Slope Reviews

The best thing about Slope is that each process is super stream-lined, so even those not directly involved in the creative process can give their feedback through the platform, thus eliminating back and forth emails where details and crit would often slip through for larger projects.

At times the e-mail notifications for Slope will not give complete details, so it's much easier to keep the program open when checking notifications.

Communication and a stream-lined creative process--previously it was hard for us to 1 keep track of project processes and 2 have everyone involved in the project able to leave their crit in a space where everyone else can see their commentary. Slope provides us with a platform to keep track of everything for every project, and to even see where each person is in the process.

Slope makes collaborating on video creation and production a snap. Time stamping videos with comments that can be "threaded" is an incredible feature and downloading final video files is as easy as literally clicking a button.

There's not a lot to complain about! Sometimes my notifications don't seem to clear, and it might cause confusion about what videos have yet to be addressed. But it hasn't created any issues for me.

If you feel overwhelmed, disorganized, and bogged down with your media projects, Slope will help streamline your responsibilities and make it effortless to collaborate with others.

As someone who works in digital marketing, video content is where engagement is at right now. We've constantly got videos coming in for social campaigns, events highlights, recruitment efforts, etc. Having all these assets in one place where our entire team can access, provide input, and discuss creative direction in real time is invaluable.

Not completely reliable - still find bugs

Try it!

organization and management of who owns what. helps keeping our design team on task

Below are the best features of Slope:

-being able to leave feedback and have a time stamp associated with it

-having all comments on the right and being able to reply to comments as an admin

-having all feedback in one software, easy to read and follow and everyone can see the feedback

-versioning which allows to show the progression and history of a video project

For what we use it for there's nothing I dislike about the software. It works!

Slope offers a free trial just like any other software company. If you need to review video or creative assets within a team and stakeholders, this is a great tool.

We're centralizing all the feedback and versions of our video projects from initial rough cut all the way to final version.

Simple to use and the Slope team is always working hard and staying in contact with their users to make it even better.

Needs a customizable form to set up creative briefs

This is a great tool. Its simple to use and easy to teach to others. Also, the customer service is great and they are always looking to make it better.

It previews don't work well outside of using chrome as the browser.

1 Versioning eliminates the need for a kajillion Basecamp tasks.

2 The ability to comment directly on graphic design is so key. Before we had to call meetings to review.

3 Comments stick with the content versions, they don't disappear like with Google Docs.

The way the titles are displayed sometimes makes it hard to tell different tasks apart. Little UI issues like that.

Realize that not everyone needs to be someone you pay for -- the reviewers don't cost anything.

Saving a ton of time.

Not losing track of things like I did in Basecamp.

Happier colleagues because we're more on the same page.

Ease of multiple project scope and accessibility, makes communication with a team of any size 1000% more efficient.

No dedicated app yet. UI is a bit clunky and there is work to be done in the realm of notifications and alerts.

Try it out. There might be some adjustments to workflow but the end game is a pretty fluid system in which projects and tasks rarely, if ever, fall through the cracks.

Easy to field and implement feedback, really awesome tool to keep track of projects at a particular time in its lifespan and refer back retroactively.

Stage tracker, version control, proofing

I wish there were integrations with slack and box.

Content production is streamlined and organized. Reduces the headache of keeping track of multiple versions of content, leaving feedback, and keeping track of deliverables. All team members are accountable, approval is easy to request and give, and it's easy to see when each deliverable is due. Slope keeps the team on track, organized, saves us time, and keeps all our content projects in a central place (instead of being scattered all over in email, google docs, vimeo, slack, box, dropbox, etc.

We've used Slope to support our increased output of storytelling videos around our projects and programs. It is ideal for ensuring that multiple stakeholders get a chance to review and comment on the content. It is also a quickly evolving platform. Each time we wish for a new feature it is added.

As with any new platform, driving adoption among individuals who aren't creating or reviewing content regularly need to remember how to login and use it.

We have many stakeholders across the organization and coordinating reviews, especially with video, was a hassle. Slope created a central location and process for reviewing.

Being able to share a project with health care companies knowing it's a secure platform is a huge sell for us.

We do a bunch of multimedia projects and at the current moment Slope isn't the best way for us to share galleries of images or batches of design files. Great for video but not great for photography.

We're able to onboard new clients and get immediate feedback through Slope which has reduced our administrative costs over the short amount of time that we've been on the platform. Plus, every client has their own digital delivery system and instead of them needing to learn a whole complex application, we can get a client up and running within a day and our clients have really appreciated having a central place for them to collect feedback.
