Roland DG Australia has announced that the industry-acclaimed Flexi software from SA International (SAi), the leading provider of solutions for the professional signmaking, wide-format digital printing and CNC machining industries, is now available via annual subscription.
SAi's popular print and sign making software, FlexiSIGN PRO, offers a design, RIP and print-to-cut workflow while FlexiDESIGN includes all design features of Flexi and is ideal for use on design stations. Subscribing to software presents new advantages in terms of cost control, while also ensuring customers always benefit from having the latest updates. 
Subscribers also benefit from the Cloud window that links locally-installed software to the Cloud to enable file storage, image sourcing and other web-based services. The SAi Cloud mobile app enables on-the-move Job Report viewing, and works with Android and iPhone devices. Once installed, the software packages will update themselves for as long as the subscriptions are maintained.
"As well as the advantage of knowing that you're using the latest versions of SAi's software, our new subscription-based software options allow customers to eliminate a major capital investment and incur a low operational cost," said Mark Blundell, CEO, SAi. "This initiative will enable a broader base of companies to utilise the benefits of Flexi and Flexi Design software to streamline their production and offer increased quality signage to their customers."
Full versions of the software packages are offered separately and can now be acquired from the cloud. Each software package is available in more than a dozen languages and comprises all tools, features and add-ons, as well as full support.
Used around the world, Flexi software delivers design and production tools to meet customer demands quickly and easily. The software, which can drive up to five printers simultaneously, provides a complete client-server RIP solution package with multiple queues, job tiling and nesting, and colour profiling. Files can be sent to remote SAi Flexi Production Manager, PhotoPRINT or other RIP software including Onyx, RasterLink and Roland VersaWorks®.
"We have been an SAi partner for many years and the Flexi software has always been popular amongst Roland users", commented Greg Stone, Sales Manager at Roland DG Australia. "We are excited about the benefits and flexibility that this subscription offering provides".
