What is Filestage?
Filestage is the review and approval platform that frees teams from chaotic approval processes, making work more joyful and productive.
From large enterprises to independent agencies, Filestage helps teams share, discuss, and approve all their files, all in one place – including documents, images, videos, websites, and audio files.
Today, some of the world’s best brands and agencies get their work approved with Filestage, including AB Inbev, LG, Havas, GroupM, and Emirates.
If you create TV ads or social media content, you’ll love Filestage’s video review software. You can upload a video to share it with clients. Then your stakeholders can tap anywhere on the video to pause it and add a comment. So instead of juggling timecodes and long descriptions over email, you can see the whole review and approval process in one place.
Filestage helps with approval management too. Instead of chasing people over email and managing approvals in a spreadsheet, you can see the status of all your files at a glance. And with automated reminders to nudge people for approval, you can make sure projects are delivered on time, every time.

I'm using Filestage on my daily basis to collaborate with my customers. It´s so easy to use and you don't need to give your partner more than a link to share the actual version of the project – you can save all the time you wasted with sending mails to anyone involved in the project!
very clear and good customer service made in Germany
fast integration of complex film projects and fast easy communication with the customers. Shortening the correction time
Customers do not have to register anywhere to make corrections.
Access to all important system settings
user-friendly and modern interface
Customers are happy ;)
Fast and efficient error correction. clear communication between service provider and customer.
Good overview also for non-computer talented
every correction step is exactly predictable
**Simply the best feedback tool for audio-visual group projects. ** I highly recommend to any Team handeling film projects over long-, or short distances. You can mark any spot in a frame and leave a comment. You may also draw scetches into frames to further illustrate corrections for your team mates. Shared project work over any distance has never been so easy! Can't imagine any future projects without filestages assistance. Thanks!
Reviewing images, videos, documents and even sound is a complicated process. Very often, you get feedback through just talking on the telephone or writing an e-mail with complicated references about where the annotation belongs to. Filestage makes the process of reviewing simple for both sides and makes sure nothing is left and nobody can say "but I also told you to change that" three weeks later, as it provides a very good version managment and logging.

What I dislike:
We got hooked on filestage right with the first project. Using it for almost all correction rounds now. The main benefit is the simplicity of working with it - especially when giving the link of a file to a customer. There is no need for him to sign up, which makes it really easy to use. Even non-digitial natives find it very easy to submit feedback via filestage.
Also, the usability and the user experience is great. Its actually fun to work with, even considering it is about something as tough as dealing with corrections of customers. Everything is beeing kept clear and manageable. Its great that with one click you can look back on previously approved versions, especially if you get the feeling, you are going circles regarding the customer feedback.
We also love how we can handle nearly every kind of file. However, It kinda reaches its limit when handling really big pdfs (more than 200 pages), since people are going to download the pdf and will make their comments there, instead of in filestage. But that is something that we are more than willing to accept. By now we also use filestage a lot just internally, since the handy To-Do feature makes everything very clear and traceable.
It's so easy to keep for everyone to keep track about document status, everyone is on the same page and the review process in the team and with customers is a breeze. Great team, great product.
