What is Printavo?

After running a screen-printing business for a good long while, we realized there’s not a simple solution for screen-printers to help manage their shop. My name is Bruce Ackerman and I am one of the founders of Printavo. While running my print shop in Illinois, we were using multiple software systems to keep track of orders, payments, customers and accounting functions. Each system was separate and didn’t talk to one other which created redundancies, lost revenue and unhappy customers. Our screen-printing shop grew quicker than expected which made our current system unacceptable to continue using. This led us to search for a new centralized system to help us.

After weeks of research we came across Shopworx, Quickbooks, Filemaker and Teecal. Each of these systems were not user friendly, needed to spend unnecessary time reading manuals, costly, only accessible on one computer, needed server resources, slow, no mobile compatibility and poor customer service. We could not use these for our screen-printing business.

We have been web developers as a side-job for a while so why not build the perfect, simple solution to help fellow screen-printers manage their shops!
