Head to head

Where we win, and where we do not

Five comparisons, written straight. Each one says what the other tool is genuinely better at, because you will find out anyway and it may as well be from us.

The comparisons

The tools people weigh us against

SiteViewer vs Markup.io

The preview and the feedback in one

Markup.io

A polished, mature feedback platform. Point it at a live site, a PDF or an image and your client drops comments on top.

SiteViewer

We host the preview itself. Drag in an HTML file, get a private link on your own domain, and the comments are already built in.

Where Markup.io is the better pick

If you need to collect feedback across images, videos and live production sites you do not host, or you want one review hub sitting on top of everything your team ships, Markup is excellent and built for exactly that.

SiteViewer vs Workflow.design

Same job, same cost, more surface

Workflow.design

A solid product. Pinned comments on a live page, threads, resolutions, version history, guest reviewers. At $16 a seat, the same money as us.

SiteViewer

The same review room for HTML files as well as live URLs, and a custom domain on the review link so the client sees your studio, not a platform.

Where Workflow.design is the better pick

If you only ever review live Webflow or Figma sites and you are happy paying monthly for one seat, both tools will do the job. If you are already on Workflow and it works, stay.

SiteViewer vs Tiiny.host

Private client previews, not public hosting

Tiiny.host

A quick way to stick a public HTML page on the web, and genuinely great at it. But client work is not public.

SiteViewer

Built for sign-off: password-protected by default, on your own custom domain, behind one stable versioned link that looks unmistakably like yours.

Where Tiiny.host is the better pick

If you just need to throw a public page online fast, share a one-off PDF or portfolio, or host a broad range of file types without thinking about client branding, Tiiny.host is a genuinely great tool and we would point you to it.

SiteViewer vs Netlify Drop

Previews that do not disappear

Netlify Drop

A fast way to throw up a dev demo. The free, claim-it-later deploys are temporary, with no built-in password or branding. Wrong for a client who opens the link next week.

SiteViewer

The link stays permanent and stable, password-protected in one toggle, on your own domain. No Git, no build, no expiry anxiety.

Where Netlify Drop is the better pick

Netlify Drop is fantastic for exactly what it is for: instantly previewing a build, sharing a quick demo with a teammate, or kicking the tyres on a static site before you wire up a real Netlify project with Git, CI and deploy previews. If you live in that pipeline, stay there.

SiteViewer vs Vercel

Skip the repo, just send the link

Vercel

A world-class platform for developers deploying apps straight from a Git repo. Overkill when all you need is one HTML file in front of a client.

SiteViewer

No repo, no build step, no command line. Drag the file in, get a private link on your own domain, and send it.

Where Vercel is the better pick

Vercel is not a worse product, it is a different job. If you are shipping a real application from a Git repo, with serverless functions, preview deployments per pull request, environment variables and a CI pipeline, Vercel is superb and SiteViewer does not try to replace it.

Plans and prices change. Check each tool's own pricing page before you decide

Straight answer

When to pick something else

Every card above says where the other tool wins, because you will find out anyway and it may as well be from us. The short version: if you are deploying an application, use Vercel. If you want one feedback hub across images, video and production sites you do not host, use Markup.

SiteViewer is narrower on purpose. It is for the studio or freelancer with a handful of client projects at a time, who wants the preview, the versions and the feedback in one place, and the whole thing to look like it came from them.

If that isn't you, we've just saved you a signup.
