I use FrameIO, and really like it. I used it at Turner; it was the one we settled on after much back and forth and research by bigger brains than mine. FrameIO is responsive to customer needs, and developed extra tools for us for massive storage and ISO requirements.

I still use it now that I’m freelance. As with most other software its subscription now ($180ish per yr), but I’ve never had a problem with client access. If you’re using it for delivering masters you may need a slightly higher level ($$) of storage.

There are two levels of sharing. Presentation mode is a read-only link that can be downloadable or not. It does not require that the viewer have FrameIO. Review mode allows viewers to make comments. I think they may have to have a FrameIO account to make comments, but I’m not sure. Comments are frame based and allow drawing on screen. Mine is set up to e-mail me when a viewer leaves a comment.

That’s about the extent of what I use; there are other tools as well - levels pop notification, integration with Slack, etc.

My 2¢.

Cheers,
D
