Kodak has launched version 10.0 of web-based Kodak Prinergy Insite Portals that provide authorized users with 24/7 access from anywhere. With version 10.0, Kodak has upgraded the Kodak Prinergy Insite Prepress Portal (IPP) and the Kodak Prinergy Insite Creative Workflow (ICW) with multiple new enhancements. This includes improved usability thanks to collapsible Job Group lists in IPP to reduce the amount of scrolling.
The Prinergy Insite Prepress Portal allows printers and their customers to submit jobs, track progress, collaborate on changes, and proof and approve work. The Prinergy Insite Creative Workflow supports creative design/content creation, reviews, revisions, approvals and asset management within a tightly controlled, task-based process.
The newly implemented two-factor authentication at login safeguards users’ data and Personally Identifiable Information (PII). OAuth (open authorization) for Microsoft Office 365 is now integrated into IPP and ICW for greater security. And overall, the increased security within the IPP and ICW infrastructure helps to prevent malicious attacks.
In addition, the Insite Gateway plug-in (released in version 9.5) establishes a direct connection between the Adobe Creative Suite and the Prinergy Insite Prepress Portal. This allows PDF files created with the creative software applications to be transferred easily, quickly and accurately to a job on the IPP server.
“The release of the Prinergy Insite Portals version 10.0 means all essential components and optional add-ons of the Kodak Prinergy Platform are now up to date and consistent. The new version provides printers with increased performance, helps them meet customer requirements faster and error-free and makes the digital infrastructure for collaboration with customers and creative professionals more secure,” stated Jim Barnes, Kodak’s chief IT omplementation officer. “This launch is further evidence that Kodak continues to support its customers in the printing industry with the continuous development of its software solutions as a trusted partner.”
