### "Pace"

December 16, 2021

3.0

Pros

It's web-based, so remote availability is easy.

Cons

Invoicing issues as noted prior with many manual touch points. Some things seem to take longer than necessary - additional clicks. Minimal reporting features also don't allow for easy reporting on multiple aspects of a job/estimate.

### "All you will need"

December 2, 2021

5.0

Pros

It has everything. We can manage everything from the estimates through to shipping inside Pace with modules. This makes it very effective for our company.

Cons

While it does everything, some aspects are not as developed. I would like to see better ways of managing the physical inventories (barcodes and scanners) and bundles modules often lead us away from purchasing something we need (notifcations and API bundled for example, just need notifications)

Pros

The frontline support. The folks that assist with making this software work do a pretty good job.

Cons

Inventory is a joke. Development is bad. I'm not your BETA tester

### "Next-Level Print Management"

December 2, 2021

5.0

Pros

Creating estimates are easy while at the same time being very detailed, allowing for more accurate estimates while also speeding up the average turn time of our estimates.

Cons

The only issue we have found is that certain parts are very cookie-cutter which may not work with every business, so workarounds have to be made to get the results you want.

### "EFI is a great partner for our business"

December 16, 2021

4.0

Pros

EFI Pace streamlines so much of our business operation. We save time and have improved efficiency throughout our shop thanks to ePace.

Cons

Some integrations have been slow to get fully operational but EFI support is committed to helping you get things implemented.

### "Let's Pace it!"

April 8, 2021

4.0

Overall, using EFI Pace, once you're into it you just keep learning. As an administrator, it's easy to manage user request for queries and reports.

Pros

As an SAAS, it gives you the confidence that it has gone through the strictest quality tests and that it will not conk out on you. I am new to the industry where I first used EFI Pace, but it was straightforward enough for me to learn more about the industry standards by the way it structured the dive-ins and reporting formats.

Cons

There is not enough online contents on how to use specific features of the system. They have a community, but it seldom gives you the actual topic you are looking for.

### "Review of MM Print Suite"

September 21, 2020

4.0

Pros

We were able to upload much of our existing information directly into Pace.

Cons

Reporting abilities - many default reports did not work properly, and to "correct" them we were told it was a customization. When working in Pace Station, the inability to link tables / objects for reporting has been very frustrating.

Reason for choosing ePS Pace

It fit our needs better - we felt Hagen was too robust for our smaller shop.

### "Review"

December 16, 2021

4.0

Pros

It has a lot of functionality. Its scalable as our business grows. It helps become a technology driven business.

Cons

Metrix has never worked well for us. Whilst its very powerful and advanced it can be complicated to use. I would welcome it being more user-friendly.

Reason for choosing ePS Pace

Scheduling/auto-count was very impressive

### "Works well but implementation was a struggle "

September 17, 2020

4.0

The trainers are very responsive and helpful. Unfortunately that's were the helpfulness ends. The software was difficult to implement as there wasn't much guidance. Once everything was up and running, it works well and does what we want.

Pros

Intelligent calculations and plenty of information to report on

Cons

Implementation was more difficult than anticipated due to issues between our IT and EFI

Reason for choosing ePS Pace

We choose Pace as it gave us the opportunity to grow. Other products on the market only did what we currently wanted and not enough scope for future growth.

### "A renew of PACE"

December 2, 2021

5.0

Pros

We are in the process of a complete overhaul on the system. The help that we get from the EFI staff and the EFI communities has been wonderful.

Cons

### "EFI PACE Upgrade"

December 16, 2021

4.0

The software helps us quote, plan and implement our work. It helps us bill and ties into accounting well. Unfortunately, like any software it has bugs and requires frequent updates requiring a costly maintenance contract.

Pros

It is custom tailored to the printing industry. It saves time in estimating by creating templates for estimates and estimate components. It links different parts of our business together i.e. accounting, job costing, estimating and production. It helps us see where we are making money where we are not making money. It helps us identify projects that suit our capabilities and projects that don't.

Cons

It requires at least one person to administer the software and should have two or three that are qualified to jump in if necessary. The software requires substantial set-up time. It is a major investment of time for key personnel. It may be more than a small company can manage.

Reason for choosing ePS Pace

We upgraded from a previous version of PACE. We have used the previous versions for about 11 years.

Market Direct Storefront is a great selling point for many customers.

Pros

### "I've had better"

March 5, 2018

3.0

Do headaches count?

Pros

Very robust and intuitive. Covers al lot of areas and would be a great asset to bean counters. Great for running reports- Customer service is helpful

Cons

extremely cumbersome and confusing. Hard to use. There is no flow to the program. I don't think the programmers actually talked to anyone that was involved in estimating when designing the system.There are better estimating programs out there
