I'm really surprised Artwork-Systems is leading this poll. I would have thought Prinergy, Rampage and Apogee would have been ahead of it. Or do AWS users just vote like Chicagoans???

Do all these workflows do basically the same thing?

I have heard of Prinergy and Rampage before, but am not exactly sure what they do.

Yes as in they all incorporate in one way or the other PDF Generation, Preflight, , Auto Correction, Trapping, Color Management, Imposing, and Screening, etc.

It's all done a little different based on MFG. Some may be an Adobe based RIP and some Harlequin based RIP, some ROOM, and some are NORM.

I'm not really surprise Artwork Systems is leading the poll because they really do have the best products but not the best price! The new Odystar PDF workflow are amazing and powerful! With the NEO PDF editor and Concentric Screening at 340 lpi, this is hard to beat quality!

Yeah!

Seems I'm in the bottom line but Trueflow has a good interpreter (Adobe) that makes me go to sleep without a worry.

A little late to the party, but Im a Trueflow user. It's fabulous, and I've had very few minor road bumbs and no major collisions.
I havent any experience with the others, therefore I have no valid comparisons.
