EskoArtwork announces the release of WebCenter 10, a new version of its online collaboration and approval tool for the packaging and print supply chain. "Initial feedback and reactions from beta customers indicate that WebCenter 10 will add to the application's reputation as the most effective online approval tool for the packaging and print market," comments Jijo Dominic, EskoArtwork product manager, WebCenter. "From the early stages of software development, we worked with our customers to ensure that the new release meets their expectations."
WebCenter has hundreds of installations and many thousands of users worldwide. It serves a wide range of industry players such as packaging converters, commercial printers, pre-press service bureaus, global consumer product companies, and highly regulated pharmaceutical companies.
With the packaging and print supply chain always under pressure to develop new value-add services, WebCenter 10 now addresses additional market needs. The straightforward user interface, the powerful staged approval support, the project management tools and the tighter integration with the Automation Engine all make WebCenter the logical choice for online collaboration and approval in the packaging and printing industry.
WebCenter helps securely manage and automate approval cycles. It comes with a fast and accurate online viewing tool with unique viewing and compare features focused on the needs of the packaging and print industry. WebCenter users report lead-time reduction by up to 25%, simply by replacing the majority of hard copy proof iterations by online reviewing and approval cycles. Less hardcopy proofs shipped to various stakeholders equally has an important positive effect on the environmental footprint of the packaging development process.
"Globalization and regulatory compliance remain manifest and persistent trends in the fast moving consumable (FMCG) business. As a consequence, the packaging industry is in need of innovative solutions to streamline the packaging supply chain,” comments Bernard Zwaenepoel, senior vice president software business at EskoArtwork.
