Opus●Guide Reviews

Opus Guide is simple to use and shows a lot of potential for creating SOPs. I appreciate having the ability to annonate further with the recent addition of Annotely which provides a rich set of options. I also love that I am able to share this as an interactive guide, a PDF, and a Word Doc.

However, one critical aspect that requires serious attention is the inability to edit the original arrows in each step. This means that if you want to change the arrow design or size, be able to move, or even delete it, you cannot do any of this since it is permanently fixed in each screenshot. For example, I often need to replace the arrow with an oval or rectangular highlight since it often blocks important text that the end user should see. While Annotely allows you to add new annotations and adjust them separately in the screenshot, it cannot adjust or remove the original arrows which is a huge limitation.

While the founder has indicated that he may consider leaving each recorded screenshot without an arrow as a workaround and then require us to add it in manually using Annotely, this is not a good alternative as it forces us to retrace each step afterward in order to locate where to place each annotation on our own. This can be a big hassle if you have a large number of steps in each SOP. The best way to address this, as another user mentioned, is to add a toggle option for each generated step/screenshot that will allow us to either keep the original arrow or exclude it. This way, if we decide to exclude the arrow, we can easily replace it with a different type of annotation through Annotely.

Additionally, the tool still does not allow you to merge newly recorded steps with a previous guide. While you can manually add new steps to a guide, the lack of merging means you have to manually record each screenshot and save it as a separate file. You then have to upload each screenshot file to a new step in the guide before manually adding the arrows on each step as well. Unfortunately, you cannot use the extension for any guide updates since it won't allow you to merge any newly recorded steps with a previous guide. This manual process can be quite tedious if you have a large number of new steps to add. The alternative to all this is to essentially rerecord the entire guide from beginning to end which still feels quite unnecessary for a dedicated tool like this. Therefore, being able to merge newly recorded steps with a previous guide is an essential feature that is needed for updating SOPs.

Once these necessary improvements are made, I am happy to revise my review and give this a full 5 tacos.

Opus Guide has completely transformed the way we handle documentation and process management. Here's why I'm so impressed with this software:

Streamlined Process Documentation:
Opus Guide makes it incredibly easy to document our business processes. Whether it's creating standard operating procedures (SOPs), onboarding materials for new hires, or training guides, this tool has it all. The ability to generate comprehensive instructions and process flows in minutes has been a game-changer for us.

Multiple Creation Options:
One of the standout features of Opus Guide is the flexibility it offers in creating documentation. You can choose to record yourself walking through the workflow using the Chrome extension, let GPT's AI write the instructions for you, or build instructions manually via the browser-based app. This versatility ensures that we can create content in the most efficient way possible, tailored to our specific needs.

Effortless Editing and Management:
Managing and editing instructions and process flows is a breeze with Opus Guide. The intuitive interface allows for quick updates and modifications, ensuring that our documentation is always up-to-date and accurate. Linked files and screenshots enhance clarity and provide additional context, making the guides even more useful.

Time-Saving and Efficient:
Before using Opus Guide, we used to spend hours each week manually creating and updating our SOPs and training materials. Now, those tasks take a fraction of the time, allowing us to focus on more critical aspects of our business. The auto-generation feature is particularly impressive, as it cuts down on repetitive tasks and ensures consistency across our documentation.

Enhanced Onboarding and Training:
Onboarding new employees used to be a lengthy and sometimes confusing process. With Opus Guide, we've streamlined this process significantly. New hires now have access to clear, well-structured guides that help them get up to speed quickly and efficiently. This has improved their confidence and productivity from day one.

In summary, Opus Guide has revolutionized the way we document and manage our business processes. It's a powerful, user-friendly tool that has saved us time, increased our efficiency, and improved our overall workflow. I highly recommend Opus Guide to any business or organization looking to enhance their documentation and training efforts.
