Share for review
One of the best ways to get feedback from your team is to use the “Share for review” option, which allows you to generate a shareable link. This link can be accessed by anyone you share it with, regardless of whether they have a Wistia account. You can access the “Share for review” option on the media page, under the "Share" dropdown menu. Head on over here for a walkthrough on Share for review.

You can filter team comments to view those with a specific timecode, the new comments, or the oldest ones.

The tagged User will be notified on their Home page and via email.
