Online Review & Approval Tool for Film Professionals

[Tobias Straka]

I'm looking for a way to better work with clients. What I'd love to have is a way to upload a video so that clients can watch it, add timecode-based comments (in a way that they don't have to write down the timecode), save those comments to come back to later. Maybe even add media like pictures, videos or audio notes. Email notifications are a must, maybe with a text message alert. So really, a great collaboration software for film professionals.

I've tried Sorenson Media's 360, which is fine, but the commenting is very basic.
I did have a quick look at Fuze, but I'm not convinced.
Shotgun sure is nice, but I'm not sure it's suited for smaller businesses.

So does anyone have alternatives you can recommend or have you worked with either of the tools mentioned above?

Ha, you're right, totally forgot about that one... Any others?

Are you talking about short form (spots) or long form (an hour or more)?

Commercials and stuff like that and everything up to 15 minutes right now...
