Hi @ma kaiyue 

Most of the features that you have in workflow, you will have the same features in flow.

Although certain features as rollback is missing in Flows but that can be compensated by having additional logics and subflow.

Flow is the new way of working, which makes configuration much easier and smoother.

HI @ma kaiyue  Not all 100%, there is no roll back action in flow designer yet, but flow is more matured now compare to earlier versions, It depends on your requirment, I would say start with flow designer for all new catalog items and slowly replace for existing ones
