Gradual Software Introduces PowerSWITCH at Digital Print World in London
Ghent (Belgium), 18 September, 2006 — Gradual Software, specialists in software automation solutions, is presenting PowerSWITCH, the newest member of the company’s growing product line at Digital Print World in London on 17th and 18th October 2006. The company will demonstrate its latest products on stand 528 in conjunction with its distributor Positive Focus. Saskia Desmet, Gradual Software’s Director of International Sales will be on the stand to welcome visitors and discuss opportunities and requirements.
David van Driessche, Gradual Software COO states: “We are delighted to present PowerSWITCH at Digital Print World as promised. This is the high-end workhorse of the SWITCH product line. With its comprehensive scripting and metadata tools, users are able to build a smarter and more efficient workflow that seamlessly integrates with third-party applications and systems. Tests in simulated production environments showed an immediate ROI as well as impressive cost savings in the longer term.”
The SWITCH family of products, which also includes LightSWITCH and FullSWITCH, enables users to implement workflow automation solutions tailored to meet the production needs of individual work environments. PowerSWITCH provides advanced automation features, such as support for scripting and metadata, together with SWITCHclient, a workgroup client that makes it easy to deploy automation for a complete workgroup. SWITCHclient allows anyone on the local network to submit jobs, track their progress, and to intervene when jobs are being held for inspection — directly from their own workstation. This standalone application (not a web-based client) can be installed on workstations throughout the workgroup, with access settings for users and groups configured in PowerSWITCH.
PowerSWITCH is available for immediate purchase for 3599GBP; a fully-functional trial version can be downloaded from www.gradual.com. PowerSWITCH includes 5 SWITCHclient licenses. Additional individual client licenses are available for 75GBP.”
