Since I have never used all of IDimager’s power (similar to most people only ever using a fraction of the capabilities of Microsoft Word), I’m taking a look at Photo Supreme to see it is a possible replacement for my usage patterns. Sadly yesterday’s announcement felt all too familiar and not what I have come to expect. It made IDI stand out in a market dominated by big software giants who bought, crippled then abandoned software. I have always had a lot of respect for Hert and his responsiveness to bugs and feature requests. I can only echo what someone else posted: These people have been thrown into a pit.
However, for professional photographers who work with RAW format images, then IDimager will soon not be able to handle images produced by new camera models. I wish you luck with Photo Supreme, but regrettably it’s not a professional standard product IMO.īecause I tend to work mostly with JPG images, I’ll probably be able to carry on using IDimager for some time to come. Well that’s a real shame because you have killed off one of the best DAM systems a working professional could ask for and replaced it with a toy. IDimager is a serious Digital Asset Management (DAM) tool, and Photo Supreme, at first glance, has far less functionality so for many people, Photo Supreme is nowhere near an acceptable replacement. Needless to say, I’m not very happy about this, and neither are a lot of other IDimager customers. Fast forward a couple of months, and now it has killed off IDimager. My immediate reaction was WTF? Whilst I had been aware of the Photo Supreme product, last time I looked, a few months ago, it was for the Mac, and there was no whisper of a Windows version being made available. They don’t offer an identical feature set so I recommend all IDimager V5 users to first try Supreme to see if it fits their need before they decide to make the switch. Photo Supreme is a different product when compared to IDimager V5. Yesterday I read a message from the developer that said:
I occasionally visit the IDimager support forums, just to see if there are any announcements, or tips and tricks being posted. It’s now up to version 5, and I’ve been very happy with it. One of my hobbies is photography, and my main tool for managing my digital photos is IDimager.
