Adaptive are pleased to announce a new promotion that offers those users that have Enfocus Switch products maintenance the opportunity to purchase PitStop Connect 10 and save £635! PitStop Connect builds bridges between graphic designers, printers, and publishers
Too often, the delivery of files causes hassle both on the production and on the creative side. What is missing is efficient communication between all parties. That is precisely what PitStop Connect offers. With PitStop Connect, users can better 'connect' with their customers. It allows the user to easily set-up a single gateway for file transmission between graphic designers and themselves. All types of files can be delivered, including the metadata that are provided along with the file, such as an order identification number, quantity, or format. It ensures that all files the user receives comply with their specifications and are transferred directly into their workflow.
Users can create Connectors in a few steps using a simple interface. Their customers simply place these Connectors on their desktop, and drag-and-drop files into them. There is no need for the user to train customers in utilising the tool. Moreover, there is no limit in the number of Connectors: the user can create as many as they want for as many customers as they'd like. No time is wasted in making phone calls or sending files back-and-forth for last-minute adjustments. Because of the greater control over incoming files and the reduced need for manual interventions, cycle time is considerably reduced. The inclusion of metadata also allows for a greater level of automation.
What's new in PitStop Connect 10?
Enhanced security
PitStop Connect 10 integrates the Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP) for the transmission of files. This industry-proven protocol means that file transmission is now more secure than ever before.
Automatic update of connectors
As a printer or publisher, users regularly need to update their delivery settings and preflight criteria when making changes in their production workflow. PitStop Connect 10 automatically updates these settings and distributes them to all installed Connectors. This ensures that all stakeholders in the delivery chain are working with the same information and that all parties use the latest specifications.
Compatible with the latest standards
PitStop Connect 10 is compatible with the latest preflight and correction technology in PitStop Pro 10, such as Preflight Profiles and Action Lists, as well as with the latest PDF standards, such as PDF/A for archiving and PDF/X-4 for printing.
Better use of available information
When using PitStop Connect 10 together with Switch 10, the intelligent metadata fields see to it that only relevant and personalised information is shown in the Connector. This metadata is also available through integration with existing databases (such as MIS and ERP systems). This helps users provide a more personalised service to their customers.
