Needs some work
I've been looking for an annotation tool to make sharing website feedback with my clients easier, so I jumped on Beep and gave it a spin.
*Pros*
- Very fast to get up and running
- Intuitive interface, easy to use
- Simple sharing and commenting
- Useful views (boards, single etc)
- Good commenting
- Handy statuses
*Cons*
- Not easy to copy link for sharing from dashboard (have to right click on "Open" and copy link). Copy link just copies link to original page.
- Can't edit Profile name, picture or username
- Would like the ability to circle, highlight or markup content, as well as placing markers
- Can't rename projects (I named my first project the wrong thing, can't edit it)
- Hard to know where markers will end up on screenshot >> sometimes they obscure details (imprecise locating)
- "Open all" and "Share" buttons in floating widget don't do anything except change colour (in both Brave and Opera, couldn't get annotating to work at all in Chrome, probably a conflict with other essential extensions I have installed for work)
- Each annotation is a different screenshot >> not ideal when marking up a single page more than once
- Would like to be able to change/add statuses e.g. approved, waiting
- Logged out of my personal account, app got very confused, unable to log into (paid) business account
A good tool for simple markups, but not really suitable for my purposes.

May 9, 2024Hi Nikki!🙂
Thank you for your feedback and listing the pros. Some of your cons are true, but many we have already solved:
- Copy link feature now copies the link to the beep, insead of the url where it was made (Please try now 🙂)
- To rename project pls click on the project name on the dashboard and it will be editable
- Open all and Share buttons open a page where you see all of the comments from this page in a single document, like this: https://share.justbeepit.com/screenshot/636e7242c4743d0016835d25?commentid=652811d857a27400188ac044
Most likely it didn't work because of conflict with other extension. Try to install Beep on a new chrome profile, it should work.
- You can change status of each task to done, in progress, or complete. Or do you mean you would like to customize them? If so, we have this under development.
- Annotating directly on the screenshot is under development and is coming soon.
If you need assistance we can schedule a short call and I will make sure to fix any issues you encounter. You can also email me at farid@justbeepit.com🙂
