Helpful Tip: After upgrading, keep the “Suitcase Bridge” and “Suitcase Extension” of your Suitcase X1 in the system folder/system extensions. Unfortunately, with the launch of Suitcase Fusion the support for the Classic version vanished. Suitcase Fusion is a single-license product specifically for Mac OS X. Included in the delivery of Suitcase Fusion is a version of Font Doctor 7 (Morrison Software) for checking and repairing your fonts. No matter how demanding your workflow is. No matter how many documents you work with. Suitcase Fusion represents a seamless, dependable tool to manage your fonts, no matter how many you use.

Suitcase Fusion is a professional font manager targeted at the professional who is working with type and fonts.

In addition to the easy to use interface, Suitcase has launched a number of new features. You should be able to tuck that into a small project and still come out ahead, even if you're a freelancer.Suitcase Fusion is a combination of Suitcase and Font Reserve. I haven't bothered seeing if I can update my auto-activation plug-ins without updating but here's why if you use software like this for professional purposes then a yearly upgrade at ~$30-40 isn't bad at all. Sure, it looks a little dated (it was supposed to be the iTunes of fonts) but I don't spend very much time activating/de-activating fonts to care that much. It integrates with Typekit, SkyFonts, and give me the ability to manage fonts how I choose. When FontExplorerX came out I jumped right in and have been happy ever since. There were so many issued with fonts getting corrupted, not activating, or any number of other issues. That being said, I used Suitcase Fusion for a long time, long before FontExplorerX was even available and I hated it. If you only need a handful of fonts for digital work then Apple's Font Book is probably just fine.

I have lots of fonts as O do both digital and print design so my opinion is skewed a little.
