It is the right tool for the job of managing large amounts of fonts in a multi-user environment. Stable. Several interface tweaks would make it perfect.
I love, love, love being able to create new sets that everyone accesses.
FApro server seems to have a little bit of trouble with editing existing fonts. Like discovering a bad font and removing it or replacing it with a good one of the same name. In short, the synchronize (auto and manual) seems to only be good for adding fonts that had not existed in the library before. The library on the client's computer seems to need purging before recognizing that an existing font has been changed or deleted. But I think all of this may be related to OS X's problems with font caches.
Also I would like a way of puching new libraries to users, instead of relying on them to activate them.
But on the whole, it is a must have for any graphic design shop.

After the install of the FApro server, we seemed to have less problems for awhile. Then, all the old problems began to occur again. Fonts not activating, Fonts activating but not being available in Adobe CS2 inDesign. It is almost completly unworkable.
i wonder who else is having these problems.
What a disastrous piece of software. I wish I could edit my previous review ... or at least delete it.

looking for granular control at the workgroup admin level...and for the server to warn if the 26th person tries to load that 25 user font.

I do slightly resent the feeling that we were beta testing the first version of this software ... and there are still things i would like to see fixed/added ... but it definitely has improved a significant amount and is very worth the upgrade.
