We tried others they are stabile frim and here for the long haul. Cons Like any MIS it takes to time to set up and get your pricing correct. After that its powerful and work as it should. Switched from [PrintSmith Vision](https://www.capterra.com/p/210917/ePs-PrintSmith-Vision/) Hated working with EFI everything was for their policy, which was only for their benefit or a future fix that rarely happened. Reasons for choosing Printers Plan The serive and suport. All MIS do 95% the same things, it's when you need help and costs that differ.

Bookkeeper Printing ### "No title" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 August 30, 2021 Over-all everything is fine except for the Print Reach Pay deposits. Pros The software is easy to understand and very user-friendly. Cons With regard to the collection of credit card payments, the total amount of the sales captured for the day is not deposited in the bank on the same day. Print Reach deposits the money after two days. This is the feature that we don't like because with our former credit card processor, they deposit our credit card sales total for the day after 5 PM on the same day of the sale. We hope Print Reach will resolve this matter. We just recently converted to Print Reach Credit Card processing and we don't like the money is being handled.

Thanks for being the best part of Print Reach! MH Michael H. President Printing ### "POS software once chosen is rarely change to a different POS" 4.0 Overall Rating 4.0 4.0 Ease of Use 3.0 3.0 Features 3.0 3.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 5/10 August 30, 2021 Not much has change with the exception of wide format that has little use unless I'm running extremely large jobs. (which I don't) So for the most part is awkward. The remaining printing software is very difficult to program. I usually spend hours to get the system to calculate cost and mark up properly on new items. Pros Once deployed to change POS is very difficult with any software. Therefore no comparisons can be made. Cons The cost is ridicules. Prior to being in "the Cloud" I could buy the software and use it onsite for many years. Now I pay that cost a year. If the previous server software was available I could use it for ~5 years. Therefore you raised the cost 500%. Reasons for choosing Printers Plan I was the system in the company I bought and had a decade+ of customer info.

Response from Vendor September 7, 2021 Michael, Thank you for taking the time to review Printer's Plan. It means a lot to us! You're correct the price has gone up. Providing and supporting cloud-hosted software to our customers is more expensive, but we calculate the additional functionality and time savings to offset the additional costs and more. Printer's Plan is packed with new features each year, you can see all of them here: https://support.printreach.com/hc/en-us/articles/360040592153-Release-Notes-and-Downloads We hope you'll explore our new integrated payments feature and ShipStation integration.

Owner Printing ### "The old standard" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 3.0 3.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 4.0 4.0 Likelihood to Recommend 7/10 August 30, 2021 Never once crashed, always accurate and gets the job done. Upgrading and maintenance can be pricey, but the old version I'm using still functions perfectly. Pros A full featured, dependable package you can count on working. Cons A bit of a learning curve, though you can set up templates for new users. Review source Non-incentivized review: any software user can leave a review for any product listed on our site.

Pros The overall layout and the simplicity of learning to use it. Cons I wish you could have more than one job open at a time and I wish that under paper cutting, in the right hand window, you could do combination layout, like you can in the left window. Reasons for choosing Printers Plan Cost, Ease of Use and visual design. Review source Non-incentivized review: any software user can leave a review for any product listed on our site.

Account Executive Printing ### "Printer's plan for estimating" 4.0 Overall Rating 4.0 4.0 Ease of Use 4.0 4.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 7/10 August 30, 2021 So far we are using it to standardize our estimating process. This allows for more consistency and easier updates to ongoing projects and quote requests. Pros Ease of setting up services and adjusting on the fly to affect changes globally (i.e. paper price updates, production times, etc). Cons Allows you to estimate something that's impossible to do on a given machine (i.e. printing on sheet larger than press can run). Doesn't seem to know correct impositions for work & turn / tumble layouts. Can't calculate weights based on paper used. Work order is one size fits all rather than customizable, both in terms of information presented and graphical layout. Reasons for choosing Printers Plan Heidelberg wanted to charge $7000 to train on the estimating portion of their software. Printer's Plans was more manageable from this perspective. And seems easier to setup from what I can see so far. Review source Non-incentivized review: any software user can leave a review for any product listed on our site.
