Lytho Reviews & Product Details

I appreciate Lytho's intuitive user interface, which is crucial in making navigation simple and effective. The ability to customize with custom views, reports, and review routes is particularly valuable, allowing me to tailor the software to the specific needs of our business. This customizability significantly enhances our workflow by ensuring that the right individuals can review and approve projects, which saves us a lot of time and provides us with accurate information. I find Lytho instrumental in organizing our proofing process for creative assets and keeping all projects well organized, which is essential for managing multiple deliverables across product packaging, materials, and campaigns. The platform has eliminated the chaos of paperwork and excessive email exchanges, essentially streamlining our review process and ensuring we have a record of proper approvals before publishing, which boosts our operational efficiency. Moreover, the onboarding specialist and regular meetings made the initial setup quite easy, allowing us to get up and running quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would like the review environment in Lytho to allow me to reference my original notes and the original request submitted. This would ensure that the final output matches what was initially asked for. Although I appreciate the updates and changes being made, this feature is not yet available, and having it would improve the review process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The team is so great to work with! We have recently been reworking our forms and they have been amazing, helpful, speedy and patient with the process. I gave them a direction, they set up a meeting with me to talk about what we are aiming for, made helpful suggestions and finished within 2 days (even though they said it would take 8 business days). Once they created everything, I realized it wouldn't quite help our clients so I asked if we can review it all again and they were super patient and worked with me to do just that!

We've worked with Lytho for about 5 yrs now and we have a lot of archived projects now. It's becoming difficult to searched for those past projects and wish there was more of a filter search function. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use Lytho Workflow to streamline the review of our creative assets and Lytho DAM to manage our images, videos, and brand assets. Workflow allows us to get efficient feedback on creative assets and keeps feedback organized. Lytho is easy to use, almost anyone can figure it out without training. The integration with Adobe products makes creative design work easier. We switched to Lytho DAM because it allows us to seamlessly upload and download approved assets in Lytho Workflow, and it's more cost-effective. The initial setup was very easy and we had excellent customer service. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have no dislikes to share. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really appreciate Lytho's very easy-to-use interface, which makes organization a breeze. Task assignments are extremely helpful for seeing where projects are in their development life cycle and who is responsible for what. The proof review system is fantastic for collecting feedback on digital assets. It's also very helpful that the Digital Asset Management (DAM) is integrated with Workflow, allowing deliverables to be exchanged easily without having to upload things multiple times. Additionally, Lytho's team has been very helpful and diligent with onboarding us onto various products like Tempo, Workflow, and the DAM. Lytho's responsive team and customization capabilities really made it stand out to us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would love to see more integrations of Lytho with other services. It's very helpful how the DAM is integrated with Workflow, and deliverables can easily be exchanged between the two without having to upload things multiple times. Photoshop integration would be great, as well as enhanced support for HTML assets. It would be great to be able to upload an HTML file to a proof as opposed to screenshotting it.

I like the ability to set statuses in Lytho and the timer feature when I'm working on tasks. I can set a status on a project myself or change it if I feel that I'm done with it already. For the timer feature, I like that I can turn it on to track how long it takes me to do a project. It does a great job at organizing projects and keeping them in a workflow so I don't have to think about who to send things to. It was really easy to understand for me when I first got here.

The only thing I don't like is that when you put something into a proof, the default is for a dark screen. This makes for a difficult user experience for people reviewing proofs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I appreciate most about Lytho is the transparency it provides to our clients throughout every stage of their submission. It also offers a single platform for both our clients and our team, making sure everyone stays aligned. Additionally, I have to mention how impressive the metrics are that I can generate for leadership—they truly stand out! Lastly, customer support is always quick to respond.

Unfortunately, it often takes quite a while for the updates we need to be implemented in Lytho. Our requests are added to a wish list, and unless many customers want the same feature, it can take months for any changes to actually happen—if they happen at all. I also wish there were more flexibility for customers to modify certain features, like the approval statuses for proofs, since the current options can't be edited.

I love using Lytho to house all SME feedback. No more chasing down emails, Teams messages, etc. All feedback is housed in one location. Love the deadlines we can set up for each step of the process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't care for the new review layout. All comments showing up on the right-hand side is confusing, harder to keep track of where I am at. Also noticing that sometimes if I click on a comment it's not jumping me to that page/location like it should. Also, when submitting a review it's really annoying that I have to make sure I select "all assets" or whatever it is since we mostly work in multiple-page documents. Also having to hit "submit" multiple times is annoying and when introducing new users they typically forget to hit "submit" that last time so then their review isn't complete and I have to ask them about it. Do not like that you are unable to edit a review route after it has started, that has caused some hiccups for us. I also think that collaboration after return should ALWAYS be on.

I really appreciate the creative layout of Lytho; it’s a creative project management software, and its design reflects that creativity. It's easy to navigate, which simplifies managing tasks and projects effectively. What I love most is having everything associated with a project in one place. This centralization is incredibly beneficial as it ensures that all teams, including marketing, sales, designers, LP&E, and digital departments, can view and understand the project's status by looking at the tasks. Everyone can easily access their assets and working files, making collaboration seamless. Additionally, it’s advantageous to look back at previous years and see the work we've accomplished, aiding in both evaluation and planning. Working with the Lytho team for future ideas and trainings has also been great, providing ongoing support and development. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I think the review dashboard has improved but still causes confusion because it doesn't link to the project request form, Stakeholders sometimes have no idea what review is associated to what project. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use Lytho to manage creative projects for our brands and it makes managing projects simple across multiple brands and a team of creatives. I love that the review process is so easily customized with who reviews the assets and in what order and who is needed to approve. With so many marketers, it can be difficult to get the correct people to sign off. Setting up tiers of reviewers and saying how many of them need to approve makes it much simpler. The tool sends notifications automatically and you can also remind manually, meaning everyone added to a review process knows when a project is ready to be reviewed. The support team at Lytho does the heavy lifting for you and from there you have access to make any changes or customizations that make sense for your team. The support team is always happy to jump on a call and work through things. You always have a dedicated customer success manager and they have a helpdesk. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Lytho search is not good, it is the only feature that is really lacking. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

An approachable interface that puts at the center of the experience what most (of our) DAM users spend 99% of their time doing: searching for, selecting, downloading and sharing assets. We provide access to employees and customers alike, and no-one has ever come back saying they don't understand how it works.

Search and AI search are powerful—I don't even bother with our company's internal shared drives anymore if I know (or suspect) the asset is on DAM.

Solid breadth of functionality for administrators, too. Here's a quick selection:

• Tags, tag categories, tag translations, and the ability to create tag menus;

• Custom metadata fields;

• User roles and groups, with role, group and user-level Permissions control;

• Asset collections: organized bundles of assets for easy sharing;

• Asset versioning;

• Approval workflows;

• Custom image presets: upload one source image (e.g. .png 3000x3000), and allow users to select from the original or pre-determined file type/dimension combinations (e.g. .jpeg 1000x1000).

Most importantly, it's fast. The interface reacts very quickly when searching and filtering—doing anything, really.

Starting with using Lytho DAM is a breeze as well. Lytho has a strong onboarding program for administrators, with several sessions over the course of several weeks. Every session gives you some homework that essentially guides you in preparing the DAM for use in your organization (think tag taxonomy and permission structures, for example).

For users, the tool is rather intuitive. However, I would advise to devise your own training program. First, ease-of-use is highly dependent on your tag taxonomy and tagging diligence (although the powerful search function often makes up for any lacking in those areas).

Second, precisely because the platform is so powerful, it helps teaching people the ins and outs of the various ways of searching: "fuzzy search", tag search, tag selection from a menu, and that you can make any combination of these. Many people limit themselves to just using the search bar with "fuzzy" search only. In my experience, teaching them the full gamut in search functionality gives users a huge boost in efficiency and precision. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Literally nothing to complain about.

It might be due to the relatively low complexity of our asset "ecosystem" (although I have no benchmarks), but I never find myself missing any functionality. Everything that I might need as an administrator ánd user is there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
