Overall Satisfaction with StreamWork

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 and Cons

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

Usability

StreamWork is very easy to use if you have any experience at all with any type of proofing tool, or even a basic level of tech savvy. It's intuitive and doesn't offer an abundance of unnecessary features, which I say as a positive aspect. The only part of the tool that takes some learning is approval routing and sharing.

Alternatives Considered

PageProof, Workamajig and Frame.io

Compared to the other tools that I have used, StreamWork offers the most flexibility for internal and external needs. Workamajig was my favorite for centralizing a creative brief and creating a clear flow of approvers internally, but it never worked as expected with external users. Frame.io is only for videos, and is very similar to StreamWork in many ways. PageProof had so many issues and complications that ultimately I avoided using at all costs.

Likelihood to Recommend

StreamWork overall is well suited for most marketing agency use cases. Overall, it is simple and easy to use with minimal snags in the process. The StreamWork team has always been responsive and collaborative when challenges arise, and we have even had new solutions created since adopting in response to our needs. The only situation where I think StreamWork may not be the best solution is for massively large agencies or workplaces with 1,000+ employees.
