We created beautiful 3d interactive images for our website. It was easy and well done.

Pros

I like its intuitive nature. Without a lot of research and knowledge, I still get a lot out of it. We have some pretty specific needs that we were easily able to achieve.

Cons

The UI seems a little spartan. It keeps it simple and easy, but I would love to see a little more polish and personality in the program.

An additional option to offer to customers. I have a client who bought the idea and is already a user of the services on the site, with very good acceptance of the project.

Pros

It is a relatively simple manipulation system, the images are delivered as promised with good speed without deterioration of them. The configuration options are good, we had no problems so far.

Cons

What I do not like is the drawing of symbols for enlarging and reducing images. The design could be cleaner, more modern and discreet, it has to be visible more to the user and not compete for the attention of the user, more than the photo published.

Response from Sirv

Great to hear Sirv is working well for your needs. The design of the buttons is completely customizable. We provide 20 possible designs or you can create your own in CSS. It's easy and described in our help center at sirv.com/help/. Please email us any questions and thanks for using Sirv!

Easy implementation of storage and utilization of 360 Degree photos that showcase products, both new and used, to a variety of customers. It's invaluable when taking into consideration the thousands of dollars people spend on the equipment we feature with Sirv.

Pros

UI is simple and elegant while offering lots of bang for the buck when it comes to features and customization.

Cons

I wish there was an app form. I don't mind using the web-based service, but a desktop feature would be unbeatable!

Love the product and have signed up to deliver a number of products. Pretty simple to use.

Reviewed on 2018/05/03

Pros

Amazing 360 videos easily. Although compressed a lot the images still look great. Love how smooth they look and the in house compression is pretty simple. Lots of features too. Some I don't need but they really are great when tested.

Cons

Told to upload the largest sized images which uses massive space which I am charged for. Then sirv crushes the files to deliver the 360. Although they don't charge for their created files there should be an option to only keep their files so you don't have to go on higher priced teirs.
The file management system can be a little confusing and convoluted at times. Folder options are pretty hidden.

A lot of options are quite a few clicks away so getting lost can be an issue at first.

I was looking for an easy way to add our 360 photos and this worked well.

Reviewed on 2018/05/11

Pros

It is a high quality way to demonstrate our products in 360. After uploading photos we pretty much were ready to go. It doesn't take too long to load on the page.

Cons

I wasn't able to use the test version to do bulk photo editing. Tall order for a free product I know but would have been nice to test!

Pros

The customizability of spin sets and ease of use! I haven't found a host for spins that compares to sirv. It really has the right features.

Cons

The pricing per GB of storage seems pretty steep to me, especially when high quality spin sets can be 2-4mb an image. It adds up fast. But the features built into sirv help weigh in on the price.

Sirv is a must for 360 photography display on web

Reviewed on 2020/11/05

Pros

I have used Sirv for years, pretty much since it was developed. I have worked with [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] on my first implementation and i cannot recommend them enough. They have helped with Shopify integration and been very helpful throughout out. This was about 5 years ago. Since then the company has grown and software got even better. I will continue using sirv in my new business! Thank you!

Cons

I use Sirv display Technical diagrams on the website along with the products from Sirv's sister product Magic Zoom Plus. Sirv alows me to do so without loss of quality

Pros

It is important that I can display my clients' technical drawings online who are architects and landscape architects. Sirv allows me to do so.
The ability to specify parameters in the URL enables one to tweak one's solution quicly and easily. I like being able to save a combination of settings in a profile - it saves a great deal of work.

The documentation is excellent, as is the support.

Cons

The combination of parameters is almost infinite, and so sometimes it is difficult to work out an optimal solution. Images created in CMYK color space are not supported: for me, this has been more of a "gotcha" than a real problem.

Sirv has been great for our 360 ecommerce images

Reviewed on 2018/06/01

Pros

That it builds the 360 image on its own once the images are uploaded. Another big plus is that we can have the image auto-rotate in either direction. This makes life a little easier when we shot our images in reverse direction.

Cons

Pricing still seems higher than average hosting fees but I understand it's also a platform too. Another con in my book is that the interface needs to be cleaned up a little on the options (360).

It allow website users to rotate the products image and view from different angles allowing them to fully understand the product.

Pros

It allows our customers to view products in 360 degree, rotate them and view rear panels etc. By having this feature it prevents many phone calls to the office asking for images of products.

Cons

I do feel the annual renewal cost is high, we are not the user as this is done by our website developer - we are the administrator. From speaking to the developer they do not have any concerns.

Pros

VERY easy to use. Once the files are uploaded and the 360 object spin is generated, its very easy to
embed the link on a website. Spins may be created fast and deployed with ease.

Cons

Some of my clients may not want the "Powered by SIRV" logo showing on their website and would prefer it appears proprietary.

Pros

The customer support team is very helpful and responsive. The software is pretty easy to use and having a free introductory storage plan is great.

Cons

The capacity of the free introductory storage plan is not really enough to do a lot with, but it lets you get started and test things out. The monthly cost is high for us simply because we use Magento CE so the SIRV account is more than our website hosting.
