Depending on what type of projects you handle, good Project Management software, datacenter software and Version Control software streamlines production.

I recently implemented FreeVCS (freevcs.org) at home. It not only allows version control, but it serves as a per project management solution...it also has a built in difference editor...allows you to look at the local file and the archived one in the vcs database..compare them and merge them if wanted.
This makes development with multiple projects and multiple people super easy.

One issue I have is the data management issue trying to impement version control for large files.
Firstly, designers usually hate version control, secondly, the storage needed for large photoshop files is immense

Yea, but usually VCS is really just for code. I'm sure there are 'design' centric ones out there...but I'm mainly talking code.

Although, if you work in Architecture or Industrial design, you have to learn how to deal with some form of version control and phase development.

I agree about the code emphasis but I have always wanted an "image" based VCS.
is there one?

Don't know. Would be an interesting open-source project.

I would like to see a font development vcs.
