ZS Spin View vs Sirv
Sirv and ZS Spin View both put 360° spins on Shopify product pages, but they are different kinds of tools. Sirv is an image manager: a media library, CDN and product gallery that shows images, videos, 3D models and spins you upload. ZS Spin View is a spin maker and viewer: it builds the spin for you from photos, a phone video or one photo with AI. Here is how they compare, so you can pick the one that fits.

When Sirv is the better choice
- You want one tool for all product media. Sirv is a full image manager: it syncs images between Sirv and Shopify in both directions, serves them from a global CDN in next-gen formats (AVIF, WebP) and streams video with HLS.
- You want to replace your theme's product gallery. Sirv's custom gallery has more than 100 options — grid, thumbnails, full screen — with spins, videos and 3D models in the same gallery.
- You already shoot professional spins, including multi-row (up-and-down) spins, which Sirv's help docs cover, and want them in a managed media library.
- You upload images in bulk: the listing highlights automated upload workflows for thousands of images.
When ZS Spin View is the better choice
- Three ways to make a spin in one app: a photo set (up to 120 frames), a phone video (MP4 or MOV under 90 seconds, 24–72 frames), or one product photo with AI.
- AI builds a real 3D model (GLB) and renders a 36-frame spin from it. You can also add that model to the product for Shopify's "View in your space" AR.
- Selling features in the viewer: a spin per colour variant, hotspots, pinch / zoom, extra views as tabs, and hover spins on collection cards.
- Re-use the spin: export it as an MP4, Instagram Reel, square post or GIF, up to 1080p.
- Works inside PageFly and GemPages pages (tested), and fires a Shopify Flow trigger when a spin is published.
- A free plan for real spins from photos or video.
In short: if you don't have spin photos yet and want the app to make them, ZS Spin View is built for that. If you have media already and want to manage and serve all of it, Sirv is.

Questions
- Can I use Sirv and ZS Spin View together?
- They do different jobs, so you can: Sirv for your image library, CDN and gallery, and ZS Spin View to make spins from a video or one photo. Check that both don't place a spin in the same spot on the product page.
- Does Sirv make 360° spins from a video or with AI?
- Its Shopify App Store listing does not mention either; it describes uploading spins you have made to your Sirv account. ZS Spin View makes spins from a photo set, a phone video or one photo with AI.
- Is ZS Spin View an image CDN?
- No. ZS Spin View is a 360° spin maker and viewer. It loads spin frames lazily, but it does not replace your product gallery or serve your other product images.
- Which one is cheaper?
- ZS Spin View has a free plan for spins from photos or video; AI spins start at $7.99/month. Sirv's Shopify connector is $25/month or $200/year after a 30-day free trial. Which is better value depends on whether you need Sirv's full media management.
Free plan, no credit card. Your first spin can be live in a few minutes.
