Additional DetailsNo two teams are alike. So why offer “one size fits all” pricing plans? They just don’t work – teams are locked out of features they need while they get features they don’t need. We do things differently. We create individual pricing based on your team’s specific needs and budget.Educational discounts are available for the Business and Enterprise editions. Up to a 20% discount is available for annual pricing.

I don't have much to compare Lytho Workflow workflow to, but I'd say it gets the job done for my small department. I can't imagine a world where we didn't have it. There are times when the software does not work as expected though. For example, if one of the marketing managers archives a request after it has been accepted, it will disappear from the request queue but remain as a job in my job queue. From there, I have to archive it again. The same goes for comments - if someone makes a comment on the request, it does not appear on the job, nor am I notified. I have to click through to the request, from the job to see those comments.

Ziflow is a great program for all our proofing needs. Creating a proof is as easy as dragging it over. To add someone, you can just start typing an email and it'll pick up from an address book and you can click the name. You can also add multiple people to one tag and have them all added at once to a proof. You can also create templates with people already added to various stages to really speed up the process of adding people to proofs. The stage function itself is also great for having multiple approvals from multiple stages instead of creating new proofs after each person approves.

Pros
  • Project requests - can be tailored to fit your exact needs
  • Project management - can assign tasks, track time, etc.
  • Proofing - robust proofing environment that's easy for clients to learn
Read full review
  • Simple and user friendly interface with little if no learning curve.
  • Accurate and specific change requests are especially enhanced when using the markup tools.
  • Nice to be able to assign who the decision maker is and also be able to change project participants easily, like when someone goes on holiday or sick leave.
  • SOCD (sent, opened, comment, decision) progress indicators provide an awesome 'at a glance' view of project participants activity.
  • Email notifications and integration with ASANA is brilliant.

Cons
  • Crashes - The workflow web page crashes very frequently and I've never been able to figure out what the cause is. Refreshing the page always fixes this issue.
  • Proof Approvals - I wish there was a way to remove all people from the route that have approved and resend to those who haven't. Reviewers who have already approved often do not want to see future proof revisions coming through their inbox. It would be nice to have this as an option, rather than having to create a new revision and manually removing all that have approved before sending.
  • A more personalized dashboard - My dashboard is more geared towards someone who is requesting or reviewing jobs, rather than someone who is completing them. As a result, I rarely use this page.

  • Software bug when updating one of many document status. Sometimes, Ziflow displays a document as "pending" even after being approved unless you manually refresh the page.
  • When a comment is too long, the email notifications are displayed incomplete.
  • When using "compare mode" with comments, Ziflow leaves little space to look at the actual document. Thecomment section of both proofs combined can easily take up to 50% of your screen.

The tool is easy to use for digital oriented people. For the ones not used to this kind of environment, it could look a bit complicated at the beginning, but following the instructions and tutorials and performing it once makes you get a grip of it in just one use.

The ZIflow support team has always been very responsive to my questions, issues and other problems. The good thing is I have never had to use their support team all that much because Ziflow has been for the most part trouble free. If it had been error prone, we would have dropped it long ago.

By consolidating the requests, project management, and proofing without features we didn't need like invoicing it was an easy fit for us. We were able to quickly develop a comprehensive workflow and the gains to efficiency were immediate. Pricing was competitive (at least at the time) and the implementation was very good as well.

I only used Workfront for a short time before we switched to Ziflow. I know that pricing was a big thing and there were features that Ziflow had to offer that Workfront did not. One of those being the automated workflow process and being able to set templated workflows. I have liked Ziflow from an interface perspective better as well.

  • We used to do all reviews by email, but it was hard to consolidate, and sometimes the wrong version was referred back to. This has saved countless manual hours of management and tracking.
  • Now we can see the status of each proof at a glance, no need to read email chains!
  • Version comparison is a LIFESAVER.
