LAS VEGAS — March 6, 2007 — At the annual Photo Marketing Association
conference, SeeFile Software LLC (booth K126) is introducing the third
generation of its web-based creative collaboration tool, which allows
instant web sharing, annotation, and online sales. In contrast to the
hosted solutions that are prevalent in the market, SeeFile allows the
individual lab owner or professional photographer to take control of their
online sales.
Unlike the hosted providers, SeeFile running locally permits large JPEG,
RAW and other media files simply to be saved to a local hard disk – the
software automatically creates the thumbnails and watermarked previews, and
displays them in a simple HTTP web interface. The files can then be
remotely accessed from anywhere on the Internet via standard browsers like
Safari, Firefox and Internet Explorer. SeeFile 3.0 also introduces a range
of advanced functions, such as side-by-side image comparisons, onscreen
annotations, and color-coded collections for each user. The Athentech
Perfectly Clear technology is simply another function that can be applied
to any image on the system.

“We’ve been thrilled with the market’s response to previous versions of the
software,” said Sam Bogoch, CEO of SeeFile. “We’re excited to introduce
this new feature-packed version, which also adds a version of the most
powerful image correction technology on the market – Perfectly Clear.”
Athentech Quote
“We=92re delighted that SeeFile has selected our award winning algorithms to
give SeeFile 3.0 users accurate, visually pleasing, and automatic image
correction,” said Brad Malcolm, CEO of Athentech. “Perfectly Clear is the
only technology in today’s digital world able to offer Real Color, making
images much more lifelike and vibrant. The result being more images are
both printed and shared.”
SeeFile User Quote
One user of the software, Igor Perchuk, president of Image Source
Productions, has been able to replace both clumsy FTP transfers and limited
email attachments with SeeFile. “My customers are able to review and
download proofs if I allow them to, upload their own graphical files to the
same folders, and communicate approvals with a click. It’s a phenomenal way
to handle a range of client communication issues that in the past, have
really limited small graphics firms like mine. I’ve been looking for
something like this for years.”
=46ree Upgrades Available
SeeFile 3.0 is a free release for owners of earlier versions of the
software with an annual upgrade contract, in keeping with the company’s
“no-surprise” policy.
