitive. Everything seems harder and less efficient than it should be. I don't use the approvals system so cannot comment on that but for resource, it's frustrating that I cannot easily amend projects, can't populate dates easily, can allocate a project to more than one person.

Admation has been great in keeping a paper trail of work being trafficked through the studio. It's generally easy to use, and if I'm unsure how to do something I can usually figure it out pretty quickly.
