What do you like best about globaledit?

Globaledit has been a great tool to utilize, as a retoucher it allows my team and I to work seamlessly with our remote counterparts – creative and art directors across the country are able to easily make selects and leave notes in any format that are all immediately available on our end. It's an intuitive, easy to use software with a responsive client solutions team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about globaledit?

Not necessarily a downside, but one area of opportunity would be the ability to download raw files with layered markups – being able to download raw images straight from globaledit has been a game changer and added efficiency to our workflow, so much so I'd love to take it a step further and be able to download the markups right along with those raw files which isn't currently possible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is globaledit solving and how is that benefiting you?

Globaledit has helped cut down on our file retrieval + download time as retouchers massively, we're able to go into the software and download raw files directly - which has been a nice addition to efficiency. It's incredibly nice to have downloads + reviews + final image delivery all contained within one place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about globaledit?

I really like using the Markups where I can choose to select a portion of the image and write a comment. I also like uploading updates as a version that stacks on top of the original file to easily compare before/after. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about globaledit?

What I dislike about globaledit is the cost and charges for storage space. Every version of a file uses up more storage space. We end up having to go back and delete original files in order to save storage space to reduce costs. There is not a way to batch delete original assets either, so it becomes time consuming to do this. I do not like the glitches that have come with the functions of the import bot color and label automations and not having a way to batch change those import bot color tags and labels when needed. I also do not like that I cannot batch rename files in globaledit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is globaledit solving and how is that benefiting you?

Having a safe and reliable online space for our image assets where anyone anywhere who we want to have access to our files can have access to our files. Retouchers and Art Directors can markup files for requested corrections and upload updates as a new versions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about globaledit?

What I enjoy the most is its capacity to organize & visually / quickly see the assets I need or am looking for. I also really like how quickly I can sign in with my Google account. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about globaledit?

I think the download times can be much faster and have a more visible download button available. Lastly, I would say that the upload process should be streamlined without needing a USB or drive, and simply house the assets like a cloud would, but again I'm not aware if this process is exclusive to my company or GE. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is globaledit solving and how is that benefiting you?

For the most part, once the assets are live & approved for usage, I have no issues downloading what I need when I need them, however my team who actually uploads the assets says its takes time for the uploads to take place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about globaledit?

The simplicity on the workflow helps. it has been a bit of improvement over previous versions of the software, personally I liked better the desktop version of the program. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about globaledit?

Notes for review are still very clunky. It feels like dealing with a early windows based program, the logic of creating first the note and then assigning the reference visually is not user friendly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is globaledit solving and how is that benefiting you?

Just the workflow that goes from photo studio down the pipeline for retouchers to fix items is good, just the way to mark and make notes is very clunky and sometimes you get annoyed Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about globaledit?

As a photographer, the platform has given me back complete control of my digital workflow while at the same time, providing service to my commercial and celebrity clients. Instead of sending costly drives and loosing my creative voice and control of selects and proofs, I can still create with my clients without compromising the integrity of my work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about globaledit?

Every software is a work in progress that needs continual development and improvement. The team at Global Edit are hands on collaborating with their users getting real life feedback and gaining massive improvements as a result. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is globaledit solving and how is that benefiting you?

GE is a godsend for talent approvals, collaborative feedback on stills and video projects clientside. And on the backend I'm able to control and collaborate directly with my studio manager, digital tech and retouching lab. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about globaledit?

I like when it works! I like when I can get the correct hires images to our vendors efficiently and smoothly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about globaledit?

A lot of times it is hard to locate the hires images I need - the search sometimes does not work but if I try again it will fix itself. I also have an issue with sharing to vendors - I should be able to share collections with them but I have to contact tech support occasionally to fix this issue. This holds up production and is something I want to eliminate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is globaledit solving and how is that benefiting you?

I use GE to send hires images safely to vendor to us in physical prints for the stores. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about globaledit?

I have enjoyed my experience working with GE. The platform provides an easy way for a high-growth scaling organization to manage all imagery and easily communicate with one another. The platform is intuitive and allows new users to get onboarded quickly. As a Director of Marketing, I love how the platform will enable me to create albums and photo groups so I can better plan my content strategy! Highly recommend! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about globaledit?

There isn't much that I do not like about Globaledit! For my use as a marketer, I think the platform functions very well. As of now I do not have any recommendations to improve the platform for my needs! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is globaledit solving and how is that benefiting you?

Globaledit is solving the problem surrounding photo management and a scaling business. There are a number of key stakeholders that need to be involved in the content planning process. GE allows us to efficiently streamline communication on key photos within campaigns. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about globaledit?

Globaledit has been a great tool for my approval workflow. It is user-friendly and easy to navigate. The markup tool is a fast way to provide feedback to my team and clients. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about globaledit?

Globaledit is a little slow when downloading images. The markup tool can sometimes be a little buggy, but it's not a significant issue. Keyboard short cuts would be great to have when switching between markup tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Providing markups and feedback to my team and vendors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about globaledit?

What I like most about GlobalEdit/what I use the most is the markups tool. It's so helpful to be able to draw and type markups onto an image and be able to view an image with and without those markups. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about globaledit?

I recently tried using the GlobalEdit Photoshop Plug-in tool and was disappointed that every action had to be done to images individually, not in batches. It's not an efficient workflow for me, and I can't continue to use the plug-in as it is now. I'm looking forward to seeing what upgrades there are for the plug-in in the future.

What problems is globaledit solving and how is that benefiting you?

GlobalEdit is solving our post-production selects process as well as asset review/image feedback process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about globaledit?

The tool is intuitive and connects cross-functional teams seamlessly. The platform allows the teams to add assets at the time of shoot and work through edits and reviews. Additionally, collections allow us to share final edits to marketing and other cross-functional teams easily that increases visibility and transparency for the look and feel for a given season. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about globaledit?

Would love the ability to download reporting that tracks user activity, capacity/storage (how close are we to our max amount of storage?), and ability to create groups of users that can be leveraged to share collections. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is globaledit solving and how is that benefiting you?

Prior to GE, assets were saved on the server, and it was difficult to find particular images or videos. Now, not only can we see all the photography flowing through for a given season, we can create collections and contact sheets that we can share internally or key vendors to prep for upcoming seasons.
