A simpler, WordPress-native SureFeedback (ProjectHuddle) alternative
SureFeedback (formerly ProjectHuddle) now comes two ways: the self-hosted WordPress plugin, where you mark up live sites, images and PDFs from a dashboard site you host, and SureFeedback Cloud, a hosted service for WordPress, Shopify and HTML sites. It’s a capable generalist, but it isn’t builder-aware and has no free plan: self-hosted plans start at $119 a year at list price. Reviso is the WordPress-native take: pins resolve right inside the builder, there’s a genuinely free plan, and it runs in the same WordPress as the site you’re building. Open the live demo to see what your client sees, with nothing to install.

Reviso vs SureFeedback at a glance
Where Reviso wins
- WordPress-native. Comments become pins you reply to and resolve inside your builder – SureFeedback is a generic WordPress tool with its own separate dashboard.
- There’s a free plan. SureFeedback has none: self-hosted starts at $119/year at list price and Cloud at $299/year after a first-year discount; Reviso is free to start and $9/mo for Pro.
- Runs in the same WordPress as your build. No separate “hub” install to host and maintain – activate the plugin and go.
- Sign-off you can hand a client. Timestamped approvals (free) plus a downloadable PDF certificate on Pro.
- A published pay-once option. Reviso Founder is $449 lifetime. SureFeedback mentions lifetime pricing on its comparison page, but its current pricing page lists annual plans; confirm availability with them.
Where SureFeedback is the better pick (honest)
- You need to annotate static images and PDFs, not just live web pages.
- You already run ProjectHuddle or SureFeedback across many projects and do not want to change tools mid-stream.
- You want a fully hosted cloud option spanning WordPress, Shopify and custom sites.
Is Reviso a SureFeedback or ProjectHuddle alternative?
Yes – for WordPress client review it covers the same core job (clients commenting on a live site, you resolving it), but natively inside your builder and with a free plan. SureFeedback (formerly ProjectHuddle) is the broader generalist that also annotates images and PDFs.
Doesn't SureFeedback also keep data on my own server?
The self-hosted plugin does – and so does Reviso. SureFeedback Cloud, its hosted version, does not. The real differences are WordPress-native resolution inside the builder, a free tier, and running in the same WordPress as your build rather than a separate dashboard site.
Do clients need an account?
No. Reviso shares a no-login review link – the same low-friction flow you’d want from any client-feedback tool.
Is there a free version?
Yes. Reviso has a free-forever core plan with single-page review links; SureFeedback has no free plan (self-hosted from $119/year at list price, Cloud with a 7-day trial).
Switching from ProjectHuddle: what maps to what
ProjectHuddle was acquired by Brainstorm Force in 2021 and relaunched as SureFeedback in late 2023 – projecthuddle.com now redirects there. So if you have run ProjectHuddle for years, the real question is not whether to leave it, but which successor picks up the job. Here is how the concepts map if that successor is Reviso.
Two honest differences before you switch. Reviso reviews live pages – it does not annotate static images or PDFs, which SureFeedback still does. And there is no automated importer for historical ProjectHuddle comments, so most agencies simply run their remaining projects out where they are and start the next review round in Reviso. The day-to-day muscle memory carries over: pin, reply, resolve, sign off.
Try a concrete editing workflow
Suggest mode. Instead of a comment that says “change this heading”, your client proposes the new wording directly on the live page, like a tracked change in a document. You see exactly what they want it to say and accept or reject it in one click – accepting can apply the edit straight to the page in Bricks (Pro). Comments tell you something is wrong; a suggestion hands you the fix.
Beyond that: pins that survive edits because they anchor to the builder element rather than a screenshot, emoji reactions, internal team-only notes on any page, and a free-forever core – SureFeedback has no free plan.
Switching without a big-bang migration
- Keep SureFeedback for open projects. There is no importer, so let current rounds finish where they are. SureFeedback’s own FAQ says the self-hosted plugin is not being discontinued, so there is no deadline forcing a mid-project move.
- Start the next project in Reviso. Install the free plugin on that site, create a review and send the client the link. They comment without an account.
- Keep a separate tool for mockups. If you rely on SureFeedback for image or PDF proofing, Reviso does not replace that part.
- Close pages with an approval. Clients approve each page; if the verdict changes, your team can revert the approval from the builder. See how approvals and reopening work.
Test the workflow on one page before switching
- Try the client side. Open the live demo and pin a specific request, such as “Change this heading to Book a consultation”. Check that the comment points to the intended element.
- Try your team’s side. Install Reviso on a staging site, create a review link and leave one comment. Open that feedback in your builder, reply, make the change and resolve it.
- Check the paid feature you need. Use the 14-day Pro trial to test multi-page reviews or supported Bricks editing. For AI-assisted implementation, follow the MCP setup guide; that connection is separate from the public demo.
Decide based on whether this removes work from your next revision round. You can leave existing SureFeedback projects where they are while testing Reviso on one new project.
