ManagePrint vs Printavo

The same workflow your shop already runs: quoting, approvals, production, invoicing. Up to 5× less, with no per-worker fees and the analytics Printavo never gave you.

Printavo helped define print shop management software, and plenty of screen printing and embroidery shops still run on it. But its entry plan now starts at $109/month, the most popular tier is $244/month, and growing shops pay extra per user — so the bill climbs exactly as you add the people who do the work.

ManagePrint is a Printavo alternative built for the production floor: open pricing from $49/month, free worker seats, a real-time board, and a worker view in English and Spanish. Below is an honest, sourced comparison so you can decide for your own shop.

Why shops switch

The reasons print shops move from Printavo to ManagePrint.

Workers are free

ManagePrint never charges per worker. Put your whole crew on the floor view and your bill doesn't move. Printavo's higher tiers add users at $19/month each.

Use it on any device

Run the shop from a laptop or phone, or give workers a focused view in English or Spanish on the iPads you already have.

Open pricing, no sales call

Every plan and price is on the site. Start a 14-day free trial without a credit card or a demo call, and run real jobs before you decide.

Move over in an afternoon

Professional includes a one-click Printavo import for customers, quotes, and historical invoices, so switching doesn't mean re-keying your shop's history.

Where Printavo is the better pick

If your shop is already deep in the Inktavo ecosystem — InkSoft stores, GraphicsFlow art, OrderMyGear — staying on Printavo keeps those tools under one login, and that tight integration can outweigh the price gap. ManagePrint is the stronger pick when you want lower, predictable cost, free worker seats, and a production-floor experience over a bundled suite.

Questions, answered.
