FileInvite Alternative
Content Snare is an alternative to FileInvite for collecting documents and files from your clients
Content Snare vs FileInvite
FileInvite creates a portal where your clients can upload files and complete PDFs online. Technically, it does both of these well.
With Content Snare you can also create your own portal. The key difference is that it's a portal that is a dream for your clients to use. When you're asking for information from your clients, that's really important.
Think about your client's experience when they view their portal for the very first time. Is it extremely clear where they need to click, and what they need to do? If you've ever been on the receiving end of an unfamiliar FileInvite, you'll know the answer is no.
If the process is difficult for them, they'll avoid following your instructions and ultimately end up frustrated at their experience of working with you.
What your client sees
Zero learning. Extremely simple. Lightning fast.
FileInvite
Content Snare
In Content Snare, there's only one thing for them to focus on at a time. This makes the process much easier for them.
Collect more than just files
With Content Snare you can request any kind of information from your clients. If you want them to type in something like a phone number, ID number or any kind of text, that's easy.
In FileInvite they have to type into a PDF.
Manage changes
Clients often get things wrong or send the wrong file by accident.
Normally you have to write an email explain which file the problem is in, what's wrong, and what they need to do to fix it. If your client doesn't follow your instructions to the letter, they'll end up in the wrong place.
In Content Snare, you can mark a single item as needing an update from your client. They'll get a email taking them right to where they need to be to make the change.
