GoSmarter Posted June 14, 2020 Share Posted June 14, 2020 Love the Affinity suite. Been a user from the AP Mac beta. Now I’m worried. A DAM persona would be the missing link in the suite, and there seems to be a business case here, so something might be holding back. But what do I know about Serif strategy and implementation? For now, others gets my money. And that is sad, since I really like the Affinity suite. Hannibal 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoSmarter Posted June 16, 2020 Author Share Posted June 16, 2020 There are. My point was purchasing DAM from Serif if and when available. I’m still a happy camper with the Affinity suite. AffinityMakesMeSmile 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimCheshire Posted July 19, 2021 Share Posted July 19, 2021 I am about ready to jump ship and go elsewhere. I have been with Affinity Photo from the beginning, and I here the same story over and over again. The DAM is coming . We are working on it. Ya right!

LondonSquirrel Posted July 19, 2021 Share Posted July 19, 2021 There are some good DAMs available which are either free or cheap. While a DAM from Affinity would be nice to have, it is not the top of my wish list. Lack of an Affinity DAM does not make be want to jump ship from Affinity.

I've been using Neofinder for the best part of 20 years and have all my external HD's, DVD's, CD's even Zip disks from the 90's (they still work) catalogued with Neofinder - I have total confidence that if an old client wants to dig out some old artwork for a re-work or re-run, I can find it in seconds in Neofinder, whether it's still accessible on a 20 year old DVD is another matter - but I'll give it a thumbs up Quote Mac Pro Cheese-grater (Early 2009) 2.93 GHz 6-Core Intel Xeon 48 GB 1333 MHz DDR3 ECC Ram, Sapphire Pulse Radeon RX 580 8GB GDDR5, Ugee 19" Graphics Tablet Monitor Triple boot via OCLP 1.2.1 - Mac OS Monterey 12.7.1, Sonoma 14.1.1 and Mojave 10.14.6 Affinity Publisher, Designer and Photo 1.10.5 - 2.2.1 www.bingercreative.co.uk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
