Following on from postings elsewhere, can anyone let me know, please, what 'extra' facilities there are in ThumbsPlus over and above those in Bridge. I suppose what I am really asking is that as I already have Bridge, what does ThumbsPlus add? Thanks in advance.

I am also curious about the same think John. The only problem might be finding someone that has both ThumbsPlus and Bridge and can tell us what the differences are.

I have both, but I don't use Bridge so I can't answer the question. And my relationship with TP goes back over a decade and I am a beta tester so that is why I use it.
All I can say is that it is a good organizer, and its editor is very good for quick edits. Its Red Eye removal tool works quite well and that is often the one I use. But of course you can get a more objective evaluation.

Bump, just in case there is someone having a view/input on this. Thanks.

I've never used Bridge, so I can't begin to make a comparison. That's why I've mostly kept out of this when the exchange went this direction. Have you been to the Thumbs Plus website to see the list of features? Maybe this will be of some help. http://www.cerious.com/thumbnails.shtml#feature_list

I'm a big Bridge fan especially over TP which I also must use as it is the preferred database software of a client.
I like the abilty to select and assign labels in bridge and then filter by them. I love the stack feature in Bridge where you can not only stack images but if you stack 5 or more you can watch the "video" of the stack.
I find the search features much easier in Bridge and the whole interface on a whole I find to be much more intuitve and user friendly. And it is customizable as in all the Adobe products with nesting panels and workspaces.

Happy Editing,
Beth

Let me ask what could turn out to be a dumb question, then.
I used Thumbs Plus way-back-when, and currently use Photoshop Elements 6's Organizer. However I never, ever use the organizer within Premiere Elements 4 -- I simply use it for exactly what Thumbs Plus does. And I currently own Photoshop CS3, so I don't edit/retouch/crop in any of the organizer programs.
In short, all I want to do is see thumbnails of the photos that I've got stored on CDs. I don't even need tags.
I'm not crazy about Photoshop Elements' Organizer. Is Thumbs Plus a better program for what I use it for, or is it not worth re-cataloging the 100 CDs and DVDs of photos if I were to switch to Thumbs Plus?
Dell XPS 8500 desktop w/ Intel i7-3770 CPU @ 3.4ghz / 22 gigs RAM / Radeon HD7570 1g dedicated video memory/ PrEl 11 & 9 / Photoshop and Illustrator CS5 / After Effects CS4 / Olympus OM-D E-M5 DSLR (1080i HD video)
Time is money, life is change.
