GoProof vs. Ziflow

In our small membership-based organization, we have many stakeholders both internally and externally. GoProof doesn't require accounts and is extremely user friendly. I find even the most technology-hesitant person is comfortable using GoProof. Many within my company take advantage of a flexible schedule, but that means reviewing marketing projects under deadlines can be tricky. GoProof can be easily accessed and proofs quickly reviewed. The system then notifies all stakeholders of updates so fewer emails need to be sent. It's much more efficient and I find work is completed much faster.

We work with a lot of cross functional teams, so it is nice to have them review things on their own and provide feedback all in the one place for our team to review. It helps cut back on meetings and emails full of feedback that gets lost. This is especially helpful when we are working on our catalogs. We do reviews on Ziflow all the way from rough layouts to proofreading.

• 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.

Incentivized

• Reviewing design and function of email and web pages
• Adobe CC extension occasionally won't load
• More agile foldering/organizing system

Incentivized

• 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 prefer GoProof over PageProof. GoProof has a more user-friendly layout and workflow. PageProof has many functions hidden on the screen so it's not as simple to understand. One of the features, in particular, adding other reviewers, is too complicated with PageProof and I am never sure if I am doing it correctly. GoProof allows proofs to be removed by an administrator no matter the status of the creator. With PageProof, I have proofs sitting in my inbox for months that were unfinished for a reason but I can't remove them. PageProof does allow emails and webpage to be sent through the system to review function and design. It's a really great feature that I wish GoProof had.

I found Ziflow to be much better than PageProof in several ways. The tools available for making comments and edits are more intuitive and there is a greater variety of tools and the version control features worked much better as well. Also their customer service was far better when it was necessary to interact with the company

• Went completely paperless and sold two large printers
• Flexible employee schedules no longer hinders project flow
• Work from home is possible and very easy

Incentivized

• Improved efficiency and time saved in making proofs and adding people to proofs with staging and template features.
• Robust proofreading features for reviewers like comparing previous versions.
• In my experience, customer service is quick to help with issues or outages (which aren't often).
