RedMarkit.com Visual Collaboration Tool

I was recently contacted by the creators of RedMark at Redmarkit.com and awarded 50 beta invites to share with you guys and gals.

The RedMark Mission Statement
RedMark’s mission is to help designers and clients find a common language through visual collaboration.

What it is.

We all need to collaborate with our clients, teams etc at one point or another throughout the life of the project. Feedback is important to the process in order to ensure that the final product is the best it can be.
Redmark allows you to do just that with ease. Simply upload a design and subscribe your client or team member. They will receive an email alerting them to the fact that there is a new document up for review. At that point they can easily markup and annotate directly on screen. Once they have added their comments they simply click Send Feedback and you will be notified via email that feedback has been left. All revision will be tracked throughout the life of the project.

If you have a look at the screen shot below you will see how easy it is for the client to leave a note. No more of those instances where you have a client saying “You know that blue box at the bottom next to the black text, yeah, can you move that up by the other black text”. With Remark they can simply attach the comment to the specific area in question and keep the process moving, no need for you and the client to hop on the phone in order to sort out what black text they are referring to.

Another feature I really like is the fact that there is no log in process for the client. They receive a link directly to the uploaded project and can begin marking it up immediately making the process extremely smooth for them.

My Review

I took a bit of time reviewing this one before I decided it’s a winner because in the past I got burned by a similar service that froze up and did not allow my client to review anything. So after testing it out quite a bit myself. I can say that Redmark is extremely easy, responds well and runs nicely.

Upon review I did have a few questions/suggestions so I sent them off to one of the creators. He responded within and hour and noted that the particular featured I had mentioned was already in the works. Can’t beat customer service like that.

So in the end I definitely recommend it and I will definitely use it.

That’s all I am going to share, for the full scope get yourself an invite code and try it out for yourself.

About Those Codes

I can get you an invite code no problem, shoot me a DM on Twitter @jeremyjaymes and I will get back to you with an invite. If you would rather not follow me on Twitter because you feel I am rather annoying or you are rebelling against Twitter, that’s fine too. Just drop me an email at jeremy[at]papertreedesign[dot]com and I will be happy to send one out to you.

  1. Hello Jeremy,

    Redmark it starting its buzz, and it’s great to see more and more people trying to take care of the design community.

    I’m the cofounder of a small but nice French startup and we are doing UpShot (http://upshotapp.com).

    We’re working on the same concept (help the designer get more time to create). We focus on simplicity and efficiency which means that every non techie customer can understand how it works within 15 seconds.

    You should give UpShot a try and give us your feedback, don’t hesitate to contact me!

    Bonne journée !
