PixtaSky Releases New Cloud-Based Workflow Estimator Tool for Digital Printers

Oct. 31, 2011 - PRLog -- PixtaSky, a cloud-based, digital print management solutions provider, announces its version two release of True Estimator, a tool designed to create quick, clear, accurate price quotes in multiple quantities resulting in profitability and efficiency for large format digital printers.

TrueEstimator™ is a feature of PixtaFlow – the first cloud-based workflow system built from the ground up to operate purely online – which is one of four core offerings provided by PixtaSky.

PixtaFlow assists large format digital printers to achieve profitability, write estimates and fulfill jobs, eliminating the need for months of system configuration. In addition to the new TrueEstimator™ tool, PixtaFlow includes features such as job management, web-based large file transfer, QuickBooks integration, complete e-mail integration, corporate print catalogs and a digital storefront.

Sky founder, Steen Mikkelsen, along with Pixta founder, David Rudolph, point to the new TrueEstimator™ as a significant upgrade to an in-demand solution for printer workflow. As an esteemed veteran in the digital printing industry, as well as the originator of i-cut® and the use of flatbed cutters – products created to achieve profitable results for short-run digital finishing of specialty graphics – Steen Mikkelsen is acutely aware of trends and challenges affecting the industry:

“The digital printing industry will continue to experience significant growth, however, small to mid-size printers are in dire need of advanced management tools, customized solutions and intelligent, timely information to maximize profitability,” says Steen Mikkelsen. “PixtaSky’s cloud-based workflow system, eliminates the need for digital printers to license expensive, monolithic software. PixtaFlow achieves secure, powerful workflow that the industry lacks. TrueEstimator™ now makes it even easier to write quick, consistent, accurate quotes, which are calculated automatically, for a variety of printing jobs, materials, combinations and sign kits. Attend the 2011 SGIA show and stop by our booth 140 and test our new iPad Apps, which allow field sales representatives to create quotes right at the customer site.”
