### "Easy to Use and Collaborative "

July 30, 2021

4.0

Pros

is extremely user friendly and you do not have to be a tech genius to use it. MY company regularly uses the software for collaboration efforts both internally and externally. I would highly recommend Ziflow to other companies or groups in search of a platform like this.

Cons

My least favorite feature on would be that this platform automatically locks previous versions on a proof route. While I understand this cuts down on confusion, sometimes this adds an extra step in the process of creating a new version. Truly not a huge deal, I just always have to remember to go back and unlock previous editing pages if needed.

### "Track changes on proofs easily!"

January 19, 2021

5.0

Pros

We have been using for a couple years to send proofs, reminders, and track changes on mockup designs. The text feedback and mark up feature has saved us so much time since we can easily see which areas are being referenced for edits. With design projects, it can be hard to identify exactly which section needs to be revised but Ziflow makes it easy to get both parties on the same page. Plus, they're easy to use! We can also see if deliverables have been opened so we know whether clients have had time to review them. It's also common to produce more than one version of a mockup and the feature to compare past versions has been particularly helpful for our team. It gives clients the chance to review V1 and V2 to see which version actually looks best. It also makes it easy for us to stay on top of the number of revisions that we've completed on a particular deliverable. This feature also ensures that clients are on the same page about which version is currently in revision and this reduces confusion significantly.

Cons

When reviewing a proof, there are many icons along the sidebar and the bottom of the screen. External users that are not tech savvy may find it difficult to use. There are some clients that could not figure out the markup feature and ended up leaving comments without marking up areas on the proof.

### "ZiFlow is the perfect proofing tool"

April 5, 2022

5.0

Quick reviews.

Pros

It's an absolute time saver. Reviews and discussion in real-time. So easy to add comments into a proof and tag others. Incredibly easy to learn and use.

Cons

Sometimes if I'm writing a comment and someone else submits a comment, it cancels what I was writing. Other than that no complaints.

### "Smooth Creative Review and Approval Process"

February 18, 2022

5.0

Pros

I most enjoy knowing where an image is in the approval process and who is in charge of it's next steps.

Cons

If there are a lot of notes on an image, it can become overwhelming.

### "Robust Proofing Software"

September 16, 2020

4.0

Pros

makes it very easy to collaborate and get proofing done in a more efficient manner. Our proofing process has improved and have been able to get our marketing collateral more quickly than before. They also have great workflow process to automate processes.

Cons

As a designer, I wish they had a plugin with the Adobe Creative Suite so I wouldn't have to leave my program. However, I wouldn't be surprised if they added this into the future as they are always making updates and improvements.

### "Ticked all the boxes"

October 15, 2020

5.0

The marketing and regulatory teams at Ego Pharmaceuticals have been using for a couple of weeks now and feedback has been nothing but overwhelmingly positive. I've had comments like "This is so much better than the old process!" and "I'm wasting so much less time on email!" I must have evaluated more than a dozen proofing systems before settling on Ziflow. It's a little pricier than some of the other options but in terms of ticking all the boxes on our URS it was head and shoulders above the rest. There's been a slight learning curve for content creators but reviewers have found it intuitive and had no trouble adapting to the new system. As an admin, I can't speak highly enough of the Ziflow support team. Despite being on the other side of the globe (in Australia), I always receive a reply within 24 hours, and very often within minutes. With their help I was able to set up an integration with Asana, which is another huge time-saver for the team. The success start training helped deliver training to the admins, content creators and reviewers which made for an extremely smooth roll-out.

Pros

High level of customisation and a variety of markup tools.

Cons

There was a bit of a learning curve for content creators (because we set up a fairly strict workflow with custom data fields), but the roll-out so far has been extremely smooth.

Reason for choosing Ziflow

Although it is at a higher price-point, the customisation options meant we didn't need to compromise on our requirements due to the limitations of other products.

### "A necessarily tool with tons of features"

August 24, 2022

5.0

It was a vital tool in our process. We've tried many and this one seemed to be the most robust and best fit for our needs with reviews and collaboration.

Pros

I like how specific you can get with the tools and collaboration. There are tons of different levels for users and comments are clear. Everyone is on the same page when using.

Cons

It can be slow to load with all the tools. We found that sometimes notes were confused with previous versions when they weren't loading quick enough. There is also a learning curve for clients who have never used it.

### "Extremely helpful software for any art team"

October 9, 2020

5.0

At first it was a little bit hard to switch our e-mail workflow to , but it was mainly due to habit. Once the team understood the purpose and advantages of this program there is no turning back.

Pros

As an animator, it is simply genius to be able to look at the clients comment in real time and with every comment timestamped. As an added bonus, I love the fact that they can simply point to something and automatically makes an arrow pointing to the right stop. Not everybody is good at explaining what to change, but Ziflow definitely makes the process faster and simpler.

Cons

I wish you could replace a file in a version without having to create a new version. If for example you imported the wrong file or you realise you made a mistake, it would be good to be able to switch the file (at least before the artist complete their auto-evaluation.

### "streamline processes for creatives "

March 23, 2022

5.0

We have enjoyed using so far and find it very helpful to streamline our processes and communication between team members and clients. It allows all information regarding a project to be in 1 singular location.

Pros

We have enjoyed using because it is user friendly, project status are clear to see and easy to update, and consistent project updates and reminders are sent to keep project members on track with timelines and deliverables.

Cons

Using , we have run into times where it would be helpful to be able to update the images once uploaded into the site. There are also such a wide array of tools and settings, so sometimes it can be confusing/ overwhelming to navigate.

### "Very simple and effective software for streamlining approval process"

June 25, 2019

5.0

We use it to manage an account where we produce a huge volume of individual assets, all requiring internal and client approval at an incredible speed. It allows us to manage, track and file every piece of work produced.

Pros

We produce over 300 individual assets per week and all need to go through an approval process. allows everything to be kept in one place, provides a simple workflow to track feedback and approvals. It's intuitive, fast and simple to use. And does exactly what it says on the tin. Without it, I don't believe we would be able to manage the volumes in such a simple and efficient way. And our client loves it. It is a big point of difference in the way we work with clients and they see it as real added value.

Cons

There isn't a negative that we have found! And having used it for 12 months, I don't think we will find one.

Reason for choosing Ziflow

We wanted a product that focussed on the one thing we needed, without having lots of other complicated applications. And we wanted direct support. The guys at were constantly in touch, helping us set it up and advising on the best way to manage things.

### "A great tool for collaboration and proofing of multiple file types."

March 20, 2020

5.0

Overall, has improved our workflow, reduced the Creative teams stress of multiple edits, hard copy edits and version control. We wish we had a few extra features as we cannot justify the price increase to get a wealth of more features (most of which we wouldn't use) - there almost needs to be a mid package between the two.

Pros

offers a wealth of accepted file types which is perfect for our intended usage. I've not yet come across a file type that hasn't been accepted. The structure of our team means that members of our group sometimes cannot get access to view vector formats natively, however, Ziflow enables this and more. The ease of uploading and sending proofs around our organisation has sped up our workflow and allowed for more time in the creation process.

Cons

At times, we notice a lull in connectivity and uptime, but not often. Whenever we do, Support is active and responsive and alert us to any known problems/estimated time to fixes. The Zifow status website is also incredibly helpful to determine quickly if the problem is on our end. The only other downfall is that certain features, we feel that should be included in the business package are only in enterprise, and the pricing step up to enterprise is considerably more.

Good tool to use; we never reached the high-volume of clients to see the true value.

Pros

Good markup tools, with comments, and approval tracking. Workflow management.

Cons

Folder views sometimes required the purchase of additional licenses. Workflow couldn't follow our process, so we had to create a clunky manual process.

Pros

There is almost no limit to what I can do with the automated workflow. After installing it in a simple way, I get things done much faster now.

### "A platform that makes it easy to collaborate internally and share creative content externally."

March 30, 2022

5.0

Our productivity has improved by eliminating numerous emails back and forth with clients. Phone calls are also reduced as feedback is easily identified and not lost in translation. Manual markups are eliminated completely.

Pros

Every feature works as advertised and is intuitive. After everything is setup, users have easily picked up quickly and adapted from old workflows. External users have picked up on it easily as well.

Cons

I feel like the onboarding process could be more streamlined and the account managers could work with new customers closer. Maybe investigate what the existing workflow is and help setup for success.

June 18, 2019

5.0

handles all of our file reviews from PDFs and images through to HTML5 and Videos. The initial setup was configured in a few minutes and the support team have handled any issues very quickly and competently. Clients who have used the system have all reported back positively.

Pros

is very simple for users and clients to adopt. The UI is extremely user-friendly and the features within the system make the review process streamlined. Proof workflows are flexible and can be handled in stages with manual or automatic triggers allowing project managers to regain the time they would have spent back and forth via email.

Cons

None. The solution fits our business requirements.

### "Ziflow makes group proofing and approvals a breeze"

June 30, 2020

5.0

Using was easy from the start. We started with a free trial and within a week, we had decided to keep using it. My account manager walked me through the main features and I was off and running. My company undergoes organic and quality audits on a regular basis and we needed to have all our packaging (and the history of changes on every single package) in one place, Ziflow has been the perfect solution.

Pros

My favourite feature, and the one that made me select , is the ability to turn proofs around. My company works on packaging with up to 5 sides and reviewers need the ability to turn the the art around to proof all sides. I also love the @mention feature as well as the ability to attache files to comments. Having used Ziflow for the past year, I find it's super easy to use and love that they're constantly adding features. Deployment within my organization was a breeze, I sent an email with a quick guide of the main functions and within a day, my team was reviewing proofs and making decisions on them.

Cons

The search feature isn't best. If I'm looking for an old proof and type in a key word, changes are, it won't show up in search results and I'll have to dig through my folders to find it.

Reason for choosing Ziflow

The ability to turn files around was the decision maker for us. The ease of use and low cost sealed the deal.

### "Very good proof management solution"

September 21, 2020

5.0

I like it a lot, having an easy way to track versions and comments not only saves me a lot of time, but also reduces frustration and miscommunications with my clients. I

Pros

Saves a lot of time, it is easy to add stakeholders and keeping milestones/approvals in place. I normally use large pdfs and once it is loaded, there is almost no lag. Also, it has helped me a lot when I need to keep track of comments and particular details, the client only needs to point at things, instead of adding long descriptions. It took a bit of training for some clients, but now everyone is using it to submit changes and approvals.

Cons

Overall it is a great product, if there was a way to generate proofs faster, it would be nice.

Reason for choosing Ziflow

I need something very easy to access for my clients, otherwise they would not use it.

### "A Game-Changer for Efficient Collaboration"

May 18, 2023

5.0

is a powerful solution that addresses critical business problems in our organization, including fragmented communication, collaboration challenges, and project management inefficiencies. Its implementation has had a transformative impact on our creative review process, improving productivity, enhancing collaboration, and ensuring the timely delivery of high-quality creative assets for our marketing campaigns.

Pros

I really appreciate all the benefits for creative reviews, including streamlined collaboration, precise feedback, and a user-friendly interface.

Cons

I think organizations seeking extensive project management features or requiring a highly optimized mobile experience may need to assess additional tools or platforms.

is an important part of our workflow — it keeps everything on schedule and communicated.

Pros

It was extremely intuitive and easy to onboard users. Even users with very little experience using proofing tools were able to quickly get up to speed. We now use this tool not just internally but with our clients to supply feedback on our work. The support has always been top notch with very quick responses.

Cons

There have been some technical difficulties with the tool correctly previewing html and interactive pdf's but largely these have been solved with some quick workarounds.

### "A great way to manage review and approval"

April 7, 2021

5.0

Pros

makes it easy for reviewers to comment on specific sections of a layout, image, video, or webpage. Reviewers can also comment on others' notes, so things can get resolved quickly without chasing things down. You can handle an internal round of review and then make sure that your clients/business partners don't see all those initial comments, by staging out the review process. People can also customize their notifications, and the proof creator can set notifications, deadlines, and roles in the review process (comment only, make decision, manage proof, etc.). We're fairly new at using Ziflow, but it's working well for us so far.

Cons

We're disappointed that powerpoint files can't display the Notes / talking points under slides -- for us that is a critical part of client and compliance review. The only way to get around this is to create PDFs that show the Notes section, but this is time consuming in a high production environment, so we handle slide deck reviews outside of .

### "Absolutely Changes the Reviewing Game"

March 20, 2020

5.0

Our clients review our designs solely online about 99% of the time, we were sending PDFs or Dropbox links, and would often get back half reviews in Acrobat and email or scanned documents with handwritten edits. It was a mess. COMPLETELY overhauled our reviewing process in the best way. We're now able to have multiple stages of internal review before it even goes to the client and then send to the client all in one place. The clients LOVE the capabilities of different comment types and the ability to compare new and old versions.

Pros

Having multiple review stages is the best way to review internally with our whole before sending to the client. I love being able to have multiple reviewers so that every client at a company can view in the same space so that comments do get overlapped. The different tools for editing text are great. And the compare proofs options is so useful as a designer so that our clients can see how we change formatting based on their feedback.

Cons

I have a hard time thinking of something so bad I need to comment on it. There are a few bugs here and there but nothing that would come near to outweighing the positives for me!

### "Great product but could be improved"

April 15, 2020

4.0

Despite some of the limitations of the software, I overall have very positive things to say about , and even better things to say about their customer service team! I see from emails each week that the development team is constantly making updates, and with each update the product gets even better.

Pros

I've been using within my organization for about a year. It's a great tool to help gather feedback on creative and copy, and keep everything organized in one place. It's usually pretty easy to onboard clients and they tend to express satisfaction with the tool. It's nice to be able to have everything organized in one place and know that all the feedback you may need to access will be there -- no more digging through emails or Slack conversations.

Cons

My biggest gripes with the software is that MP4 files cannot be bulk uploaded into 1 proof -- which causes out clients' inboxes to be swamped with messages, and sometimes proofs needing approval are missed. We also struggle with not being able to easily move onto the next proof without exiting out of the current window.

August 26, 2020

5.0

The customer service is nothing short of phenomenal. From the free demos prior to purchase (We did several) to the training program after purchase, to the random questions we frequently email them about, they are thorough, clear, quick on the response (super fast in fact) and have even done impromptu quick video sessions to walk though an answer.

Pros

The features are incredible, it's a little daunting at first when you learn everything can do but you can use only what you need first and then use more functions as you go. Though there is a learning curve, it's really easy to use once you get over the learning. I love the automated workflows. Ziflow is great for getting large teams and especially virtual teams more streamlined in our artwork review process with clients and for managing a large volume of work projects with clients.

Cons

There are some ancillary features I would like to have. When I've asked, customer support has provided a usable workaround if available and they always add it to their future feature request list. I respect that Ziflow knows their purpose and doesn't try to be all things. They do what they do extremely well.

Reason for choosing Ziflow

Zilfow is clearly the best on the market. No question about that. It is obvious wen you look at the competition. They just don't compare to . I'm extremely happy with our choice and only wished we'd started on Ziflow a lot sooner!
