Alpha Customer Success Story Gilbert Sangari, Publisher - San Jose Magazine “Imagine someone coming to you with what sounds like a publisher’s dream and wants you to be the guinea pig. Well, this wasn’t a dream but a dream come true. It took us literally half the normal time to do our October issue. Not to mention handling the files back and forth between the magazine and pre-press via e-mail, not jazz disks. You can now have your cake and eat it too."
