Promote your own brand and differentiate your value-added services from competitors. Configure multiple tenants, each with their own distinct branding.

Kodak Prinergy Integration
Add Vbridge connectors to integrate your Vera system with Kodak Prinergy. Files uploaded through Vera are routed to and processed by Prinergy, including preflight, color management and trapping. Prinergy jobs and refined pages are automatically registered back in Vera for customer approval and preflight messages are displayed while proofing. Vbridge integrates with Rules-Based Automation (RBA) to deliver enhanced prepress automation. With Vera you can easily replace your Kodak InSite with a flexible, reliable enterprise-capable system.
Extensible Platform
Vera integrates with Enfocus PitStop Server for PDF document preflight and auto-correction, Box.com for cloud-hosted job file archiving, prepress workflow systems such as Esko Automation Engine and Fujifilm XMF, as well as our partners' proprietary business systems.

Email Notification
Configurable email notification keeps you and your team informed throughout the review cycle. Receive automated notification when new files arrive, tasks are assigned, annotations are made and approvals are completed, as well as reminders for tasks that are outstanding.
