Frame.io

This is a great program. The new v4 update added much needed functionality and features. However, they got rid of some key functions that made cross-platform collaboration seamless. Hopefully they’ll bring it back soon as my team is remote. We’re already submitted feedback for the critical distribution in workflow.

My team loves this app for sharing video, however most video I shoot is on my mobile device. The desktop version seems fine but when I upload from mobile even on WiFi there are many problems. First, it takes 5-10 minutes to upload a 3 second video. When uploading b roll of short clips this takes forever. You can also only upload about 3 videos at a time. Meaning I can’t upload a lot of videos set my phone aside and watch them upload. It’s a time consuming process of uploading a few at a time, not being able to use my phone then uploading more. Also half the time this even becomes an issue because I get all types of errors. It will have uploaded then the file will be broken. More recently, yesterday, 16 files uploaded just as a white background. The convenience of the tool is out weighed by numerous bugs, having to constantly watch over each upload, and then having about 40% of the uploads fail. I have tried this on a iPhone X and IPhone 8 Plus and have had the same experience on and off WiFi. When I 1st got the program I had this issue, emailed the frame team to find a solution but never got one. Considering looking for other programs or just going back to google drive. Anyone else having this issue and have some fixes or alternatives to try?
