Portfolio – Draftss vs Digifloat

Not only the designing team at Draftss is highly reliable but the detailed development of the designs also adds to their value.
Portfolio Of Digifloat
The designs in the portfolio of Digifloat are cool but show similarities in appearance. The basic nature of the design is mostly the same. The quality, however, is good but the range is limited and hence the designs are not very diversified in nature. Digifloat offers a completely different service for the designing of logos. This tries to convey the superiority of the service provider in the domain of logo designing. However, the designs might not seem to be very attractive at first look at the portfolio and hence become a little less useful.
—————————————————————————————————————————————–
Quality – Draftss vs Digifloat
Quality at Draftss
Draftss believes in producing great designs & not just good designs. Draftss thus has got a team of designers with each one of the designers holding expertise over some aspect of designs and not all. This makes it easy for Draftss to transfer the request of the design to the designer who is an expert at it and not to the one who is just good at everything. This helps the clients to get every design worked at Draftss as a masterpiece and have the best of quality designs in the industry.
Draftss also serves its clients with amazing customer support. Draftss collaborates with the clients over a number of platforms which makes it easier for clients to collaborate, unlike other platforms. Keeping the clients updated and completely in the loop of the designing process makes it easy & reliable for clients to have the designers at their service. Draftss also lets the clients avail the facility to talk to the designer over the voice call for better understanding and to deliver the best experience for the customer support throughout the process.
Quality at Digifloat
Digifloat provides numerous services and some clients seem to be very happy to receive their services and enjoy working with them. From services like unlimited revisions, being responsive to the feedback, providing assistance and support services to designing multiple graphic design types, fair turnaround, and dedicated designer.
Although providing some add-on services in the packages can be useful at times, providing a dedicated designer is not a very good-looking feature for a service that is competing with service providers like Draftss who are well known to allocate specialized designers for specific tasks. Digifloat also provides 2 design requests at a time in the lowest of the packages which is quite a good feature. Digifloat also offers to provide a dedicated account manager as well. With all these services, there are no hidden costs, contracts, or commitments as per the claim made by the service provider.
—————————————————————————————————————————————–
Design – Draftss vs Digifloat
Designs that are given out to the clients are based on a number of factors. From the quality and skillset of the designers to the expertise of the service provider, everything matters throughout the process of designing. On one hand, where Draftss delivers highly qualitative graphic designs and quick services, Digifloat claims to have the best of the designers available worldwide to assist their clients.
Design at Draftss
Designers at Draftss are dedicated and very attentive to whatever they are working on. Attentiveness and sharpness are the two major skills the designers at Draftss possess. Designers from Draftss seem to pay more close attention to the details of the designs. All the details and expertise of the designers can be clearly judges by having a look at the portfolio with highly refined particulars where you can see how much attention has been put into all the designs by the designing team at Draftss.
Every subscription package of Draftss also comes with an entire creative design team working for the clients. Thus, it becomes easy for the clients to have only the best designer for the task working on it and not someone who possesses expertise in a different domain.
Design at Digifloat
Graphics and Logo Designing at Digifloat is fairly qualitative and has been able to satisfy the existing base of the customers. The designers are good and skilled while the process of the service provider seems to be sorted and smooth. Providing an option of multiple service requests at the same is a significant measure of the aligned structure of the service provider. Also, the separate service for logo designing is great but could have been better if there were more options for the concepts of the logos to be chosen from. The assistance and support service provided by Digifloat also helps to make the designing experience of the clients better adding value to the graphic designing.
—————————————————————————————————————————————–
Development – Draftss vs Digifloat
Development is one of the very rare services that not many of the service providers in the industry offer in addition to graphic designing. Draftss makes it easy for its clients to do more on the same platform. It helps the clients on both the fronts of design as well as web development of the design. On the other hand, Digifloat has got some capabilities in the domain of web development but hardly seems to hold a great level of expertise.
Development at Draftss
Draftss not only designs apps & web UI/UX for startups, founders, entrepreneurs, & businesses but also helps in the development of the designed particulars. This feature is very unique to Draftss and can be found rarely with any competitor agency. Draftss works well on the critical factors of designing, speed, mobile responsiveness, & overall health of the digital platforms of its clients. Further, the list of services of Draftss helps the clients build upon the software programs like HTML/CSS, WordPress, Page Builders, & Elementor, among many others. Thus, providing the solution for the development of the designs & web platforms, Draftss has a big edge here over other similar service providers in the industry. A business may avail both the facilities from Draftss and may not have to look for two different options to get a design from one and get the development done from another.
Development at Digifloat
Digifloat has also got the web development capabilities but in a similar way like it has got other services – with limitations. Digifloat has however been able to manage to add web development service to their offering but without holding much expertise in the domain and thus not being able to cater to the diverse requirements and multiple complexities of the development and web platforms. The languages which Digifloat can work upon are only HTML, CSS, JS, and WordPress.
With this level of expertise and services, a client can expect the development to be simplistic and very minimalistic. Web platforms involving complex features and functionalities may not be able to be catered by the service provider and hence expecting much from the Digifloat become difficult at times.
—————————————————————————————————————————————–
Process – Draftss vs Digifloat
On-boarding
Every business runs on hectic schedules and wasting time is no option for any businessman either. This is the major reason why the tasks of graphic designing and coding which requires extreme attention and carefulness needs to be outsourced.
The on-boarding process at Draftss is therefore very easy! One can go upon the website and fill up the on-boarding form with the subscription package of choice. Best thing here is that Draftss offers you a weekly plan which is rarely available with the competitors. Draftss will get back to you with your dedicated project manager and the design team. Further, do nothing else! Sit back, watch your ideas getting designed, & finalize whenever you think it’s what you want.
The process of onboarding at Digifloat is similarly easy too. One can go upon their website and choose a monthly plan. Sadly, Digifloat has no weekly plans available. Next is to fill up the on-boarding form and start requesting your designs.
Task Submission
Draftss believes in making things easier for the clients and thus it has a channel for all and operates on a number of platforms. Therefore, one can use E-mail, Trello, Slack, WhatsApp, Telegram, and just about every other project management tool that you have been using OR the submission form by Draftss to submit your design tasks. Thus, Draftss makes the submission process very handy & easy for the clients.
However, Digfloat operates only through its dedicated platform. Thus, it accepts the design request only via this channel. This process of task submission makes it a little less handy and less easy for the clients to submit their requests and communicate more frequently.
Revisions
The clients of Draftss are highly satisfied with the services and have been very positive about the graphic designs and development services they’ve been served with. It’s not necessary that the first design Draftss puts before you is the one you like. Therefore, Draftss has a policy to offer unlimited revisions. You don’t like it? No problem! Draftss will revise it.
Digifloat also offers to get as many revisions done as required. Although, the revision process takes additional time taking even longer to complete the task.
Finalizing
At Draftss, until the design is not satisfactory, the design is not finalized! The design is delivered in the most suitable format mentioned upon the platform through email, dropbox, or google drive.
Digifloat delivers all the designs as soon as they’re finalized. Clients can download the files once approved. They offer a fair choice of formats for the designs to be available in.
—————————————————————————————————————————————–
Communication – Draftss vs Digifloat
Communication is a very essential component of the service industry. What is to be conveyed and is understood becomes integral to the service that a client is going to receive. Thus, it is very important for the service providers to have communication channels that are reliable, handy, and effective enough to efficiently convey the information.
Communication at Draftss
Having one platform for collaboration with your team of designers plays a very important role in the smoothness of the design process and delivery of great designs. To provide ease and not confine the clients with limited options, Draftss offers its clients to communicate with the design team over a single chain of E-mails, Slack, WhatsApp, & a number of other project management tools.
This plays a major role in keeping up with the expectations of the clients going ahead in the right direction in close coordination with the clients. The design team is highly responsive & quick to provide the required assistance. Customer support never fails to satisfy and always tries to deliver the expected value out of each package you choose. The expertise of the design team also helps the clients have their specific design solutions delivered on time making their experience better.
Communication at Digifloat
Digifloat claims to offer complete human support and assistance for the services provided to the clients. The communication channels however are managed through Trello and email only which is a limitation. A limitation in the channels of communication is very difficult to have and base your conversations upon. With restricted modes of conversation, clients might feel not very comfortable in sharing the requirements which would further lead to poor output and performance by the design team. It also increases the chance of mistakes and errors which takes more time to be iterated decreasing the total output value of the subscription.
—————————————————————————————————————————————–
Turnaround Time Per Task
When we talk about unlimited designing services packages, time has a very important role to play in the fulfillment of the services and customer experience. Turnaround time is inversely proportional to the number of designs worked as lesser is the turn-around time more is the number of the designs that can be expected by the service provider.
Turnaround at Draftss
Draftss provides a realistic turnaround time for the most common design tasks and for other specific tasks, it depends on the complexity of the design. Although Draftss does not take more than approximately 2-3 days on average to finish most of the graphic design tasks, smaller tasks may be delivered even earlier. Simpler tasks take lesser time, complex tasks take more time. You can checkout the turnaround time for all types of tasks here.
Turnaround at Digifloat
Although the service provider claims to have a turn-around time of 1 business day to 3 business days, many of the services are complex and hence take more time. Thus, a client can usually expect delays based on the complexity, iterations, and revisions. Also, by subscribing to a package that is priced higher, a client might get an option for multiple requests and thus be able to minimize or change the turnaround time as a whole regardless of the turnaround time per design.
—————————————————————————————————————————————–
Whitelabel – Draftss vs Digifloat
White Labeling Services at Draftss
White labeling services provided by Draftss is a big add-on service for its partners. New businesses are often dealing with strict budgets and shortages of resources.

—————————————————————————————————————————————–
What to Choose?
Draftss and Digifloat have been fairly good service providers and the review was definitely a competitive one at many levels. The service provided by Digifloat has been highly able to make up to the level of Draftss to some level however pricing and limitations it has got on its services make up a dilemma for the clients to choose Digifloat over Draftss.
Draftss seems to make the process of communication highly smooth and easy by allowing the clients to communicate through a number of channels. Clients always have an option to talk to the team over a call which is not available with Digifloat.
In addition, Draftss allocates a complete team of designers where specific designers can perform specific tasks while Digifloat may compromise on it by allocating just one designer for all the tasks to cater for a client. Thus, the close attention & specific details Draftss & the designers cater to gives it an extra edge over Digifloat.
Also, the subscription packages of Draftss are highly attractive and affordable in comparison with Digifloat. Theplans are also only monthly at Digifloat and hence might not be a good option for smaller projects and requirements of shorter duration.
Weekly subscription packages can be used to get designs quickly without holding on to the long-term packages being left unused for the rest of the time and thus stay a burden on the budget. A number of clients tend to fail to be able to get complete value out of their monthly packages because of the less requirement they have for the designs to be worked out.
Therefore, the quick service and keeping up with the promises make Draftss a great choice for clients of diverse backgrounds and fields. Also, the wide range of services & very easy on-boarding with Draftss makes it a one-stop & easy solution for the business, startups, & entrepreneurs to go forth with their highly affordable & diversified subscription packages.
