We have demo [[Supravision]] software and know that [[Supravision]] works well.  We do not have a demo version of DOCS software, so we are unable to give a recommendation regarding DOCS from personal experience. The documentation shows that DOCS has a more powerful feature set than Supravision.

DOCS is a software package that is sold by Romer. The word "DOCS" means Data Overlay Camera System. Read more about DOCS at these sites:

Comparing DOCS to Supravision

Supravision and DOCS are developed by Romer. Supravision is an older program that is quite stable. The DOCS software is much newer.

DOCS Software

Supravision Software

Active - Continued development

Static - No more development

Allows for the measurement of tube data and non-tube data surrounding the tube - including brackets and other fabrications

Measures only tube shapes

Can use contact or non-contact measurement

Can only use non-contact measurement of tube shapes

Can measure multiple tubes in a single DOCS file

Can measure one tube per Supravision file

We have no experience with DOCS beyond a demo. It appears to be fairly simple to setup for tube measurement.

Measuring tube shapes is simple after you understand the structure of Supravision menus.

Our Experience

As of December, 2007, we have been given a license of DOCS software for evaluation and testing with our Benderlink software.

This software is moderately stable and is capable of Supravision network communications. In comparing the two packages, we recommend that tube fabricators choose DOCS over Supravision because of the new capabilities within DOCS.
