GoVisually is great tool that fills a unique space
Verified reviewer
- Our marketing design team produces a lot of collateral, most of which are exported in PDF format
- GoVisually was the best and one of the only tools of its kind that both supports PDFs and allows you to annotate them (Wake allows PDF uploads which can be commented on, but doesn't support annotations)
- The annotation tool set is simple, but it includes everything that most users will need, and our broader marketing and sales team was able to use it day one with few hiccups
- As great as the PDF support is, it comes with a cost
- When PDFs are uploaded they're rendered as images
- This is fine in my cases, but our content team has expressed their annoyance at being able to use the browser's find text feature (ctrl + F) to location specific text in a layout
- It would be great if GoVisually rendered PDFs without the conversion to images
- The other issues we've had are due to organization, but the developers have stated that they're working on one of them
- The first is project organization
- Currently, projects of simply displayed in a single list and there's no way to sort or group them into sections
- We have 100+ projects easily, and it's struggle to find the right project at times (we don't want to lose the information from old projects and there's no archive and retrieve system that would reduce this burden)
- Adding a search function would make things a tad easier, but it's not available yet
- GoVisually has stated that they're working on an organization system for projects and I'll be excited to see that
- I don't know if the developers have one available, but a public roadmap for the tool would be great so users can see the features they're working on
- Trello does a fantastic job of this, and even use Trello boards to collect user feature requests

GoVisually is EXACTLY what we needed for proofing print jobs with our clients
Overall I'm very very happy. I haven't found anything that fits our needs so perfectly. Even though there are a few things I would change, I don't see us leaving GoVisually anytime soon. It is a great product and we're very happy!
- The thing I like the most about GoVisually is that we have one central location where we communicate with our clients (or internally) about a project
- They are able to leave comments directly on the file, marking it up and pointing to specific spots, which gives us clear communication so we all know exactly what we're talking about
- I love that it keeps track of previous versions and comments so we have a record of our discussion and all revisions that took place along the way
- We shopped around for software that would allows us to easily proof and revise PDFs for our print shop and allow our clients to markup those PDFs to make any revisions/comments/etc
- GoVisually easily won out over all the other options we found
- 1
- I would like GoVisually to be a bit more customizable when it comes to organization of projects
- Not every company works with the same workflow, and I'd love to have more control over how I want it to work for me
- For example, I would love it if I could set it to automatically connect to a specific slack channel when a new project is created (so I don't have to do it manually)
- 2
- I would reaaallly love it if we had an internal communication option and an external communication option so I can send a proof to my project manager first, have internal comments, and then send it to our client without the client seeing our internal discussion
- 3
- I would also really love it if we could turn off notifications for our clients so we can control when they get notified about an updated proof being uploaded
- Typically I will upload a proof for our project manager to review first, and then we want to send it to the client after we internally review it
- But most of the time the client gets notified as soon as I upload anything, and it makes that internal review process more difficult
- 4
- Finally, I would LOOVE to have comments made in GoVisually automatically be available to be seen directly in Adobe InDesign (kind of like Adobe's own share & review)
Why they chose it
"It had the best options for marking up a PDF. Plus, it integrates with Slack and Zapier, which are two of our primary softwares."

Not the Best
It's ok. It's a replacement to ProofMe but not as good, unfortunately.
- Allows us to proof in one place
- That's really about it
- Not user friendly
- Scrolling is off, no option to highlight text, no notifications if a questions is asked to someone specifically and have to have an account to proof

Awesome software for creative & design team seeking client approval
Verified reviewer
- Very easy to use, requires minimal training for your team
- Clients can access the portal to review and approve proofs using a free account
- Full audit trails are visible for each document uploaded which allows you to track the status of any design
- Not a lot
- The only feature I would like added is the ability to add a white-label domain and branding to the portal
Why they chose it
"Value for money, and great customer service support from AJ!"

Great Review Platform for Video and Static for Smaller Agency
We went from Vimeo to this and it was a great improvement while still paying the exact same. Great for us, and a better experience for our clients.
- The price to feature is perfect
- We are a smaller agency with fewer clients
- Don't need anything super fancy, so this fits our needs perfectly
- A great toolset for adding comments and leaving notes
- We use it mostly for videos and it's been great
- Have had some comments from people that they couldn't get projects to load
- Also, the mobile app is very behind and needs work, but on desktop, it works great
Switched From
Needed something with more features and better manage assets.

Streamlined our review process!
Saves us lots of time giving written feedback on creative projects!
Cost effective and intuitive to use, really important given multiple teams needed to learn how to use the product
- Easier to use for video content, still creative with multiple frames (e
- g
- carousels) are harder to review at once
Why they chose it
"Cheaper and had better functionality when exporting comments"

Just What I Was Looking For
Verified reviewer
- The product is really easy to use and it makes receiving and discussing design amendments so much more productive
- Clients really like it and being able to comment directly on the area being discussed cuts out any miscommunication RE: revisions needed and speeds up the whole process
- I haven't found anything I don't like about it so far

Great Customer Support for a well thought and designed product!
My overall experience has been great so far and I am looking forward to continue using the tool!!!
- I love the customer support of the company
- They are responsible, responsive and almost instant with their responses
- As an academician, I work a lot with content dedicated for kids
- Supervising on my team's lesson plans and other teaching material, which involves a lot of designing, demands lot of reviews and multiple levels of changes
- I used GoVisually trial product and it eased my process of supervision to the greatest level
- Simple and brilliant features like comments over the area of changes, helped my team understand the corrections much quicker
The pricing could have been a little more affordable and a detailed demonstration of the use of product should have been available on a public forum like YouTube

Never a glitch with GoVisually!
Verified reviewer
- For as long as I have been using GoVisually, I have always had ease in making edits and passing along information through the system to others
- The comments tool works perfectly for what we are trying to accomplish
It would be nice if this system was paired with other CRM systems to they could speak to each other across the board
