Streamlining Creativity: Our Positive Experience with Approval Studio
Approval Studio has proven to be an invaluable asset for our company, specializing in the design of tumblers and laser-engraved products. The platform's intuitive interface and robust features, like real-time collaboration tools and detailed markup options, have significantly streamlined our review and approval processes. This efficiency is especially beneficial in a creative setting where precision and client feedback are pivotal.
The ability to compare different versions of a design side by side, as well as the comprehensive version control, ensures that no detail is overlooked and that all client specifications are meticulously adhered to. The custom notifications and history tracking enhance our project management capabilities, keeping all team members aligned and informed throughout the design process.
Overall, Approval Studio has not only improved our workflow but also elevated the quality of our final products, leading to higher client satisfaction and more streamlined project execution. It’s a must-have tool for any design-oriented business looking to optimize their creative processes and deliver superior results.
At first it seemed confusing, but after taking time to test it, I've found that this software is perfect for my business.
A lot of features that at first I felt I didn't need, but when I started to learn how to use them, I realized that sure I don't really need them, but it does take my current process up to a new level. If my proofing software is leveling up, then so is my customer experience.
I can't recommend this software enough if you are designer that deals with a lot of back and forth adjustments with clients. The interface is smooth, the custom branding, and customizable email send from is awesome, however I don't believe there is a way to create a subdomain for a true white label experience.
The one thing that I would add is a Text button on the tool bar, which currently has drawing and shapes. It's a bit confusing to have to use a drawing tool or a shape to add text to the proof. If there was an icon with a letter T, I would more than likely select that tool, then click anywhere on the screen and start typing my change request or notes. If they add that function, this problem would be perfect.
Another thing to note is the customer service live chat. Not dealing with a bot and having a live person available is awesome, especially in the beginning stages. I LOVE THE SUPPORT and for that reason, I'll give it a 5 Tacos, with the hopes that they create the Text tool and CNAME/SubDomain feature. Cheers!
I not need one code as I either handle the designing myself.
wow! My custom T-shirt design brand is day one easier to consolidate and get feedback from customers when I don’t have free time.
Send the link. Click the button. Simple mode means they just use the pen to outline on the design. And leave a note.
Note becomes a task for me.
Perfect.
Helps me to be able to stay up to track with dozens of people at a time.
Simple. Clean looking.
I will be using this for a while.
Customize emails and button words for emails. Awesome.
Just waiting for smtp emailing to send editor and such.
5 tacoosss no doubt

Thank you for your feedback. Please, contact support to get your SMTP set up. I know you tried to use chat but didn't get a fast answer - all agents were busy. Just email me or the support team, and we will help you to set up your custom email address.
This is one of those rare products that come up on AppSumo where you just know it's going to change how you work.
If you product anything creative for clients (or in house teams presumably) then grab this.
Very simple to upload your visuals and request amends.
The way you access the list of amends probably could be improved (maybe as a check box list or something to support the amends) but that is only a personal suggestion.
This tool will save you hours sifting through emails and trying to create a list of 'amends' especially where you have multiple stakeholders in a project.
Love it. Well done.

awesome product
I chose the basic tier. However, it's not basic at all.
It's amazing. This is due to the many features they've included.
I can allow outside users to upload their images without creating an account.
Their API will enable me to automate this process.
Support is responsive both on Facebook and through site chat.
