The overall changes are superb; it’s very much like creating a color map on a Tomra/Compac vision system. We’re 10x happier with this season’s color analysis compared to last year, when we didn’t have Hectre Color Grade.

We are happy with the color and size breakdown which allows us to better set up the line. Hectre Color Grade was “spot on” at predicting our premiums within 2% of the grader. 89.4 grader results and Hectre was at 88%.
