[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] are GREAT!
Pros
I grew up on PrintSmith for my business. Over the years EFI has referred many prospects to me for references. Now we purchased DSF and have a really powerful workflow: DSF > PrintSmith > Fiery. I like the way EFI is constantly working to integrate products which will increase our revenue and profits.
Cons
When the software goes down, it really goes down! We struggled for a year after hiring EFI to port our products to a new server (Azure). We had a contract with EFI [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] and I ended up asking [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN], respecfully, for a credit of $9332.20 because of my fiasco. I still haven't heard from him.

Overall I am pleased and grateful to have found Printsmith all those years ago. It has been an invaluable tool in bringing our Company from the age of hand written estimates, job tickets and invoices into the modern age of computers.
Pros
We have used Printsmith since 1997. Although there have been many updates and changes to the program, I have always found it invaluable in running our business.
The ease at which you can create an estimate (utilizing comparable past jobs and estimates from any client account), seamless conversion to Job Ticket, Invoice and ultimately post to billing saves hours of work each week. Printsmith stores all of our Client Account History, allowing us to predict what our client base is likely to be ordering in any given month, and allowing us to them in advance to confirm upcoming orders.
The built in accounting in Printsmith allows us to easily track profit and jobs won or lost, allowing us to print out comprehensive weekly and monthly close-outs that make the work for our Accounting Firm go off without a hitch.
Cons
I have no complaints about the system in general. When the purchased Program PRINTSMITH converted to on-line PRINTSMITH VISION, it was a learning curve that we managed to overcome and move forward with the help of the PrintSmith online support staff.

Most of my experience has been very expensive. but the staff is usually very responsive to my needs and helps me get through whatever the problem may be. Although i do not think i have talked to anyone there for over a year. i don't even know the new email for service.
Pros
I love the program as a whole. everything is clear and easy to use and accurate.
Cons
The cost is very high and it needs a website as part of it so everything is one place. i know you offer a web site add-on but its not cost effective for most small printers. I have a website that is not attached to the printsmith system that is very reasonable but it doesn't integrate into you product so i have to run separate books for it. I don't even have the web site customers on the printsmith software because its too tedious to double up work.

It's been good. And it's a workhorse. Just needs to be more intuitive and software management could be simplified.
Pros
We have been using PrintSmith since the early 1990's and while it has had some bugs, the tram is responsive and it consistently gets the jpb done.
Cons
1. Updates require an entire manual reinstall instead for thr self-hosted server instead of the more familiar single click authorization, then the software handles the updates seemlessly.
2. Forms require a third party app and specialized skill. while enterprise sized business may have the resources to "program" and make changes to fors, small family owned companies do not. Everything has moved to simple Codeless programming with drag and drop capabilites and the forms should as well, without the third party software.

My over all experience is 9 out 10 good. We have used it in our business since 2000 and have watched many positive changes.
Pros
The ability to look up account history
The ability to upload my paper suppliers price list
The templates are great.
Cons
I wish you were forced to enter the Invoice Title to include all items on an invoice, rather than it auto inserting the 1st item.
I wish that you could link A/R with Quick Books online at no extra cost.
The reports seem to be very complicated.
I wish there was a more cost efficent solution for online orders.
