I need quite a bit of help with organization and that's exactly what this program does. I
can write my script, make notes, storyboard, share my work, get feedback from my
department heads, and schedule the entire production. The screenwriting app is just as
intuitive as Final Draft — but here the script feeds directly into the pre-pro planning
(breakdowns, scheduling, etc.). I'd also like to give a shout out to their customer service
team who are very responsive and helpful if I have any questions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I would love to see a budgeting feature get added to the platform. It would make so
much sense and add yet another really valuable tool to the service. It would also be
great if they added a feature to the storyboard module so I could maybe draw
storyboards directly into the program but maybe that's just me being lazy.
I love the layout of StudoBinder. Everything is pretty self-explanatory but isn't so simple
that it doesn't do the job for more complex productions. Basically it is both user friendly
and effective. I'm not personally one that creates the productions and I needed
something that helped me to help my team to really make our production organized and
professional without having to be in the industry for years. This program really laid it all
out for me and helped to guide what I needed in order to get orgainized. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The cost is honestly a bit much. You can either have the free forever plan which allows
you one project OR the "Indie" plan that allows 10 Projects but is $49 per month. We fall
in the middle. I think that if they offered some additional pricing points it would be very
helpful so that we can scale up as we needed.
It offers an impressive range of tools that can certainly be considered one of the best
serious production tools I have used. However, the software feels somewhat immature,

the only drawback we could have with studiobinder is its cost since it is higher than its
competitors and that makes it difficult for small companies to allow using it freely Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The biggest upside of StudioBinder is that you have everything that your production
needs all in one place. This includes the ability to make call sheets (and send them),
create shot lists and storyboards, make schedules, DOOD reports, etc.
The fact that I can make a shooting schedule just by importing my .pdf (sometimes using
a .fdx), and it's able to easily recognize it. It makes it really easy to onboard my entire
team to the application, without any additional hassle.
I also love that I can add shots (and storyboards) to individual scenes in my schedule,
and it makes it really easy to save them as PDFs and/or print them.
The pricing can get expensive but the good thing is that you can easily
downgrade/upgrade to meet your production needs.
