Cage vs. Ziflow

Ziflow is a great program for all our proofing needs. Creating a proof is as easy as dragging it over. To add someone, you can just start typing an email and it'll pick up from an address book and you can click the name. You can also add multiple people to one tag and have them all added at once to a proof. You can also create templates with people already added to various stages to really speed up the process of adding people to proofs. The stage function itself is also great for having multiple approvals from multiple stages instead of creating new proofs after each person approves.

• Simple and user friendly interface with little if no learning curve.
• Accurate and specific change requests are especially enhanced when using the markup tools.
• Nice to be able to assign who the decision maker is and also be able to change project participants easily, like when someone goes on holiday or sick leave.
• SOCD (sent, opened, comment, decision) progress indicators provide an awesome 'at a glance' view of project participants activity.
• Email notifications and integration with ASANA is brilliant.

• Software bug when updating one of many document status. Sometimes, Ziflow displays a document as "pending" even after being approved unless you manually refresh the page.
• When a comment is too long, the email notifications are displayed incomplete.
• When using "compare mode" with comments, Ziflow leaves little space to look at the actual document. Thecomment section of both proofs combined can easily take up to 50% of your screen.

Ziflow is easy to use, efficient and now is also part of our daily lives. Hence, the teams are already adapted to the tool and willing to work with it. The features are according to all what was expected and we had a great experience until the moment with the tool

The tool is easy to use for digital oriented people. For the ones not used to this kind of environment, it could look a bit complicated at the beginning, but following the instructions and tutorials and performing it once makes you get a grip of it in just one use.

The ZIflow support team has always been very responsive to my questions, issues and other problems. The good thing is I have never had to use their support team all that much because Ziflow has been for the most part trouble free. If it had been error prone, we would have dropped it long ago.

They were friendly and took the time to go through everything, especially relating to how we would use the system.

It was seemless! Things got instantly better when we started using Ziflow!

I only used Workfront for a short time before we switched to Ziflow. I know that pricing was a big thing and there were features that Ziflow had to offer that Workfront did not. One of those being the automated workflow process and being able to set templated workflows. I have liked Ziflow from an interface perspective better as well.

• We used to do all reviews by email, but it was hard to consolidate, and sometimes the wrong version was referred back to. This has saved countless manual hours of management and tracking.
• Now we can see the status of each proof at a glance, no need to read email chains!
• Version comparison is a LIFESAVER.
