Hi Barbara,
Thank you for sharing your experience.
Based on our notes, we completed a film project with you. We're glad the film conversion process felt straightforward on your end. That's exactly what investing in our expertise feels like.
We understand that cost is a factor when it comes to investing in such important projects. We will keep your experience in mind as we continue to improve our services and appreciate the time you took to send your feedback!

“Communications need improvement.. Quality of staff and product is really very embellished..."Our experts"..etc jargon does justify very high price which was not justified for the result..Maybe your specialty is videos or photos.."Improving my audio" would have cost way more than the satisfactory I would have received... Despite this review if folks are desperate for your service..Hey go for it...”
“My feel the tapes that was to messed up to repair yall should have told me It can’t be done.. I feel it was a waste of money.. yall transfer my tapes to DVDs an im having so much trouble seeing the video.. my wedding dvd..😠omg came out very bad.. i should have gotten a discount for that on,my prom dvd came out a little better.. but still not great.. totally not what I expected”
Hi Jamillah,
Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We know how important these memories are, and it's frustrating when the results feel disappointing.
For every video tape transfer, we include a quality letter to help set expectations based on the condition of the original materials. Our goal is always to preserve anything that can still be captured, since many clients are trusting us with important memories. When there is viewable content, even if limited, we digitize it so you have access to everything that still exists on the tape.
A team member will reach out shortly to gather a few more details. They'll review your concerns alongside the notes from your project and let you know the best next steps.

“Really special to have our grandparents audio cassettes transferred to digital audio files. We have found the ever present app to be a bit cumbersome and wish that it was more intuitive. The audio files need to be re-labeled to better identify their content, but I don’t see that option. Being able to sort the files into different categories would be helpful also.”
Hi Liz,

“The quake quality of the work was very good but the whole process was unnecessarily over the top. Communication was difficult; direct answers were not answered directly. When I used this service several years earlier, it was much more straight forward. It feels like a lot of unnecessary bs was adding for the sake of c appearance/marketing. It weakens your relationship with your customer and your customer's trust in your integrity, in my opinion.”
Hi Madeline,
Thank you for sharing your experience with us, especially so as a repeat client. While we remain committed to putting our clients first, it's clear we fell short in your more recent experience. We take these concerns seriously and would love to hear more. We'll take our learnings and adjust our process, as needed. We want every client to feel confident choosing us again for projects that matter most to them.
We value your continued trust and thank you for choosing to work with us again.

“I am delighted with many of the photos. Quality Varies from good to door. Process was very slow and very little contact with staff. Very expensive. Not much discount for large order. Delivery was smooth.”
Hi Bonnie,
Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We're glad to hear that many of the photos brought you delight and that delivery was smooth. At the same time, we regret that the process felt slow and communication did not meet your expectations. We understand how important it is to hear from us regarding your project and seems like there may be an area for improvement here.
Regarding pricing, every order is handled with careful attention to detail. For larger projects, our pricing structure automatically applies bulk pricing, and while that discount was included in your order, we understand it may not have felt significant. For future batches, we're happy to review your archive together and explore a quote that better fits your needs.
We truly appreciate your trust in us with your photos, and we hope the images that brought you joy continue to hold lasting meaning.

“Cost was initially reasonable, turnaround for a small and straightforward jod (digitize 14 slides-35mm) was not. “Expedited turnaround doubled the price. As Everpresent then had the sldes in hand, I had no choice. My fault for assuming a small job could be handled in less than a month.”
Hi Robert,
Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We're sorry the turnaround felt longer than expected. Even small projects like yours require careful handling in our production queue, which is why expedited service comes at an additional cost. We don't want to skip steps ensuring the best capture we can get out of your precious materials.
We hope the digitized slides bring lasting value and would be glad to assist with future projects. Thank you again for your business.

“I sent a cassette of my older brother interviewing my grandfather,after a while they sent me three CDs and two USBs of some weird baseball jabber . I reviewed my cassette and my grandfather was still there but not on any of the material Everpresent sent me. I have tried in vain to get the stuff I paid for but have gotten the run around so far . Unless they come forward and rectify the situation,I would not recommend them. So, it took a while, my experience/ complaints were totally unique. But they did rectify my project and I did get it back as I originally intended.so, it was much Longer than. I thought it would be. I assume whomever was responsible for the original mess was at least given a talking to.
They honored the payment I had originally made ( as was as it should be) and delivered my project, so other than my original aggravation it all ended fine.”
“The digitization of my materials was nice to have but- my thumb drive and box of materials came back with someone else’s stuff. The marketing tact with this company to ‘protect’ your precious memories is a bit of a farce with the experience I had. And, when I brought it to the customer service’s attention they told me that the didn’t mix up someone else’s materials with mine. I have the proof on my thumb drive and I even returned the poor other person’s materials back.”

“I spent many hours putting my photos in chronological order and placing them in a shoe box in chronological order. When I dropped my photos off, I was only able to speak to a receptionsist so there was no discussion about the details of my order. Some days later, a technician called me about my order, but she never discussed with me the order of my photos. I had approximately 800 photos digitized which ended up not being in any order and were quite mixed up. I'm disappointed that the technician did not bring this up for discussison. When I picked up my photos, I also just spoke with a receptionist who was not able to answer any questions. When I called and spoke with someone about this, I learned there was an extra charge to keep the photos in order, which I would have been happy to pay, had someone brought this to my attention. I feel there's a level of sloppiness and lack of clear communication on the part of Everpresent.”
“I was pleased with the care of my cds and album you used. But I was disappointed with the instructions for downloading etc. Eventually I downloaded VOX so I could combine all to play at a time. Plus I requested a Zip drive of all 3 items and only the vinyl record was put on it. I finally just gave up trying to communicate. Too bad,”
Hi Katheryn,
Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts with us. We’re glad to hear that you were pleased with the care we took with your CDs and album. However, we’re sorry to hear that the instructions for downloading were not clear, and that you didn’t receive everything you have requested.
We will have one of our team members give you a call for more information. We'll send a follow up email if we don't reach you. We stand by our service and would love the opportunity to correct your experience.
Warm regards,
The EverPresent Team

“Excellent customer service was provided at my local office. The products were also very good; however, the technicians were unable to digitize one out of six VHS video tapes from 1989. I guess it's a good outcome considering the year they were taped.
I was expecting more; they offered constant contact and updates while working on your material, but provided no communication afterward.
The prices at my local office were different from those on the website. I informed the consultant from MA, but instead of telling me that they would honor the lowest price, he immediately stated that they had changed the prices. As a result, I only gave them 5 VHS tapes for the first experience.
I read in another review that they charge the additional fees without consulting you and using your credit card. Unfortunately, they did the same with my account. I would not mind paying the extra ($15 each video) for a cleaning and $50 for handling, but I did not sign up for automatic payment using my card, Did they kept the CCV number in their system?
Be mindful of the additional fees you may incur; from the initial 22-dollar digitizing each videotape (basic option, price from website), I end up paying 60 dollars each (Total invoice divided by 5).”
Thank you for your feedback - we’re so glad to hear you were satisfied with our customer service and products overall.
We apologize for any confusion around pricing and project expectations. It looks like the tapes we digitized for you were PAL/International format which we consider a non-standard format and the pricing differs from our base rate. Fortunately, you came to one of the few digitizing companies equipped to handle this type of format, and we're glad we could assist.
That said, we regret that we didn’t communicate the process more clearly. It’s our standard process to settle payment upon project completion using the card we have on file as stated in our Client Agreement form. Even so, it’s on us to ensure expectations are clearly set from the beginning, and we’ll work on improving that.
We truly value your input and thank you again for choosing EverPresent.
“for those of us who prefer to do all communication through text and email, this service is not ideal… it seems a phone call is required when there are questions to answer and a discussion to be had. It’s also possible that there will be a language barrier.”
Hi Scarlett,
Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We understand that clear communication is crucial, and we regret any inconvenience caused by the need for phone calls during the process. Our team is equipped to handle discussions via phone or email at the client's request so we apologize for not meeting your communication needs. We're continuously working on ways to enhance our communication methods and will take your insights into consideration as we improve our service.

“I was happy in the care that my VHS was handled but I was disappointed that the VHS was not let to run enough to capture all to go on the USB. Main events were not recorded to USB.”
“Tapes are old but the price is fixed regardless of the quality of the transfer. In my case the sound quality was so poor on the transfer as to make the digital product almost useless. There is no way to ensure that what you will get is worth the money. You get whatever they produce and have no idea is advance if it will be worth the price.”
