Running sales presentations can feel like you’re the human in a hamster wheel, churning out one presentation after another. (“Did I just go through the same slides three times a moment ago, or am I seeing mirages?”)
You want to break free from this relentless cycle and focus on tasks that truly move the needle, but streamlining this process usualy implies a costly and long process.
Imagine a system that allows you to effortlessly create a series of personalized demonstrations always set to dazzle your prospects any time of the day or night, without the need for constant control or monitoring.

… can be frustratingly ineffective at times.

The “TL;DR > Alternative to” section on this page lists Scribe and Tango, among others, as alternatives. That’s because SmartCue is also a sales experience platform for interactive product demos. It has additional layers on top for lead capture and sales. You can add “persona” avatars to your presentations and link them to custom CTAs, etc.
So you can surely replace Tango and Scribe for your step-to-step guides and even do more since SmartCue goes beyond them. Best to try it by yourself because it is so easy to use that it will only take you a few minutes!
Tier 1 provides 10,000 demo views per month for a total of 100 active demos at any given time within your account. You can delete any demos you no longer need to free up your total demo limits.
Since Tier 1 is mapped to the Small plan features too. If you require unlimited demos, unlimited views, and additional features such as Branding removal or custom branding with CNAME, I recommend examining our higher tiers while the deal lasts.
SmartCue provides three different roles to suit your organizational needs: Admin, Editor, and Viewer. Each role comes with its own set of permissions:
Admin: As an Admin, you have full access to the organization. This means you can change all the settings and manage every aspect of your SmartCue usage including billing.
Editor: Editors have the ability to edit, delete, and modify demos. They can’t alter organizational settings like an Admin, but they can create and manage the content that viewers see.
Viewer (collaborator): Viewers can view and share demos to which they have access. They don’t have permissions to edit or delete demos, making this role ideal for users who need to access and share your content without altering it.

I haven’t used it extensively, but wanted to let others know who are interested in this deal that this app works pretty great! I haven’t tested it on mobile yet, but on desktop its been a very fluid experience and very easy to build demos. I have several online websites, projects, notion boards, and onboarding usecases that I intend to build out fully with this app. The demos I’ve created, while not yet complete, have been a joy to use. the embeds work great! I like this app and I am looking forward to seeing how it evolves over time.
I’m using this app for tutorials and help docs for my SaaS. It’s an unbelievable value for my purpose!
SmartCue is a very interesting tool, allowing us to create a nice and responsive step process demonstrations to get the onboarding process simple yet pretty. I love the simplicity that was built in, where you just have to click on the browser extention and capture all the steps of your process. You can now customize the colors and logo to match your brand, and make it very easy to implement and add value to your project.
I love how SaasZilla is handling the early adopters of SmartCue and they value and reward their customers with features added even after the initial purchase. But the star is the founder Robin who is the responsible for creating and supporting SmartCue. He personally took the time to address some of my early questions and concerns with flying colors., going out of his way to and keeping me informed of the changes he made. Having Robin in command gives me piece of mind that this software is going to be well managed.
Really looking forward for the advance customization features that are announced. This will def be appreciated and help differentiate the look for the cards, which at the time of this review, we just have one opener design (pretty tho). Keep the good work Robin!
Excellent tool! Better than Tango, Scribe, Opus.Guide!
I have used this for creating several tutorials & SOPs already and just LOVE the simplicity, snappiness and ability to integrate the guides on external sites easily (via iFrame)
Having been a dedicated yearly subscriber to Tango, I’ve ventured into exploring various tools that purported to serve as suitable replacements for Tango. However, they often fell short, especially when it came to the user interface (UI) or user experience (UX). That was the scenario until I stumbled upon Smartcue!
To my delight, Smartcue proved to be as intuitive as Tango, showcasing a seamless transition with virtually no learning curve. What tickled my fancy even more was the enhanced UI that Smartcue offers – it indeed brings a fresh and engaging visual appeal that’s a notch above Tango, much to my amusement.
In our line of work, crafting clear and concise tutorials for our clients’ in-house staff, who range in their digital tool proficiency, is a daily endeavor. This is where Smartcue’s step-by-step tutorial feature becomes a godsend. It’s simplicity and clarity make it a breeze to convey the necessary information effectively.
Now, with Smartcue in my toolkit, I can confidently bid adieu to my subscription with Tango without a shred of worry. It’s a transition I’m genuinely excited about, and I look forward to harnessing Smartcue to its full potential in streamlining our tutorial creation process. I wholeheartedly recommend giving Smartcue a try; it’s a decision you won’t regret!
Only logged in customers who have purchased this product may leave a review.
The product pitch paints a very intriguing solution and your video is nice, it unfortunately doesn’t show the product itself in use. So I am still not sure exactly how the product functions. Do you have demo videos with the product in action?
My second question is, what tier is the Scale Up Plan? What I mean is, is it the highest, lowest or mid tier in the scheme of things and will we always be mapped to that position? I ask because sometimes growing companies changes tier names among others at which point it doesn’t seem to matter what the old tier was called. So what level does this Scale Up Plan put our purchase.
Hey Dee!
Here are a few examples of SmartCue in action:
Kloudle – https://embed.getsmartcue.com/IBTRVE36
ContractKen – https://www.contractken.com/clause-library (Scroll down on the page to see a showcase created using SmartCue)
Re: the plan itself – our goal is to cultivate only a limited number of LTD users that we can actually support and do right by. We’ll never short change you by changing plan name when building new features. And TBH – as long as it’s financially feasible, i’d rather that early adopters like you get the best of what we have to offer.
That may not be the response you’re hoping for, but I’m just being honest and transparent. Hopefully that counts for something!
This tool is amazing! What are the differences in this offer verse the offer you had on Appsumo previously? Thank you!
It’s the exact same deal, Dan 🙂 Of course, since AppSumo, we’ve added more functionality e.g. Ability to Blur and Zoom! So you’re getting much more for the same price! Hope this helps!
Outstanding Software with User-Friendly Interface
I must say, this is a fantastic, easy-to-use piece of software that has exceeded my expectations.
Every feature of this software has been meticulously designed to enhance the user experience. The interface is user-friendly and intuitive, making it easy for me to navigate through the various functionalities of the software.
One feature I am eagerly looking forward to is the video download feature. I am confident that it will be as amazing as the other features of the software.
Kudos to the Development Team!
I am thoroughly impressed with the software and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable and user-friendly tool.
Pros:
User-friendly interface
Well-designed features
Efficient
Cons:
None
Overall, I am extremely satisfied and look forward to using this software. Keep up the excellent work!
You are awesome Dara!
Really appreciate your support and feedback. The video export/download is on our roadmap – https://roadmap.getsmartcue.com/ Feel free to vote it up so we can prioritize it further! Thanks so much again!
I absolutely LOVE SmartCue. Some of my friends’ walkthroughs (Matt Cicanese) run SmartCue on their sites, and I showed it to a few of my team and colleagues.
You guys really make walkthroughs simple, stunning and, as one of my team members said… “sexy”.
We look forward to the function of blurring text and elements as well, thereby bringing a very necessary part to the path, and also removing dependency on another app.
Well done guys!
Hey Theo!
Your review makes me so happy 🙂
PS – Blur and Zoom is now LIVE in the product!! Check it out and let me know what you think! 🙂
– Robin
Are there any limitations or restrictions on embedding or sharing the created guides?
Hi Rudi! Currently there are no restrictions 🙂 It is truly unlimited (of course with FUP!) But I doubt you will hit them anytime soon.
Hi Robin,
Just want to know how many sites I can use Smartcue for.
Also, can I use it on my own custom domain?
Thank you!
Hi David – you can use SmartCue for as many sites as you like – no limitations 😊
Custom Domain is not available as of now. May be available in the future for an updated pricing 😉 !
Hey David, great news becaue CNAME is now available on the deal!
can i use it only in 1 url/demonstration or more than one?
Does it also work on a closed site/intranet?
Hey Inovatriz – You can create a demo using more than 1 url! 🙂 Also, for closed sites, you have the option of taking screenshots (using any tool of your choice) and then simply bulk uploading all of them into SmartCue in one go and creating a stellar showcase of any product under the sun! 🙂
Hey Inovatriz,
You can embed your SmartCues in multiple URLs/websites, and that includes closed sites and intranets too.
Cheers!
Hi,
Would it be possible to have a non-click interaction to explain a (part of) screen? To move to the next cue, maybe a button could be displayed in the popup.
We create instructions in other languages as well, could a translate option be added and a language choice for each SmartCue?
Thanks,
Mark Peters
Hey Mark,
We are working on a button interaction to augment the click/hotspot interaction. It should be out in a couple of weeks which I think will help your use case?
Translation is not high on our list as of now, but if enough people ask for it, we certainly will prioritize it! You can influence our roadmap here – https://roadmap.getsmartcue.com/ 😊
Hey, love Smartcue!
Heard some rumours of possible stacking options for this deal 🙂 Will it go forward? Or no? 🙂
In case it goes, what would be the extra benefits with a 2nd code? Cname? Branding removal? More editors?
Thanks!
Hey Bruno – thanks for being a avid user of SmartCue 😃 !
No concrete plans of stacking right now tbh. We might introduce tiers in the near term, but still working through how that will look, what each tier should include, how we will price it and of course, how do we tweak the product and pricing infra on the backend to support it. You’ll hear about it here for sure! 🙂
Awesome news, Bruno:
Branding removal and CNAME are already live and included on different deal tiers!
How does this work for mobile phone users? Is it optimized for phones as well? A lot of my customers use their phones
Hey, the team just told me this: “We are working on the mobile version. You can expect it by next week. Thanks” So stay tunned!
Hi Jake – you can take screenshots of your mobile app and upload them into SmartCue to create a beautiful mobile-friendly demo of your mobile app. Hope that helps?
I’m a bit confused, since it says on this listing “Watermark Free Demos” but it shows the SmartCue logo at the bottom of the demos.
And you have this info on the site:
“Currently, you cannot remove the SmartCue logo as it is a crucial way for us to drive more users towards us. We are working on enabling that feature for an added subscription fee in the near future. We appreciate your patience and will certainly keep you informed when we add that functionality.”
This might be a deal breaker for me, since this is a paid app, why is the need to advertise on our product? This feels like a feature if you have a free app.
Did you ever receive a response? I love the functionality of Smartcue but not being able to remove the logo at the bottom is a deal breaker.
Also not sure while they working on it as mentioned on the website does it mean we would have to pay again even if we purchased the LTD?
“We are working on enabling that feature for an added subscription fee in the near future. “
Hi, I can understand the confusion. That’s why I’d like to start clarifying that the watermark usually refers to something that goes on top of the images.
This watermark is displayed on the “Small” plan but removed for the “Scale” plan.
Said that, as usual and obvious, the deal you buy is always linked to certain conditions depending on the stack you buy.
Right now, this is an “all you can eat deal” for multiple users for a single code with an unseen price nowadays.
Therefore, even if the developer has decided to present this awesome deal, they need to have some way of growing so the deal is sustainable for them.
Here is wherethe reduced branding comes to play (it is included not only in the LTD plan but also on the recurring mapped plan similar to other competitor apps software that you can find on the TL;DR section of this very same deal page).
Note that SmartCue has recently secured an important big recurring revenue contract with the multinational company VirginPulse on the very same plans and conditions you see on their website.
Going back to the lifetime deal: We are working with the developer’s team to make everytying as clear as possible and including options for everyone.
Gladly, for those willing to upgrade for removing that branding, we are in conversations with their team so we can add upper tiers that would include brand removal and CNAME options (ETA 2-3 weeks).
For those getting this single code deal it’s estimated that it will convert to a Tier 2 or Tier 3, so better take advantage of it ASAP as early adopters because you’ll be saving even more when tiers are introduced.
PS: Appologies for the late reply, July and August are holidays so we both SaasZilla and developers are usually a little slower than usual replying queries.
Can I export the interactive demos, and host on my own server?
Can not use the software in the EU
Because of GDPR
Hi, I’m European myself and I’m not seeing any issue with the data that SmartCue uses, but I might be missing something.
Which exact part of the software data conflicts with your use case because of the GDPR?
I find nothing in your terms and conditions about GDPR.
What is export to GIF & video (coming soon) feature?
Hi, you are probably trying to ask the SmartCue team about this. I’m not part of it, but I’ll ping them 😀
Hi O R – We have a ton of customers in Europe who are using SmartCue without any issues. Are you facing any specific issues?
Also – regarding export – we do not offer that currently, but might in the future. Rest assured, all your data is secure. We use AWS with redundancies in place to ensure our customer data isn’t lost. Hope that helps?
Hi Robin, SmartCue looks great!
Do we get
1. brand removal 100% and
2. CNAME?
Are there any updates in this regard?
Thanks! 🙂
Hi, updates regarding this, along with the conditions that will be offered, will be coming in around a week. This will occur with the relaunch of our SmartCue deal by introducing different tiers covering different needs.
Regards.
Hey Kim Ba,
now with the latest updates, you can get brand removal and even custom branding + CNAME.
I hope you find it useful!
Regards.
Can you add an audio note or a video to a step of the guide? Or do you need to tediously type out the directions for any step that requires an explanation?
I looked at the videos you shared below, but do you have a video of someone using the tool and creating a guide? ((i.e. not a finished product).
Thanks!
Hi liam – you cannot upload an audio note or video yet. That is something that is on the roadmap, but will probably come sometime next year.
Are api integrations included in any of the tiers? I see they have options on their enterprise plans.
Hi Robert, the team has confirmed that the API is only part of the custom enterprise plans. Regards
May i know is LTD or 1 year plan.
My account show only 1 year plan.
Plan – SaaSZilla Tier-1
Sep 25, 2023 – Sep 25, 2024
This app is absolutely amazing! It has been a game-changer for me when it comes to creating tutorials for my web app. Setting up step-by-step instructions has never been easier. With this app, I no longer have to manually capture screenshots and paste them into our website’s help documentation. It has saved me so much time and effort. I highly recommend it to anyone in need of a time-saving solution for creating comprehensive step-by-step documentation and tutorials!
This is indeed a lifetime deal. As a lifetime deals launchpad for SaaS, we typically don’t offer annual deals. Seeing one here would be unusual, but it’s always wise to verify. However, we recommend contacting the developer support, as we don’t have control over their system or the display within your account. In this instance, it’s confirmed to be a display issue on their end. They will assist you in resolving it if they haven’t done it yet.
PS: Thanks for your 5-star review BTW. We are glad you are loving it!
