Victor Watts, Proof-it-Online's senior vice president of sales, said: "Companies have made investments in print management and advertisement insertion software, as well as order entry systems.
To complement and streamline existing workflows and help our customers exploit their investments in current technology, we developed an enterprise approval management system that seamlessly integrates with their existing applications." Kym Thill, advertising integration specialist for The Arizona Republic Newspaper and AZcentral.com, commented: "With our new online proofing system - Shoomproof powered by Proof-it-Online - integrated in to our existing ad management system, overall workflow has become significantly more effective.
We are seeing a marked efficiency on the sides of both our artists and our advertisers.
Both are responding to their proofs and taking action in a much timely manner.
There is a definite time savings in the processing of each ad." In support of Proof-it-Online's rollout of Agility, the company has hired additional staff, including senior implementation manager, Chris Koury.
Watts said: "With the increase in adoption that we are seeing and to ensure a smooth integration of our new system with our customers' existing systems, Chris Koury has joined our team to work directly with enterprise customers.
Chris brings more than 20 years' experience as a publishing and creative services industries veteran, further enabling us to assist our customers with technical issues and facilitate on-boarding needs." Agility's capability to integrate is claimed to enable companies to streamline the approval process by pulling approval data in to multiple workflow applications for collaboration, production and tracking purposes.
Through an automated process, valuable, detailed information, such as contact data, proof content, file names, deadlines, approval time stamps and status can be shared between systems.
Agility is offered as hosted software on Proof-it-Online's application servers, or on a dedicated server at the company's data centre.
Pricing is based on volume with no significant costs in training or implementation, added the company.
