Evaluate proofing and selection flow for your real job types.

Look at whether the platform supports the level of control you want around downloads and access.

Useful when client picks and downloads should stay close to the gallery.

Relevant when approvals or signatures are part of the broader studio flow.

Helpful when branding and privacy control both influence the buying decision.

Workflow consideration 3

Make the comparison with your niche in mind
