"We continue To grow with Printavo"
29 April 2019
We have had a great experience using Printavo. New employees seem to pick up very quickly on how things work. We continue to grow with Printavo as they are always listening to users and making updates to the software.
Pros:
We have saved so much time and money by automating tasks. Confirming orders with Customers to Avoid print errors. Allowing employees to all be up to date no mater what location they are in.
Cons:
There are still things that I would like to be able to customize just for ease of use and work flow. I am sure Printavo will eventually get these things added as features.

"Very good marketing, I like the way it looks"
22 January 2018
It's easy to use. I like how easy it is to start using screenprinting stuff. They have a lot of catalogs too.
Pros:
It looks, and is very simple software. Easy to get started. It's almost too simple. We decided to go with something a little deeper, shopvox.
Cons:
Once you get going, it's hard to know where to go from there. It's lacking in so many ways, it seems to stay that way. I decided to switch to shopvox. My advice, don't shop on price, it is worth thousands down the road to pay a little more, and not have to migrate. Migration is expensive.

"Incredibly amazing features for the price ... If you have a small enough shop."
27 May 2022
Honestly it was great. Their team was supportive, helpful and kind. Highly recommend for small shops, we only left when we out grew it.
Pros:
It's ease of implementation & ease of use. Really gives you the chance to quickly implement it and focus on growing your company.
Cons:
It doesn't have read/ write permissions. As we grew from 10 people towards 20-30 we started having issues with who could do what when. By the time we reached 30 we had to move away from it. It's also missing a "real" receiving system so there's no way to keep track of what showed up when. Ie, 100 shirts were ordered but 97 showed up missing 2 smalls and 1 medium. One has to rely on long tail text fields and employee initiative to keep things going.

"Works Well, Just Not for Me"
20 November 2018
Like I said in the Pros, Printavo is super excited to learn and grow into the software their clients want and need them to be. Unfortunately for the type of work we were doing it wasn't a great fit.
Pros:
I came across this software when the developer reached out to me after he first developed it. He's hungry, eager to learn, change, and develop. He was quick to make suggested changes based on industry experience which was fantastic. As a "in house" production software, it's a great solution. The calendar, order processing, built in invoicing, and more allows it to be an all in one platform that I'd recommend to anyone starting up.
Cons:
The major con for this software (at least for me) was that there was no support or opportunities for third party brokerage or outsourced ordering. Once you grow to a certain size, it becomes more difficult to operate without partner facilities and the ability to work those in on the Printavo platform just wasn't there.
