Adobe CS5 & Font Managers...

Anyone have an opinion as to what font managers are working well with CS5? Our firm is running a mix of FontAgent Pro and FontExplorerX... Would love to standardize...
 
I'm using Lino's FEX on my Intel mac with CS5 and it works fine.
I use it on all our Mac G4s, G5s, and Intels.
Suitcase Fusion just didn't cut the mustard and we were having issues with a lot of fonts not loading.
 
We are using Suitcase Fusion 2, with much success. Suitcase Fusion (the first version) has many problems. It think most fonts are corrupt. Suitcase Fusion 2 is a whole different ballgame, and handles fonts much better. For CS4 and older, we use Suitcase X1, which works better than Suitcase Fusion.

I am still using Font Reserve Server and have encountered no problems thus far. My experience with UTS was not good. They keep telling me to try V2, but I spent so many wasted hours being a guinea pig for V1 that it left a bad taste in my mouth. So far, as long as I don't go to Snow Leopard, I can stay with my excellent font management from 2002. What a program .
