Ziflow

Being able to track who made what decision and/or comment and also when is vital. Also by removing any ambiguity on change requests, especially when using the markup tools, means even the most complex changes are clear and we can proceed with confidence to the next project stage. It is also nice to be able to upload a file to assist with comments and what they specifically refer to.

When we have several proofs under the same project, the new interface makes a little bit difficult to find each version, the thumbnails don't show the aspect ratio (as the old interface did). Also the name of the proofs appear cut when the title is long. On the other hand, the dashboard shows clearly each stage of approval, which makes very simple managing several proofs.

Ziflow is well suited for publishing processes of all nature - from print products to online publications and even media-enriched publications. It is great for working on the go and submitting notes for immediate feedback using the in-built communication capabilities. I have not found scenarios where Ziflow could be considered not appropriate, given that the scope of Ziflow is very precise and fills a specific niche in the market.

I have not used for video presentation, but it seems like the collaborative effort would require a higher learning curve. But for print or web media, it provides an excellent source for proofing and feedback from clients. Especially since they are not required to create their own account.

As a company in the product development sector, the majority of projects require input from different departments, such as, Product Development, Marketing, Social Media, E-commerce, etc. Ziflow is a powerful tool that has allowed us to facilitate what before used to be physical documents passing through each department. A single round of comments could take days. Instead, using Ziflow allows us to have all departments involved add their comments simultaneously if a much faster fashion, making the process more effective and efficient.

Ziflow is definitely best suited for sending proofs to clients especially in materials that needs visual reference to easily determine what needs to be changed and corrected. It can definitely save you tons of time, instead of going back and forth in reading the comments from an email to make sure you've understood the what needs to be done, you can just easily view those comments in the proof here in Ziflow.

Ziflow is very well suited for approving food labeling and packaging that needs to go through multiple people across the company for quality assurance sake. It is not the most suited for small social graphics that require lots of edits and multiple rounds of uploads. It's better for bigger projects.

Ziflow, as a platform, provides active design and development teams with an incredibly useful tool for being able to review our work in progress. This allows us greater control and time efficiency in our development process. The ability to then share these live projects for internal and external reviews has significantly reduced the volume of emails and back and forth on Slack and Teams so we can spend our time developing and delivering and not having to chase people down to get them to review what they need to.

Very well suited when creating an artwork. Easy to add comments and translations into an artwork and make comments on small errors, to easily fix. Shows well the list of artworks you have left to approve.

Less suited when doing a lot of artworks in a row. We sometimes proof check around 50 artworks, and you have to each time go out of the artwork and send a notification to the designer.
Also when you go back your search is lost and you have to search to find the artwork again.

Video review with multiple stakeholders and creatives will need a diverse tool like this. Comments on style frames and storyboards need different tools than on video, and Ziflow does a good job balancing both.

As a designer, Ziflow is well-suited for everything I do, as it is all visual work. For instance, I regularly create designs that clients need to review and leave feedback on. This tool is always appropriate for that because of the nature of its purpose. I do not however use Ziflow for web design review, though it is capable of it. We use a more powerful tool for that.

Ziflow is a great one stop solution for proofing design work. After look at others an finding them to confusing i was so glad to find Ziflow.

Ziflow has been great for us as it has allowed our customers an easier way to approve their artwork for us to print. The commenting section of the proofing process has helped us as our previous way did not offer this feature.

Ziflow is a great solution for creative agencies and departments that are partner-facing. The platform looks professional and is intuitive for the people who use it—whether as a user or a reviewer. At the time I would say it is better for content that is ready for the client's eyes and less so for internal reviewing due to the upload process being a little tedious at times.

Ziflow is the perfect solution for teams that have multiple people collaborating on complex creative projects and require multiple rounds of revisions. It is especially useful when more than one person will be providing feedback and signing off on projects, and even more impactful when reviewers can have overlapping feedback that clutters the decision-making process.

As a designer, it is perfectly suited to me. I use it in my everyday working life for all my artwork proofing needs. This tool has been so helpful in organizing my artwork proofs and clients' comments that since I moved from freelance to Full-Time employment I have implemented it at my company and upgraded to the business plan so I can have access to more tools and features which has been fab.

I went through a small transition period between freelance and new job where I didnt have Ziflow and struggled and had so many issues with feedback comments being sent on commented PDFs etc and just made everything confusing and frustrating. As so as I got my Business Ziflow it was like a sigh of relief as Ziflow basically sorts out all my proof comments issues I had before making the process so much easier for me. My colleagues have told me also that it has made it easier for them to. It allows for proofs not to be lost on an email and there all in one place and the variety of tools my colleagues can use to comment has helped them out alot in order to tell me exactly what they want.

There is rarely an instant I don't use Ziflow I suppose the only time I don't use it is when I'm doing quick social assets and I send them on a team chat instead and its not really worth stilling a proof but everything else goes into Ziflow.

We have found Ziflow to be extremely helpful with projects where multiple team members are involved. This tool streamlines all feedback and updates in 1 location where everyone has visibility. This has cut down on our time managing projects and there is less back and forth between all project members.

From my experience, Ziflow has been well suited for editing any type of AI or visual files, as well as keeping track of deadlines. What Ziflow would not be well suited for I would imagine would be a project you just need to do by yourself and don't need to communicate with others on, but even then it could still probably be helpful!

Ideal for any team that needs to garner feedback from multiple individuals on a specific deadline.

It is intuitive and users enjoy working with Ziflow.

It is well suited when trying to use review materials throughout their lifecycle but is a little less suited for client-facing reviews.

Ziflow is well suited in the creative field. You can easily send photography and layouts for markups. Marking up the project is easy and it leaves little room for misunderstanding when working with multiple people. It is also great to see if an image or layout is clearly approved or is still a work in progress.

Works extremely well for packaging, especially when there's finite details/lots of wording. Or even looking over any design piece/work that is text-heavy and has a lot of graphics. Doesn't work as well when you are proofing different medias but it's all one project, they force you to separate them out.

For all large design projects, logos, enewsletters, website designs and multi page documents we go straight to Ziflow. When a client asks for a tiny text or image change we simply mke the change and email back a revised file. Requests for website updates or fixes also stay in email since they require no proofing.

It's great for multipage projects, such as a brochure or presentation deck. The compare tool is very helpful when reviewing those multipage jobs. Also, it handles videos pretty well. It is clunky with projects that have large surfaces, such as out of home or large posters. You'll need to use the Zoom tool for those jobs, and it's more time-consuming to scan using that tool.
