One of the consistent development themes across our last few releases has been the idea of customer-customization; the ability to customize the online proofing process via automated workflow, custom domains, private comments and account level settings & defaults to name a few examples.
Today’s release delivers several enterprise-centric capabilities which will give agencies, brands, and creative marketing teams of all sizes even greater control over their review and approval processes. There’s a lot to cover, so let’s jump in. Keep reading to see the new capabilities, available today.
By creating custom proof properties, you can quickly zero in on a subset of your proof library according to your preferred business and/or process views. If you prefer to view your projects by specific attributes (such as project/client name, project or campaign name, billing code, asset type, issue, etc.), you can now create custom metadata for proofs which can be used for filtering, as well as building custom views and sorting.
The end result is a more customized view of your review and approval progress and outcomes.
Custom proof properties are available to Enterprise Edition customers only.
One of the most requested features that had yet to be delivered, is now available. Similar to how you use “@’s” in messaging and project management applications, Ziflow’s @mentions allows you to draw a team member’s attention to a specific piece of feedback within a proof.
Mentioned team members are notified immediately of the comment regardless of their notification preference.
Ziflow now supports the creation of “minor version” proofs e.g. v0.1 / v1.2. This unique capability is great for internal work-in-progress (WIP) revisions that don’t warrant a full new version to be shared with a larger set of reviewers or your customers if you are an agency.
These minor versions can be hidden from subsequent reviewers if needed. Minor versions can still be used with our side by side and pixel-level comparison mode.
With today’s release, reviewers can now filter comments which have received
In our relentless pursuit of reducing clicks and shortening proofing actions, we’ve made a few improvements on how you interact with the Ziflow dashboard to manage proofs:
And that’s not all. We’ve also made these additional improvements throughout the app:
All in all, this release ends up being one of the biggest since our launch last October. If you’re a Ziflow customer, or on a trial account, these new features are available now (note: some new features do require an Enterprise Edition subscription).
