I suppose this post is really for CS5 users. While I’m only testing CS5 on my personal machine – our organization has no immediate plans to upgrade form CS4 to CS5 anytime soon -- what little I’ve learned so far leads me to the tentative conclusion that this is little tool is worth a serious look.
Two caveats right up front:
1. As I said, this is for CS5 users only
2. This only seems to work if your image library sits in a box with a url
If you answer yes to both of these then Adobe Drive is something that, on the face of it, appears to solve at least a couple of issues: versioning and offline work.
One has to wonder if Adobe is angling to provide something resembling a full blown DAM but without the horrendous cost.
