MetaCommunications Releases Free Version of New Online Proofing & Review Software

May 3, 2011 - PRLog -- IOWA CITY, IA - MetaCommunications today announced the immediate availability of its new product, Approval Manager 2011, available in both Standard and free Express editions. For the first time Approval Manager is available separately from the  MetaCommunications Workgroups 2011 suite! Approval Manager 2011 includes hundreds of features for automating online proofing and review for marketing, creative and production environments.

Approval Manager 2011 is unlike traditional soft proofing tools in that it focuses on automating the workflow of your team and how it interacts with reviewers to gather approvals, feedback, or variation selection.

"The release of our new standalone editions of Approval Manager will, for the first time, make our technology available to a much wider spectrum of the market.” said Robert T. Long, President of MetaCommunications. "The Express edition is completely free and includes more functionality than most of our competitors’ paid products. We think that along with the competitively priced Standard edition, we have a very compelling offer.”
