K4 Guides Northstar to a New Collaborative Workflow
December 14, 2006
Just a few years ago, the Secaucus, N.J., publisher of numerous industry-leading travel magazines and meeting guides was in need of a new editorial production system. The company had run a Quark Publishing System for years, and even though it considered upgrading its existing software, the project was never realized. Cost estimates were close to $1 million, and, after all, Northstar’s publications were still getting out, albeit inefficiently.
In December 2004, Northstar’s staff watched a demo of SoftCare K4, and they liked what they saw. Northstar Production Director Robert said one of the system’s immediate attractions was its SQL database, which was a good fit for Northstar’s existing setup. Ultimately, Northstar concluded that switching to an entirely new SoftCare K4 system would actually be easier and more cost-effective than doing a QPS upgrade.
