Overall Satisfaction with Ziflow

We are a small business so it is easily used throughout our entire corporation by our contractors and employees.
  • Highlights unique sections.
  • User friendly.
  • Can see others' comments.
  • Can share with anyone without Ziflow account.
  • Integration with other software, but they are working on it.
  • When putting in multiple images, it won't load as multiple proofs but instead one big proof.
  • The sharing with others should be front and center when completing a proof.
  • When adding an additional person to review, it should have decision already selected.
  • Saved us an additional five minutes to proof compared to writing emails back and forth with all edits.
  • Improved the clarity of our edits.
  • Can see when someone has viewed, which increased employee communication.
Extremely! Ziflow has helped us know when documents are ready to proof, when they need to be done, and what others in our organization think about the item. It helps the designer not get overwhelmed by the same comments and can know exactly where the portion being discussed is at.
Tremendously. I now know the ideas my boss may have on some social proofs one week and it helps me steer my future posts in that direction. It has made content review easy and seamless with the ability to gain more knowledge on the product we're proofing and make it better.

Would you buy Ziflow again?

Yes

Google Docs is where my company would do reviews and proofing before we purchased Ziflow because of the comment and revise feature. However Google didn't provide the option to proof different products like live websites, images, and more. Ziflow made it easier to proof items which weren't only .doc or .pdf.
Ziflow is well suited for any company that handles multiple content or document pieces that need to be proofed by multiple people. I work for a marketing agency and find Ziflow extremely helpful when reviewing any form of content. Ziflow is not well suited for a document that, when applying changes to text, is not as simple as clicking the check mark (in reference to Google Docs) instead, you have to rewrite. This hasn't been a problem personally but if someone is busy, I can see how it can be an issue.

Using Ziflow

It has proven itself very useful for our business tasks, especially content proofing. We are a small marketing business that uses a lot of contractors for tedious tasks and Ziflow has made the proofing process quicker and easier.
  • Content proofing.
  • Image commenting.
  • Collaborative discussion.
  • Quick reference of details.
  • Innovative: Using it for all social media posts, editing both image and caption.
  • Unexpected: Giving our contractors access so they can easily share documents without going through a staff member.
  • Unexpected: Upload live websites to see if content loads weirdly.
  • As our company grows, we can use it for our individual marketing Teams.
  • We can use it for writing our clients' more sensitive information like NDAs.
  • Connecting it to our other programs like HubSpot, hopefully.

Evaluating Ziflow and Competitors

  • Price
  • Product Features
  • Product Usability
  • Product Reputation
Product usability was the most important factor. All of our staff are very busy and do not have time to go back and search for email edits. This helped us to share our content easily and put all our content in one place.
I would look for a connection to HubSpot--this is a prominent application we use. However, I saw (see) that there is an integration in the making and I am excited to try it out.
