SEATTLE, WA and VICTORIA, BC — (Marketwired) — 09/25/14 — , today announced two photo editing and management products which provide the richest combination of features and value available in one solution. Until today, photographers and companies had to buy an expensive suite of products to be able to import, edit and manage their photos. Now, ACDSee provides all of these features in one easy to use, cost-effective product. ACDSee Pro 8 and ACDSee 18 will include the company–s patented technology and user friendly design which have made ACDSee the products of choice for over 50 million users worldwide.
ACDSee Pro 8 is the most complete solution for the enhancement and control of image production for professional photographers. The standard version, ACDSee 18, gives any photographer the high-end tools they need to produce professional quality photos and manage their photo library. ACDSee customers can manage and share up to hundreds of thousands of images while maintaining a fast, quality experience. Both products allow users to experience the utmost control and power over the display and sharing of their images without compromising privacy.
“Due to advanced smartphone lenses and affordable high-end cameras, there has been a transformation in the way people are capturing and sharing memories,” said Doug Vanderkerkhove, Founder and CEO of ACD Systems. “At ACD Systems we–ve noticed the great divide between the high-end photography software and low-end is beginning to disappear and the market needs to adapt. We–re launching products that offer our customers a feature-rich solution at a tremendous value, with the same quality they–ve always trusted from ACDSee.”
“I–ve covered five Olympic games, 25 world championships, and dozens of grand prix events and have used ACDSee to process, edit, manage, and archive the photos from each,” said Serge Timacheff, official photographer for the International Fencing Federation (FIE). “Standard media management software isn–t robust-enough to handle important event photos, and the suite products are cumbersome, confining, and expensive. With ACDSee, I–ve processed over two million fencing images and it–s the product I trust for workflow at these important events. It–s an excellent tool and I recommend it to people worldwide.”
