Questions about this workflow
Is a subscription mandatory?
Full is a one-off purchase that lets you use the version you purchased. The annual updates plan is optional and renews automatically until cancelled.
Is it suitable for a distributed team?
The current mode has one main operator in a local installation. If several people need simultaneous editing, we assess another solution or a Studio project.
Can clients approve photos in an online gallery?
The person managing the work records approvals and revisions in Bastidor. A customer portal, public gallery and online photo selection are not native features.
How does it fit the Makers ecosystem?
