Frontify Erfahrungen

Great tool to digitize your brand guideline

Kommentare: We used Frontify to digitize our brand guidelines and to provide access to it for all our colleagues around the globe. It's a great tool to present all aspects of your brand and to guide everyone through your brand. It is also a great asset tool for your images/photography and videos, icons and documents. You can also easily personalize your content. The support and training provided by Frontify is a great help even if the tool is very self-explaining. It's the perfect software to digitize your brand standards.

Vorteile:

It's an easy-to-use software, self-explaining and almost endless option to use. The content are easily maintained, changes and updates are done immediately. The management of the user groups, user rights and the targets are very smart. It's a great software for all the needs of a brand portal: for guidelines as well as icon, media and document libraries. And it's perfect for all those who have multiple brands to manage.

Nachteile:

Some functionalities in the presentation of the content can be improved, e.g. using tables

Frontify enables brand engagement

Kommentare: The overall experience is great. With Frontify, we have made a large portion of the organisation brand ambassadors that keep our brand expression consistent, accessible and engaging.

Vorteile:

Frontify has enabled us to work consistently with our brand across the entire organisation. It has simplified all aspects of our brand management, while at the same time increasing internal brand engagement and commitment a lot, from understanding and emotionally connect to the brand core identity to finding the right assets at the right time. The Frontify support function is also very responsive in every stage of the process, always friendly, agile and helpful regardless of the matter.

Nachteile:

Some parts of the Frontify set up process and administration are somewhat unintuitive and hard to grasp. The backend UI is also not the best from an admin user perspective, with some processes being a bit unclear and overly complex. There are also some bugs within some features, but nothing that can't be worked around.

Good

Kommentare: I am quite new at it and havent discovered all the benefits but its great to keep digital assets in one place for various people to use it. A little expensive as you dont get much space for your money

Vorteile:

I like the way you can tag digital assets and also the ability to add externals to upload digital assets

Nachteile:

That you need to add all the main users to each folder everytime

The Publisher is my hero!

Kommentare: I think Frontify is a great software. It's very helpful to have one link for all brand elements and that we are able to personalise it.
While building our own style guide, the customer success manager was very helpful with full detailed trainings and keeps me up to date with new features.

Vorteile:

There are many departments in my company that need a lot of banner designs, so I made templates that are easy to use and saves me a lot of time. My colleagues are very happy with this and it gives them the freedom of making their own banners when they need it. Also with the approval feature, I can check if the brand guidelines are respected.

Nachteile:

Hopefully one day we could be able to implement Adobe illustrator files instead of sketch. Our company uses a lot of vectors and illustrations, so it would be nice to be able to change/edit those in the publisher.

Brand Hub for FLSmidth

Vorteile:

Simplicity and easy to use. User-friendly interface for both administrators/editors and users. Visible continuous development of the platform.

Nachteile:

I often experience technical issues (slow loading, errors in libraries), but customer support is always helpful. Sometimes I miss functionalities that I would find important, but we can often work around it.

Great products

Kommentare: Very happy with the product, more team members who learn about it, want access for other applications.

Vorteile:

Its a great product and we've been with them from almost the beginning. Great to see they've worked with us as the product has changed.

Nachteile:

Some limitations on versioning when edits are made. So there needs to be a bit on on-boarding to make sure nothing is removed by accident.

Empower your brand!

Kommentare: I highly recommend Frontify to all companies who need to boost their brand and marketing materials. I dont want to miss the oportunity to thank [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] (our Guest Experience Manager from Frontify) for her continuous help. Overall, since its implementation Frontify has had a positive impact in our company and how our employees interact with our brand, which each day is being used more and more.

Vorteile:

Frontify helped us to better organise our brand materials throughout the company. It's a platform easy to use that alows you centralize all your content virtually.

Nachteile:

It has been a great experience so far. No problems at all.

Great Tool for Brand Managers!

Kommentare: Frontify has been a huge help to our team and allows us to maintain brand consistency when working with colleagues and agency partners that are not in-office. We use Frontify for both our agency and most of our clients and would highly recommend to any one!

Vorteile:

Frontify is so user-friendly, easy to learn, and flexible. Even with all of the features and functionality points you can tap into, it is still intuitive!

Nachteile:

I do wish there were more integrations with 3rd party tools so that we could integrate a few more of our daily software into Frontify for even more efficiencies.

Intuitive and easy to use

Kommentare: We have implemented Frontify Enterprise both internally and for clients, and it complements our design process well.

Vorteile:

Frontify Enterprise has been easy to implement as a platform, and Frontify have provided great support for us in terms of security features, SSO integration and security testing. Frontify Support have been very responsive to help our design team push the envelope with setting up the brand portal and style guide.

Nachteile:

There are some Digital Asset Management features that we need, that are on the roadmap but are not available yet.

A great way to create living style guides and asset libraries for brands

Vorteile:

Frontify is really easy to use. Building out an impressive asset guide is quick and easy. Makes it really easy to share, as well. Being responsive by default is a big plus. With your brands assets living here, there's no need to create/share antiquated PDFs that are constantly out of sync. Share the Frontify link, and everyone is always up-to-date.

Nachteile:

Better management of how small images display would be nice. A bit more control over the look/feel would be helpful as well.

A platform that adapts perfectly to our needs

Kommentare: With Frontify we were able to centralize all our branding in one place. Employees are more empowered and know where to find information easily.

Vorteile:

- A branded guide accessible anywhere, anytime- easily found assets- customer service is always good

Nachteile:

- The responsive mode is not optimal for the home page

Change the way an organization thinks about a brand

Kommentare: Intuitive, broad functionality. But some of it seems to be coming from an evolution process rather than from a long term vision.

Vorteile:

Involves the entire organization: In order to create an on-brand presentation, users need the template, images, icons, font etc. That's how Frontify sneaks into the daily business of all employees.

Nachteile:

It is not fully mature. Some features are not fully integrated, functionality does not allow granular configuration. Some processes are not (yet) fully thought through.

Awesome support and teamwork

Kommentare: Our team is happy to use Frontify brand tool since almost one year. We get awesome support and suggestions on how to improve our customer experience. Our needs are listened and our suggestions are taken seriously. When we find out that something is missing, the product team is ready to put it in the development pipeline and assure that all our request are considered in the future. The strong effort to improve and change what is not working, is a strong driver to work with Frontify in a long term prospective.

Vorteile:

It makes our brand looks consistent and accessible in all the organization. Have everything that we need to control our brand identity and share it with other also externally.  I love the support of the team and how they listen to our needs. This is so important to me.

Nachteile:

The fact that some times there are small bugs (ex. downloads of some templates), but they are fixed really quickly.

Strong brand management platform

Kommentare: Overall, easy company to do business with and a user-friendly software platform.

Vorteile:

Setting up a site to manage and control access to our brand guidelines was extremely simple with Frontify. It took very little training to be able to utilize the features in our package, as well.

Nachteile:

I suppose there might have been some limitations around some of the core platform's templates but that didn't necessarily impact our use of the tool. I tend to think brand management software like this is typically more important for B2C companies than B2B ones but our use of Frontify was definitely successful, especially after going through a brand refresh and needing to ensure adherence to new corporate standards.

Awesome brand tool

Kommentare: Very happy!

Vorteile:

User-friendly and looks current! Not getting complaints from agencies.

Nachteile:

Unable to upload all types of files, but there's a good selection that works.

Brilliant Branding tool

Kommentare: Love this tool and it makes brand management that bit easier when it's all online and easily accessible and to be distributed.

Vorteile:

Ease of use and then sharing across thousands of staff and external contractors across a large geographical location.

Nachteile:

Nothing stands out at the moment as problelmatic

Frontify is a great option for complex brand management systems

Vorteile:

Frontify is a great brand and digital asset management software. It's very clear and easy to use for designers and non-designers.

Nachteile:

There are no obvious cons to using Frontify.

Frontify makes your brand styleguide looking good and saves you a lot of time maintaining it!

Vorteile:

Frontify really supports me as a designer and helps me and my company to preserve and improve our corporate design guidelines and brand awareness. Although the product was great from the beginning they are constantly adding cool new features and functionality to make the product even better.

Nachteile:

Since Frontify introduced the DAM module I have no cons anymore :-), before it was quite a task to manage all the digital assets and keep them up to date

Frontify is easy to learn and use. As a brand manager this is the tool you need.

Kommentare: Easier overview of our brand, written guidelines to share with whom you have to share them, downloads to ensure that everyone is working with the right logos etc.

Vorteile:

It's very easy to learn and to understand. Further, you can easily share the content with others and you even find the needed topic very quickly. The software is very handy and enables the possibility to explain the brand in a good way. And I'm sure, we still do not use every option Frontify has on offer.

Nachteile:

There is nothing to mention. I am very happy with it. What I could mention is that we do not use every feature and we should really change that.

Easy to use

Kommentare: Easy and fun product!

Vorteile:

It´s easy to learn, a lot of features and always fast & accurate support!

Nachteile:

I wish a content block could be duplicated (without being referenced)

Convincing software

Vorteile:

easy to apply in practice, amazing features, very good support

Nachteile:

constantly continued to develop and recquests will also be considered

Brand consistency with Frontify

Kommentare: Frontify is simply the best solution to achieve brand consistency in the digital age. It is an super ease-of-use and we didn't even need to train our staff on it, because it was self explaining in nearly every point.

The best interactive Styleguide

Kommentare: It is great to have all the designs and code patterns defined in one place. This tool allows design/code consistency in the whole company.

A true win win scenario for everyone

Kommentare: Frontify, gives us the possibility to showcase our creativity digitally to our clients and give them a modern (easy to use) solution for the good but old fashioned brandbooks. With a Frontify brandbook we can show our clients that we think in modern solutions and make their and off course our work a bit more easy and cheaper. A true win win scenario for everybody.

Frontify is our favorite solution when it comes to software helping us with our brand management.

Vorteile:

It's so easy to use, extremely flexible, and allows us to focus on the actual brand management instead of maintaining the software that supports the brand management needs.

Nachteile:

Like many robust and flexible software solutions available, there are some minor bugs - but no deal breakers.
