Does Ziflow have hidden storage fees like Frame.io?

No. Ziflow provides transparent pricing with no hidden storage fees, no forced upgrades, no collaborator fees, and no unanticipated costs. Frame.io's removal of its Archived storage tier has left many teams facing steep, unexpected bills. With Ziflow, what you see is what you pay.

Can Ziflow handle more than just video files?

Yes. While Frame.io is focused on video content, Ziflow supports 1,200+ formats including video, images, websites, PSDs, audio, HTML5, and 3D files. Ziflow enables multi-asset campaign reviews in a single canvas, allowing you to review all creative types together.

Does Ziflow require Workfront or other software to work?

No. Ziflow is a best-of-breed standalone platform, not a bolt-on. With Frame.io, you need Workfront to unlock advanced proofing features, or a separate app to integrate with other platforms. Ziflow integrates natively with Adobe CC, Asana, Monday.com, Wrike, Jira, Slack, Drive, Dropbox, and other tools you already use.

Does Ziflow have automated workflows?

Yes. Ziflow offers advanced workflow automation with parallel/sequential stages, logic-based routing, and SLA-based triggers that scale across departments and projects. Frame.io has no built-in workflow engine—reviews must be coordinated manually.

What is Ziflow's uptime guarantee?

Ziflow delivers 99.99% uptime with global infrastructure and published SLAs, designed for high availability across large teams. Frame.io has reports of session timeouts and auto-logouts and does not share public uptime metrics.
