Advantages and disadvantages between Brisque and Trueflow

[EW]

Dear All,

I am student and studying in course about digital workflow. Now I am doing a project.

Does anyone here tell me the advantages and disadvantages between Brisque and Trueflow?

Thanks and have a nice day to all.

Warm regards,
EW

EW,

You may want to study a different workflow then Brisque, it has been discontinued by Kodak and no new versions are planned.

Regards,

Mark

Mark speaks the truth - Brisque will be supported (supposedly) for a few more years, but it's no longer being updated.

Was the comparison your choosing, or was it laid out by an instructor? Just curious.

Hi Mark and SlaveToTheMen,

I know Brisque is no longer being updated, but this comparision title is laid out by my instructor, so I have no way to bargain on the topic.

Would you please give me some hints on this topic ?

Thanks a lot !

It can be tough in this industry to find a person with experience in the two systems you are comparing. I know Brisque and AWS, but don't know jack about Trueflow.

Brisque is a good system. But in some ways is an old technology compared to modern PDF workflows. You will find shops holding on to their Brisque systems since they have made the investment and it does what they need.

About the only thing you could try to do is find two shops, one with Brisque, and one with Trueflow. Then see if you could spend a day at each place and take notes.

I agree with the other post, the instructor seems to be pretty narrow minded to limit you to two workflows. You would be better served to pick 2 or 3 current workflows like AWS Nexus, Trueflow and Prinergy. Then discuss the features of each system.

Next option would be to use the information in these forums to learn a little about the two systems you "have" to write about.

Good luck.
