Christopher Fritz Senior IT Supporter Chose Egnyte Egnyte has a much easier management console and it's easier to share files and create a directory of files etc. The overview is more simplified.

Brandon Wells, MPA Director of Volunteer Engagement Chose Egnyte Egnyte's storage capacity was well beyond the capabilities of DropBox at our budget.

We went straight to Zeplin off of numerous recommendations and didn't look back. We have had a great experience with Zeplin. Incentivized Helpful? Raphael Sanguinete Creative Director Chose Zeplin Zeplin is more focused on the handoff than in the creation itself.

Carlos Eduardo de Souza Co-founder & Manager Chose Zeplin Zeplin is great to inspect and share user interfaces, specifications and assets, perfect for developers.

Hernán Silva Senior Front-end developer Chose Zeplin For my company needs, Zeplin comes as the best tool in its category.

User Testimonials
	Egnyte	Zeplin
Likelihood to Recommend	If you're simply sharing and syncing across devices and don't care about granular security permissions, this is an easy win. If you're needing more control over the ability to restrict users from deleting folders, sharing folders, and allowing only certain groups to be able to view a folder, this can work but will ultimately give you arthritis as you'll end up having to perform a multitude of clicks for a task that should be able to be done in a fraction of the action. Have a folder template that allows for the first two levels of folders to be view only and the third level allowing file/folder creation and deletion? Have fun setting each of the third level folder's permissions-- they should give out free wrist braces. When discussed with their engineers about this function, a suggested $28,000 custom script was suggested. I don't believe them when they say that they haven't heard of other customers wishing to assign rights to multiple folders-- Something any sort of real admin would require. It simply isn't important to them, which is fine. The current ability Mykii Liu IT Support Engineer Read full review	I still have some issues, especially with color integration between the style guide and also project. When we update the colors, it's not automatically sync to every project. Aside from that, zeplin solves my problem for hand-off design from design to developer. I set zeplin is source of truth design file Incentivized D Hendrik Mulyana Lead Designer Read full review
Pros	Drive map tool on Windows and flexibility on client configuration, can change drive letters fairly easily if needed. New user setup is straightforward and permissions not too difficult to set up and assign. Support has been fairly responsive and helpful with issues as they have come up. Incentivized Ian Hansen Client Success Manager Read full review	Provides dimensions across iOS, Android and Web which saves developers from a lot of guess and check when implementing designs Allows for easy download of digital design assets for developers to easily organize and implement Great user experience in terms of the product itself and a great value for your money Automatically generates CSS for web designs which is AMAZING! Incentivized Brad Henderson Co-Founder/Chief Janitor Read full review
Cons	We often have issues with WebEdit, changes not saving/overwriting No functionality to drag and drop files/folders within the UI, can only move things by going through Move > Select location When previewing Word files in the browser, tracked changes are not shown so there can be misunderstandings when quickly reviewing documents Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	It would be better if it has a dedicated web application It's not the easiest tool to learn and start working with It would be awesome if it had more features turning it into an all-around tool for mockups and prototypes Incentivized Raphael Sanguinete Creative Director Read full review
Likelihood to Renew	We found that usage of Egnyte in our supported clients, with sufficient bandwidth, provided all the features and stability we required. The billing setup was fair and the support provided was ample for end users and well as our in house admins. There was a concern about high usage clients but this was taken into account during the vetting process. Incentivized Evan Wilson I.T. Service Specialist Read full review	Great tool Incentivized Hernán Silva Senior Front-end developer Read full review
Usability	Really easy to use the interface. The web browser is very intuitive and I have not had any notable issues with this. It's easy to work on documents as a team, and the only issues we have to tend to come with Apple apps and downloading large files to WebEdit. It's very similar to the filing systems that come on Apple and Windows devices so not a steep learning curve. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Zeplin's component management and style guide help us to be consistent across whole product and it so easy to use for non-technical person. It is now easy to collaboration for designes between different teams like stackholders, product owner, UI/UX, developers and testers. Now there is only one point of reference is Zeplin so it is so easy to get details without asking designer or developer again and again. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Performance	Egnyte works very well across all platforms and as an add-on to other programs. Load time is close to nothing. Reports can be made in no time as well. All in all no performance issues. We can see that it depends on the local network connection. If you're running with fiber there won't be any issues. Incentivized Christopher Fritz Senior IT Supporter Read full review	No answers on this topic
Support Rating	I never had to reach out to customer support for Egnyte. I don't know any coworkers who have had to reach out to Egnyte for support either. As far as I am concerned, the support team is doing a good job since I have not had to reach out to them. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Zeplin has classic support with a chat from the website. It's working fine, and we're also getting the support needed when needed. However, Zeplin is very good at closing the incidents and moving on. It was a while ago we had a case with their support so that it might have improved since then. Incentivized Christopher Fritz Head of Global IT Read full review
Alternatives Considered	Egnyte syncs with Windows machines better than any competitor I have come across. The service focuses on just this platform and their in depth focus shows in the end result. Google is not really made with Windows in mind. Box is cumbersome and the web portal is not easy to use. SharePoint sync to PC is terrible. WP William Press Cloud Project Manager Read full review	Out of all of the products that I have used to support design-to-development handoffs, Zeplin is my favorite. It’s pretty lightweight and easy to use (once you get the hang of it). Zeplin also has a smooth interface and is, generally, clearer to use than other tools, such as InVision. Plus, all of the plug-ins that you can use with Zeplin have supported the design-development relationship and workflows in which I’ve been involved in more efficient, clear, and effective ways than I’ve seen with any other product. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Return on Investment	The promising advantage of Egnyte is that user can access their files from the cloud anywhere without any cumbrance like connecting to VPN or other third-party soft wares. No risk of data loss. The platform is lacking in changing the parent administrator of a folder as if one person is the administrator of the file or folder and when needs to change it becomes clunky and does not supports it properly. Incentivized Brandon Smith Business Consultant Read full review	We're using the free plan, so it fits in our needs, although we're limited to create only one project at a time Sketch has some plugins that offers exactly what Zeplin does, for free The integration with design apps (Sketch, Photoshop, XD) and collaboration (Slack and Trello) helps our team to better communicate and be notified on every update Incentivized Carlos Eduardo de Souza Co-founder & Manager Read full review
