Streamwork has quickly become an invaluable partner for our team. Their platform has transformed how we collaborate and review creative, making it easy to collect, organize, and act on feedback for both internal teams and external partners. The platform is simple to use, efficient, and has noticeably improved our overall workflow.
I love the ability to leave comments on creative, and then to create tasks based on those comments. It's also helpful to manage who needs to see what version, and identify their role in reviewing. We work with external agencies and lots of stakeholders internally, so that's super useful.
Ziflow vs StreamWork
Overview
Ziflow has been in the market for years, and that experience shows in its age. StreamWork was built from the ground up as a modern, AI-enabled online proofing platform with the philosophy that enterprise-grade capability should also be extremely easy to use.
Your team should be up and running in minutes, not weeks. Your workspace should feel as organized and visual as the creative work itself. And feedback should connect directly to the people responsible for acting on it, not landing in a single inbox for one person to triage.
Over 75% of marketing and creative professionals say delayed approvals directly waste team budgets. If your team is ready for an online proofing platform built to fix that, StreamWork is worth a look.
StreamWork was purpose-built for today's enterprise creative teams, not adapted from software architected a decade ago. Powerful enough for the most complex approval workflows, intuitive enough that every stakeholder engages from day one.
StreamWork integrates directly with Asana, Monday.com, Slack, Adobe Creative Cloud, and more, so creative approvals happen inside your existing workflow, not outside it.
Powered by automated workflows, StreamWork helps teams route feedback, manage approvals, and reduce manual effort across complex creative review cycles.
Marketing teams, creative ops leaders, in-house studios, and agencies use StreamWork to collect structured feedback, manage multi-stage approval workflows, and maintain version control across every creative asset.
Review and approve videos, images, PDFs, presentations, documents, and more in one online proofing platform built for creative teams.

Ziflow's pricing can scale meaningfully as your team count grows. Adding stakeholders and agency partners to a campaign can mean adding seats, and watching the monthly invoice climb.
