Compare Estima8 vs. PrintSmith Vision

Estima8 serves as an intelligent assistant specifically designed for print shops, transforming every print request into a ready-to-send quote within minutes. In many print shops, quoting can be the most time-consuming process. When a request arrives, it often sits idle while someone searches for pricing and specifications, leading to a situation where by the time the quote is issued, the customer may have lost interest. Estima8 effectively addresses this delay. It interprets inquiries much like an experienced customer service representative, extracts precise pricing directly from your existing systems, such as Print Smith Vision, and composes both the estimate and a digital proof. Your team can then review and approve everything before it reaches the customer, combining the benefits of automation with the assurance that your staff maintains oversight. There’s no need to learn a new system, go through migration, or experience any disruptions. Estima8 seamlessly integrates with the quoting methods you're already using, but does so at an accelerated pace. As a result, your top employees can reduce the time spent on data entry and focus more on acquiring and retaining customers. If slow quoting is causing you to lose potential jobs, we would be delighted to provide you with a demonstration of how Estima8 can enhance your operation. Let us help you streamline your process and improve customer satisfaction.
