It's been pretty smooth from day one, I haven't had any major concerns about the software as it works exactly as intended. I'm encouraged by their progress with adding features too.
Pros
The client portal was the main reason I signed up. But also since they're a smaller company, I was able to speak with the [sensitive content hidden] during the sales process and they took on feedback immediately. Great company!
Cons
They didn't have payment processing in place, but it's coming soon!

Incredible. I 100% highly recommend the platform if you are looking to optimize systems in your business and streamline operations.
Pros
Motion has helped us streamline our onboarding process, along with simplifying our deal closing process, and overall keeping our business more organized. My team has been extremely happy with Motion thus far, and if we ever need help or have suggestions their team is quick to reply and help as best they can.
Cons
I would say more customization ability would be nice, along with more features, but they are growing and adding to the platform quickly, so I’m not worried about either of those.

Very good, the team has been fantastic in responding to my inquiries and made themselves available for quick video calls as well.
They also are implementing product updates and improvements on an ongoing basis.
Pros
We require clients to submit a multitude of documents aligned with a checklist and Motion is great for that, it also allows focused messages about a specific task/document without the hassle of emailing.
Cons
Some fine-tuning is needed in terms of tasks/document workflow.
At the moment, the client can click a task as complete when they submit a document, but it is not necessarily complete. It may be the wrong document as an example.
I would prefer the client to submit a task/document, and to leave it as ''Submitted''.
The SME can click on ''Completed'' when the task is actually completed e.g. the document(s) that were submitted is/are satisfactory.

We had an demo call with on of their team, which was very clear. We signed up for the trial and they helped us with the setup. We've been using it for a few months now and can't fault it.
Pros
The customisation of the platform is very extensive. Also how easy it is to onboard clients because of it. Lastly the fact you can use Zapier to trigger automations based on actions on the platform.
Cons
I really wish they had a Make.com integration.

Pros
The ability to customize a portal for my customers was why I chose Motion.io initially. Their on-going development just keeps confirming they were the best company to provide my customers with a portal to collaborate with our team and make the process seamless.
Cons
I have only ran across a couple of items that would be nice to have but not show stoppers. Although, the communication with the Motion.io team was great and the couple items I pointed out were already on their project list for future updates.

My over all experience has been very positive. My company tried out four other client portal systems before landing with Motion. Our clients have had nothing but good things to say.
Pros
Responsive support and the ability to have global tasks but assign them individually as the need arises. The simple sign in procedure for the portal is also a plus. The ability to use digital signatures in the portal is a huge plus. The chat feature is solid and the notifications from the system are timely.
Cons
I’ve had to learn some different terminology as to what they call things vs what was used to with my previous service.

Motion.io is the straightforward tool designers have been begging for
Reviewed on 12/08/2024
Pros
I love the ease and simplicity of setting it up and using it. I don't even have to record a tutorial for my clients. This is the only tool that makes it super easy to send automated reminders and keep track of my client's to-dos. The magic automations that link one task to the next are also really nifty.
Cons
Unfortunately there are still a few kinks I'll find here and there, such as tasks marked "done" showing back up as active, or having to click twice to assign a person to a task - but I also understand that it's a relatively new product. I also feel that for a tool as simple as this, the price should be cheaper and/or have more of the features included in the lower tier.

Hi Emily,
It's fantastic to hear that Motion.io provided your design business with functionality and ease of use that other tools could not!
Regarding the two issues you pointed out (tasks marked complete showing back up as "Active" and clicking twice to assign a person to a task), we deployed fixes/feature enhancements to address both shortly after you published your review.
Regarding pricing, we continue to explore options to ensure the cost of each plan reflects its overall value. As we roll out additional features, changes will be coming.

I was an early adopter and really looked around so much for something for creative designers and their teams. This fit the bill, was easy to set up and allowed me to get going really quickly. Customer service is responsive and really thorough with answers and they have YT vids that explain all platform changes. I know there are tons of other software services popping up all over, but what keeps me here is the way I can interact with my clients and manage the projects. It's not really clunky and just makes sense.
Pros
It wasn't a service based portal app that just stored documents. It actually allowed separation between my clients and my team by allowing them to have their own space. The updates are consistent and make sense for the evolution of the platform and customer service is responsive.
Cons
The forms download could use improvement. You can do it, but it doesn't format the documents in a useful way for us or the clients. Longer forms have the answers cut and pasted into text documents. This kind of negates the download feature, imo. Also need a way to invoice or even sell upsell a service inside the platform. Currently those are embeddable features. Native function would be cool.

Price and ease of use for what I needed it for.Response from Motion.io
Thanks for your review, Aneesha! We're thrilled that Motion.io has been a perfect fit for your agency.
Based on your feedback, our team will prioritize enhancements to our form export functionality in an upcoming product update. In the meantime, Motion.io's Zapier integration can provide a quick workaround.
Finally, thanks for calling out payments, invoicing, and upsells - as this functionality is on our roadmap!
Our vision is to support you from the moment the client is ready to sign, to payment, to product delivery, to off-boarding, to upsells and cross-sells of new products. And, when a customer purchases another product in your portal, have that auto-import the appropriate template of stages and tasks and kick the project off all in the background.

Motion.io is an awesome product that is constantly pushing out updates and launching new features that makes it even better each week.
Pros
Motion.io does everything we ever dreamed of when it comes to customer onboarding software. We especially like how the portal doesn't require a login, it shows tasks due, and auto-follows up on tasks due with the customer.
Cons
Anything we thought was missing or any rough edges we found with the software, we let Motion.io know, and we saw fixes come out within weeks - so I can't say there's anything we like least right now. They are moving fast on improving the product which is a huge plus!

The support at Motion.io has been unbeatable. They have quickly answered every question we've asked, quickly implemented new features we requested, and spent time ensuring we understood the system! It has been easy to use, easy for our clients to use, and changed the onboarding process for our clients.
Pros
Having a simple and easy space for our clients to onboard and manage their tasks. We are able to set up automated task reminders, have a dashboard that doesn't require them to learn a new system, and make sure our clients felt confident about what was happening during their time working with us.
Cons

A GAME CHANGER!!!!
Reviewed on 25/07/2024
Pros
I love how easy it is to set up from the backend side but even more so how easy it is on the front end for clients. I have spent the last couple years looking for the right system to make project management easier WHILE having the ability to showcase the collaborative efforts between clients but every system was always too complex for them. I didn't have to do any explanation to any client once implemented and it's been smooth ever since. The magic link feature is brilliant. I love customizing portals. So excited for all of the new rollouts because I definitely see my agency growing with Motion!

It makes the overall process much easier than before. I do high-level work and it's crucial I track the pieces of not just onboarding but also what happens as we work together. Before this, I was piecing things together, and it was in all different places, making it time-consuming to track.

Pros
Very easy to use, clients adopt it without any problems. If you have many projects to administer and gateway points where you need clients to submit documents, approve drafts and deliverables, sign agreements etc. Then this works perfectly.
Cons
No big drawbacks - it works. Licensing costs can add up, but the key is to focus on those who administer a project with one or more clients.
