What is StreamWork?

StreamWork is a review and approval platform used by marketing and creative teams to centralize feedback, streamline online proofing, and automate creative approval workflows. By consolidating version control, task management, and stakeholder input, it aims to eliminate bottlenecks and reduces rework. Teams can markup nearly any file type (videos, images, CAD files, documents, slides, etc), route assets through multi-stage approvals with smart deadlines, and share review links without requiring sign-ins.

Key Features:

  • Online Proofing & Markup: Annotate nearly any file type, leave contextual feedback directly on creative assets, turn comments into actionable tasks, and @mention teammates for seamless collaboration.

  • Approval Workflow Automation: Automate multi-stage approvals with customizable templates, reviewer permissions, conditional approvals, and smart deadlines—set it up once and StreamWork will manage the process.

  • File Sharing: Share review links with clients and stakeholders in seconds; they can review multiple assets at once on desktop or mobile without needing an account or login.

  • Integrates With Any Existing Creative Stack: Connects with project management tools like Asana, Monday.com, and Slack to sync tasks, track approvals, and streamline cross-platform workflows.

Top-notch Software for Creative Operations

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Before now, my team has struggled with the creative reviews process. All of the other solutions we've tried added too many extra steps or resulted in important feedback being buried. StreamWork's Asana integration keeps all feedback in one place and ensures the right people have visibility at the right time.

Pros

  • Integrations with Project Management software
  • Custom approvals routing
  • Excellent customer service

Cons

  • Further refining user experience

Return on Investment

  • Decreased the amount of time an asset is stuck in approvals.
  • Improved visibility into prior versions.
  • Improved designer efficiency as a result of having feedback in one place.
  • Reduced risk of unapproved assets going live.

Intuitive and Flexible

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I use StreamWork as a client-facing project manager that needs to share deliverables with clients in a way that both meets our security needs, and creates an easy and quick experience for the client. StreamWork creates an easy way to share multiple versions of a deliverable, provides tools to make feedback very clear and allows clients to share the review link with internal stakeholders as needed.

Pros

  • Version management
  • Multiple options for sharing and approval routes
  • Clean and simple UX

Cons

  • Allow for more subfolders to better organize large campaigns
  • Create a new layout for the main workspace to allow for better organization for large agencies with many simultaneous projects
  • Allow changes to be made to approval process after initiated, and allow external users (clients) to be added to approval process

Return on Investment

  • Better client experience in receiving and reviewing deliverables
  • Can more easily share multiple deliverables at once without worrying about file sizes or security requirements

  • Sharing externally is easy
  • Ability to input specific feedback with multiple tools
  • Simple download

Cons

  • Would like to be able to make more layered folders

Return on Investment

  • I have found turnaround time for reviews to be faster, both internal and external.
