For the guys that told me about this and also for all those Flash
developers:

What has been your experience with Screenweaver, SWF Studio and Juggler??

Which one is better?

By the way... How do these kind of software applications relate to
Macromedia´s Central???


Thanks!

Can't say about the first two nor the Central , my only experience is with Jugglor.
I have been using it since mid of 1999. That time it was the only , very first such complex tool.
It may not have so much power as Studio but I have never had such needs so it is fully sufficient
for me.
There is few factors I take under consideration , one the most important is reliability
and performance than the developing team communication with end user , in case of support.

I have very tight deadlines , often given materials to work on just days before the
final product delivery. Usually due to confidentiality nature.
Flash Jester prove on number of occasions to provide excellent support at no time so I know i can
count on them.
They very open for any suggestions and will ask you while developing new application
what features you looking for , many of my favorites end up in the final build that's why I fill
very comfortable with Jugglor.
I was using it in projects for companies like volvo , tag heuer , mont blanc , very recently F1
racing Sepang Malaysia and the coming 04 April Bahrain and the 25 April in San Marino Imola . After
that have Tag Heuer and McLaren presentations for Monte
Carlo Monaco race on 23 May. Kiosks where user can explore information about performance , car
builds , drivers history , engineering improvements and such . All my clients has been very happy.
I do on regular bases kiosks , cd presentation for new products as give away for regular clients and
screen savers , for clients and corporate for internal use. Work with jugglor literally every day .
SO far , out of it I had only one report about performance problem which wasn't due to my application
but some other tool that ran in the background . So , I stick to what prove to work for me
throughout this years. No to mention , the resent release of version 2 totally nail it .
The team add some amazing features which I try to utilize for coming projects . The
Marketing director who preview my demo was blown away .

Well , I could say much more about these tools , as i'm using all together , tho I don't expect you
to like to read so much :)

I would suggest download each and see what works for you , my 2 thumbs up goes to Jugglor .

By the way , they have one ore great product , you may like to check

Thanks once more Urami.

great tool too, very well supported... Keep posting.

I've had to use screenweaver on a couple of projects, and would reccommend
it. I'm not going to provide anything like _urami's glowing endorsement of
Jugglor - perhaps I should try it again ;)

..I can't offer a comparitive assesment - i've had a *look* at the other 2
products at various stages of their development, but haven't ever had to use
them commercially.

Screeweaver intergrates pretty seamelessly with the Flash API, giving you
access to it's methods through additional commands rather than the use of
fscommand.

Appeared stable, and did what was asked of it.

Documentation was pretty bad, with a couple of their own as examples being
plain wrong.

Thanks Peter!
I´ve been looking for a comparison chart or even an review article but
haven´t found anything. I´ll keep looking.
