About GlobalVision

GlobalVision is an automated quality control platform that proofreads, checks, inspects, and verifies text, graphic, barcode, Braille, and spelling, to eliminate printed errors on packaging before products go to market.

Available for access via the Web or server, or installation on Mac or PC, GlobalVision enables the inspection, comparison and verification of any type of content including text, graphics, print, barcodes, Braille, and spelling. The platform - which can be integrated into the packaging workflows of consumers goods companies, food & beverage producers, printing firms, pharmaceutical companies, and more - helps customers to increase proofreading accuracy, efficiency and speed, by checking artwork in seconds rather than hours or days to ensure that packaging is printed error-free.

    Improving Efficiency in Labelling Artwork Creation

    Reviewed on 3/5/2020

    The demo environment that we've been using is much faster and easier to use than the old web-based version we currently have on our Macs. Support for issues with slow downs and the server not working have been fixed usually in less than a day's time, which is great since we have a high volume of artwork most of the time. It's been very easy dealing with just about everyone from GlobalVision and even extending our temporary license for the demo environment has been effortless due to highly responsive customer service folks. I couldn't imagine not using the software at this point as it has made such a huge positive impact on our department.

    Pros

    My team creates artwork for a lot of packaging inserts, which tend to be text heavy. ProofWare allows us to more easily detect style/formatting errors prior to being sent to ur proofreading department and save time on revisions. It also easily detects if content is missing in packing insert artwork when compared to the source Word document. We've even found it useful and time saving when used to compare vendor proofs to submitted artwork as it reduces the need to print out large files on our plotters for light table comparisons.

    Cons

    We're still using the demo environment as our Systems team finalizes the steps necessary for the upgrade rollout. We've been using the demo environment with real files to test out and learn the software in actual work activities. The 2 things I've struggled with are probably very easy to address. First, I can't figure out how to create my own group of settings/preferences so that I don't have to enter all my parameters every time I need to do a comparison. This feature should be more intuitive for a user to figure out where they set their preferences and a button says "name and save these criteria". Second, once I've completed a comparison, I can't figure out how to return to the home page and run a different comparison using different documents. Again, it's probably an easy fix, but it's not intuitive for the user to figure out.

    Essential Quality Tool

    Reviewed on 3/5/2020

    Pros

    This software has been an essential tool in my daily quality control work at a translation company. I use it for two main reasons: to detect updates to files submitted to us from clients and to detect updates between different internal file iterations. The text inspection and graphic inspection are amazing features that make my job so much easier to conduct. I couldn't do my job well without this software!

    Cons

    I have experienced a few drawbacks, namely that the software can come up with hundreds of false positives where there are no true changes. Sometimes, it is difficult to sort through those. In addition, the image comparison tool has been limiting in its use because it cannot run if the two documents are different page counts. Also, it takes up a lot of memory space, so I cannot run the image inspection a majority of the times that I would like to.
