Flexi Sign To Signlab

[ytry]

Anybody switch from Flexi to Signlab? How easy or hard was it to learn to the new software?

I switched years ago, during SL 5 release. It was fairly easy you just need to learn which menu the tools / features are located. I haven't needed to worry about it in a couple years but at the time I switched over Sign lab had a feature that you could "Emulate" other programs tool locations.

I can look tomorrow morning and see if that feature is still in SL10

Gary Wiant what are you using for your RIP?

I'm not saying do or don't but just curious as to why you want to switch...

Once you know one you can learn the other easy enough. It is all the same box of tools just rearranged these days. I went the opposite and went from SignLab to Flexi on the cloud and have been happier than a pig in mud now that I have all the bells and whistles.

We tried signlab for about a month and went back to flexi.
Flexi is very intuitive but signlab you need to learn a new 'program', not very intuitive.
Signlab tech support is good but like everyone else after some time they begin charging you for it.

Been using signlab since inception. I am very able in flexi, all adobe products and corel. Signlab and corel are my go to. You can customize your tools any way you like in sl and it has many bells and whistles. Solid program.

Tom I'm using Signlab as my Rip, I've been very happy with it until I got my JV 300 with 8 color, it's not bad but needs some tweaking.

I disagree on sign lab not being intuitive I think signlab is very straight forward.

I would not recommend doing that. I went from signlab to Flexi, best move i ever made. Flexi has a lot more bells and whistles. I would try to get a demo or something from signlab before i forked up the money to switch.
