About Wipster
Wipster is a cloud-based digital asset publishing and collaboration management solution designed for small agencies, production businesses and freelancers to help manage and speed up review and approval processes for video, audio and document projects. The platform enables content teams, product managers, and other stakeholders to create and collaborate on projects in real time and manage cycles across review, feedback, approvals, analytics, and publishing. Wipster allows businesses to add any numbers of members into project groups and limit comments to a selected few.
Key features of Wipster include threaded comments, version control, video encoding, HD playback, single sign-on (SSO) team setup, activity notifications, and feedback cycle management. The solution enables video makers to manage a centralized, shared multimedia asset library where all stakeholders can suggest revisions and track them across stages with version control functionality. It supports collaboration on all media types such as images, multi-page PDFs, video, and audio files, and provides a custom feature to setup individual teams for each project. Wipster facilitates real-time collaboration and review processes through alerts and notifications on web browsers, email, and Slack.
Wipster facilitates integration with third-party communication and employee engagement tools such as Adobe, Slack, Brightcove and more. It provides an open API for developers to customize and modify the platform based on business requirements. Additionally, it comes with built-in Azure integration, which monitors network security and automates application scanning processes for businesses to operate and exchange critical data in secure environments.

I use it as the head of video in a large local government council in London. I adore it. I have been using it since 2013 when I was invited to become a tester for it by a client from another company who became head of marketing at wipster.
Pros
Ease of use. Functionality. Workflow. Clients love it and it makes me look really professional and that I know what I’m doing
Cons
The mobile app is terrible and is only useful for viewing. That needs a shit load of work.

Wipster has allowed my team to significantly cut down on our time spent communicating with our videographer to quickly get our video content modified and published. We used to communicate edits via email, but it was often ineffective leading to additional revisions needing to be done for breaks in communication.
Pros
- Timestamped commenting on videos
- Upload Multiple revisions
- Tags to track video from Draft to Publishing phase
- Adobe Integration/Extension allows for use of Wipster within Premiere!
- Can invite viewers to comment on videos without effecting user quota
Cons
- Integration with YouTube is currently not functional, but support assures me that they are working on resolving the issue (this is a feature I am really looking forward to so we can upload approved files directly to YouTube)
- 5 GB storage cap on free accounts limits our ability to work on full-resolution files, and the next tier jumps to 250 GB which is offered at a price unaffordable for a business link ours. I wish that the free tier had the option to buy storage add-ons like those offered to higher-tier accounts.
Alternatives Considered
Dropbox BusinessReasons for Switching to Wipster
Commenting with timestamps in Dropbox is limited to Professional and Business plans, and as a Dropbox Plus user, this was not available for me to use. Even if we considered upgrading to use it, Wipster's commenting/collaboration features are more appropriate and efficient with multiple revisions capabilities.

It's getting there

Pros
We find Wipster very helpful for collaborating with our customers and getting feedback. It's a great tool for video.
Cons
I wish my customers could draw and circle things on the videos and images. It would also be helpful if the IOS app could view PDF files. It seems like wipster needs some more work. but It's on it's way to becoming a flawless tool.

Wipster is a great app that has made collaborating with clients, creatives and team members on video productions and projects much easier and more streamlined. The ability to pause videos and leave notes at that exact point in the video is crucial to our feedback and collaboration process - and the clients love it too. They feel more involved with the project and can specify exactly what changes they need.
Pros
Wipster is a very handy app for a visual studio like ours. We use Wipster daily to get feedback on storyboards, style frames and videos we are creating for our clients.
Wipster allows our clients to open a video or storyboard and make comments and feedback exactly where the input is relevant. In-app comments and discussions can be made by all team members and stakeholders working on the video or storyboard.
Wipster is an invaluable app for the day-to-day running of our studio and has been an instrumental tool in helping create the productions that make our clients happy. Another great feature is that we linked Wipster to our studio's Slack account. Whenever a client or team member makes a comment or an update to the production we are notified on Slack - which has proven to be very useful too.
Cons
To be honest there is not much we dislike about Wipster. Everything works as it should and it is a very user-friendly app to use. The only issue we have had in the past is some login issues for some of our clients wanting to review work - but these are nornmaly sorted out within a few hours max.

Ambiguous email feedback is a thing of the past. It's a quick and convenient way to manage getting edits in front of clients and team members and get concise (client dependant) feedback that is easy to work with and easy to see for all involved.
Pros
Commenting on specific areas of a video project makes it far more straightforward as an editor to pinpoint the exact spot the clients are referring to, making edits easy. The new ability to play at different speeds also allows for a much quicker review process helping my team speed up their workflow.
Cons
I wish there was more storage on the free version and that items in the bin didn't count towards your current storage. When you're over the storage, it's time-consuming to try and create the space.
