How can Connect help your team

What exactly is Connect? What do you get when you buy Connect? Well, Connect is a desktop app, which is previously known as suitcase Fusion or TeamSync. And Connect also includes a cloud platform at no additional cost, and this cloud platform syncs with the desktop app. So if you visit connect dot extensive dot com, your existing connect suitcase or Teams sync logins will enable you to access Connect's online platform. The cloud and desktop app sync immediately enabling you to choose which platform you prefer to work So what exactly is the difference between the two? Well, the desktop app is required for you to activate fonts. This is the mechanism that tells your computer to activate a font locally on your machine. Even as we transition into more cloud functionality, A desktop app of some kind will most likely always be required to enable activation. The local app also also gives you the benefit of locally caching all of your fonts so you can work if you lose internet connectivity, like Taylor over in her in her ice storm right now. The desktop app also connects with your Adobe Creative Cloud by leveraging local plugins. These plugins enable creative cloud products to auto activate fonts. You've ever opened an Adobe document and had a missing font, you'll immediately realize the power of auto activation with these plugins. Our customers tell us that each auto activation saves them thirty to sixty seconds of hunting for fonts manually. And lastly, the desktop app is a great tool for managing your font diverse. On the web app, you'll have similar ability to manage and organize your fonts with the added benefit that it works anywhere where you have Internet access. The web app is where you'll find most of the team sharing functionality, enhanced searching, and font pairing. For admins, you'll find user controlled permissions, folder sharing, single sign on analytics and font licensing here as well. Speaking, frankly, much of our future development is primarily focused on the web experience. So if you're looking for the latest font management experience, we recommend defaulting to using the web client.
