The vendor says it began in 2003 and covers typical signs, banners, lighted and routered signs, hand-painted signs, post and panel signs, real estate signs, magnetics and vehicle wraps, for businesses from small shops to large companies.
Version 4.3 adds a shop-rate pricing feature, a substrate calculator that works out the size and quantity of material needed, job and workflow trackers with stages, times and dates, a calendar of upcoming jobs, a thumbnail gallery, payment and balance tracking, and apparel printing job types (direct-to-garment, iron-on and screen) along with their setup fees. It integrates natively with QuickBooks.
It installs on a single workstation or on a local network at no extra charge, and syncs between computers through your own server or a cloud folder service such as Dropbox, OneDrive or Google Drive.
