My proofing needs are fairly simple. GoVisually is the lightweight and intuitive solution that I was looking for. The visual interface is nice, and it handles large PDFs with great speed. Brining clients and other users into the fold is easy too. Just enter their email and they're automatically in... no heavy account setup. And the customer service team has always been very personal and responsive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It could benefit from greater settings customization, such as the ability to set your own global defaults or adding agency-specific disclaimers to the approval dialog. The app's e-mail notifications could use some refinement as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
GoVisually is very simple and easy to use. I love that because many of my clients are not computer savvy at all. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
GoVisually would like you to add revisions to the same proof, and for most users in the design world, that would be fine. However, many of my users are bad with tech, so having a secondary tab for different revisions is a bit too much. I always end up creating a second post to stay clear of the clutter. I also wish I could archive past projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I LOVE the fact that my clients are able to leave comments/notes directly on the proof. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I love it all, I'm still getting accustomed to the compare option so I don't use it as much, I'm not sure if my clients are using the feature. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
GoVisually is extremely easy to use for both our internal team as well as our clients. It has created a more reliable proofing system for our team and clients. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There is no way to set up "sub-groups" or projects within projects, so it does make it a bit less organized than I would hope for. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The ability easily to add multiliple versions of artwork is a game changer. That funstionality paired with the fact that reviews are unlimited and free is a HUGE reason why GoViually is the best solution for creative proofing & approval. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The notification system is really frustraiting/overwhelming:
• The browser will not show reviews or updates in real time. It makes you refresh the page constantly to check proofing progess... or check email. But if i wanted to spend my day checking emails, i wouldnt need GV. I would simply proof via email.
• Instead of seeing edits in real time, GoVisually opts to emailing you about every edit this is made. This is overwhelming and has discouraged our proofers form using the software becuase they areleady have a full inbox before you add the GV updates.
• We seem to need a better system for notifying that proofs/revisions are ready to look at. As I said before, seeing edits pop up in real time, maybe an optional notification chime, would make this already incredible tool even more useful. An optional desktop notification app would be great. something that chimes with a link where notifications could stack up and be removed as work is reviewed... just a thought.
Rush proofing deadines:
• As it stands, you can only set 'tomorrow' as the soonest due date available.
• There should be a Rush Proof function that prioritizes a project above the rest for a reviewer and encourages for same day/immediate response.
Missing Approver Group Functionality:
• One key feature that is missing is the ability to create approver groups.
• For example, in many instances I need to send art to the same 4 proofers.
• Once they all approve, it move up to my creative director(s).
• Form there it goes to the execuvtive office.
It seems like the ability to group the indeviduals into proofing groups would save tons of time instead of having to remember every single email address and hope they are typed correctly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I really like being able to see all of our previous designs and the ability to make comments easily. I also like being able to attach images to comments - it really helps clarify design ideas and streamlines communication. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I don't know if this is something to do with GoVisually, or the company I'm working with that uses it, but some of the products on it look a little "cartoony." I would like to see what designs look like on the actual shirts instead of an "illustrated" version of the shirts/products. Something I wasn't sure about at the beginning was how the "Needs Review" / "Needs Changes" / "Approved" / "Finalized" works - if finalized projects could still be changed, and if the labels even mattered, but the more I've used it the more familiar I've become. I don't even remeber if there was a tutorial the first time I logged in, but that may be something. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
GoVisually makes it really easy for us to share website design and copy with our clients. It allows for direct feedback on screenshots that otherwise would get lost in communication if handled strictly by email. We have, and will, use GoVisually permanently.

The only thing I can think of is sometimes the link breaks when you go to share, but just be cognizant and make sure you click "Get shareable link." Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
