Helps us with review process for regulatory needs

Rating: 7 out of 10
Incentivized

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Ziflow for food label review to ensure it meets all regulatory specifications and also to provide design feedback. It allows us to keep careful records of change versions to understand what happened between versions, and to ensure that everyone can get to the work asynchronously in their own workflows.

Pros

  • Showing changes by having versions
  • Easy to add comments
  • Easy to invite additional reviewers

Cons

  • Would love to be able to see the version without the red comment flags - a "review" view as sometimes I can't see the big picture once it's all tagged
  • Pricing is a bit high for the # of seats - feels like it's an arbitrary restriction
  • Email notification settings are unwieldy - could be much more customizable and pre-set

Likelihood to Recommend

It's useful when you have multiple versions of a design or something that needs to be reviewed by multiple people. Basically it keeps it more centrally located and has a change management feature that is useful. I would use it for editing documents - if you're just doing 1-2 things a month it's not valuable, but for 10-20 across 4 people it's been very helpful, especially in a remote environment.

Simplifies the correction process.

Rating: 9 out of 10
Incentivized

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Ziflow at our company to review decks and web pages. We review our content internally and with our clients. I really like the fact that we can add comments over threads, leave things open, and close out others. You can also compare versions. It's a really good platform with good UX.

Pros

  • Organize content and compare decks.
  • Easy UX.
  • A simple way to mark errors or corrections.

Cons

  • I would love open items to migrate to the new version if they're not complete.
  • Sometimes, I wish there were fewer emails.

Likelihood to Recommend

It really speeds up the process of correcting items and speaking with clients, developers, and designers. It's really easy to point out issues and attach images to each comment if needed for clarity. They also added reactions and filters, so there is even less confusion in the correction process.

Ziflow - the best proofing software out there

Rating: 10 out of 10
Incentivized

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We compared multiple software providers and this was the best. It had solutions that we did not even know we needed! It was also great to see this for all file format being available. We use it for website proofing, ads proofing and even PDF proofing. Multiple workflows and people can be setup.

Pros

  • Markup feature
  • Tagging of teams
  • Mark tasks as done
  • Workflow Setup
  • Video Markup Feature
  • File Support
  • File Size Support
  • Approval Feature

Cons

  • Email Management in very specific cases
  • UI could be a little cleaner but it has a lot of features, so it make sense
  • Nothing else

Likelihood to Recommend

Eliminate changes being forgotten and also collecting assets from all directions (email, dropbox, etc). Intake forms are helpful for assets. Workflow can be setup for different departments and you can all work on the same document at the same time and leave comments. It make s thinks so much more efficient and makes sense those days.

Ziflow continues to excel in every aspect that we need it to!

Rating: 10 out of 10
Incentivized

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Ziflow as our main review tool for all internal and external marketing/information pieces. Previously, we printed out physical copies of the promotional material and used a folder system to keep track of who had completed their reviews. Prior to that it was done through back and forths over email. Ziflow allows us to centralize the review process and maintain a strong understanding of where each project stands.

Pros

  • Track when users receive and open the proofs
  • Track who has made final decisions regarding a proof status
  • Track how many versions we have had to go through to reach the final

Cons

  • Better integrate the website review interface
  • Allow certain users to upload proofs without having to be an owner
  • Ability to organize proofs by Owner

Likelihood to Recommend

We have a team of over 27 Scientific Writers who are constantly producing and reviewing various types of content in our company. We collaborate with over 120 different partners who assist us in taking that content and turning it into educational programs that work to enchance the knowledge of countless medical teams. Ziflow serves as the bridge between all parties involved. Through Ziflow, we are able to share our work to those who need to review and give a final sign off on each of these programs,

Excellent Proofing Platform

Rating: 10 out of 10
Incentivized

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use the platform as an online proofing and approval tool, across our complex matrix business with multiple stakeholders.

Pros

  • Great functionality
  • Easy to tag stakeholders
  • Easy to add comments/amends
  • Search function

Cons

  • Search function is great but it would be good if it didn't have to be so precise to find what you need

Likelihood to Recommend

Any scenario where you need to store proofs, capture amends/approvals and comments on design and copy work this is perfect. It has great gated functionality to ensure that all comments are collected/approvals before the next stage. It's intuitive so you really don't need much training to use so perfect for all stakeholders, even those who aren't au fait with creative production. The comment function is easy to use to highlight text, add new copy etc. It beats track changes (for copy) hands down!
