Adobe Source streamlines information

Adobe Source is an air-based desktop tool developed specifically for Adobe South Africa to help the local creative community gain quicker and easier access to user, product and promotional information.

The application has been developed using Adobe Flex and Air, with a Drupal backend used to aggregate and moderate information.

"It's an application that empowers users and customers to choose when they want to interact with the product and its solutions directly on their desktops, to minimise the volume of unsolicited e-mail arriving in our customers' inboxes," says Leonard Rabotapi, Adobe marketing manager for Africa.

"It streamlines and centralises the brand's online news feeds," says Dinesh Copoosamy, Banzai Web Solutions head of development. "The downloadable tool is therefore a single source of information about promotions, events, training, user groups, as well as data relevant to the web, video and print communities."
