GMG CoZone: The ultimate content approval solution.GMG CoZone is a cloud-based approval solution for agencies, designers, marketing departments, prepress companies and everyone else involved in media production. All project stakeholders can easily review the original design data in a softproof view and annotate layout, content and colors, including all the necessary measurements. Different versions can be reviewed side-by-side or even on top of each other, as on a light table. Once the content is approved, and a hard proof is required, CoZone can additionally send the data to a connected GMG ColorProof system. Thus, CoZone bundles all approval and proofing processes within a single platform, offering seamless remote proofing that completes the correction and approval process with legally binding contract proofs. 

Sold as SaaS, GMG CoZone can easily be branded to reflect other corporate identities, including a custom domain. The intuitive user interface makes it easy to immediately start working and manage all corrections and approvals quickly. Effective collaboration, away from numerous e-mails and commented PDFs, can be easy to achieve – with the right platform. 

“Color is perhaps the most important consideration in the mind of any designer,” concludes Varone. “GMG makes sure that the designer’s intent is, indeed, what is reproduced. We look forward to showing how our tools can make color management effortless.”
