Filestage alternative for small teams
Filestage is a review and approval platform with paid plans from $199 a month. That's reasonable for a team running many reviews, and more than a freelancer or small studio usually needs.

When Filestage is the better choice
If you have ten or more people reviewing work, need far more storage, or want several reviewer groups on each project, Filestage is built for that scale and we aren't. Its free plan is also worth trying if one active project is enough for you.
When ClientOkay is the better choice
If you're one person or a small studio, want your client to approve on a phone, and care about counting revision rounds and keeping a sign-off record, ClientOkay does that for a fraction of the price.
What ClientOkay does
- One link per request. Your client approves or requests changes on their phone, with no account.
- Revision rounds counted against what you agreed, on your page and on theirs.
- Reminders 48 hours before the due date, 24 hours before, and when it's due.
- Optional auto-approve 24 hours after the due date, only if your client was told.
- A dated activity log that exports as a sign-off PDF.
