New Value, New Revenue

Commercial construction has changed, and the way you serve your AEC customers must, too. Move up the value chain from selling prints to managing the content and logistics critical to construction projects. Digital distribution is increasing the complexity of projects, but also increasing the role you can play in ensuring that everyone has the right information at the right time.

PLP Digital Systems can help you increase sales and be relevant to your customers. Solutions like RevLine add intelligence to the content you now manage. Behind the scenes, products like PlotWorks Pro and OpCenter improve your output and productivity.

PLP has always helped you serve the customer, and now brings you solutions that start a new conversation, allowing you to stay an integral part of the construction process.

Help your AEC customers get projects done on budget and on time with true business intelligence. We can help you:

  • Mitigate risk associated with design changes
  • Drive on-demand construction site services
  • Manage construction documents
  • Reduce bid cycle time
  • Offer flexible pricing models with better metrics built-in

 

Save Thousands of Dollars with Competitive Upgrade for Repro Desk

August 25, 2011

Important Decision AheadAn important decision lies ahead if you are using Repro Desk version 4.3 or 1.6. These products have been discontinued and are no longer being maintained or developed. This has several implications:

  • Your existing software is obsolete
  • If you are replacing a 9800 with a TDS series printer, Repro Desk 4.3/1.6 is not an option
  • Existing software defects (bugs) will not be fixed
  • There will no further enhancements or new features

Customers who have analyzed the available upgrade paths to either Repro Desk Select or Repro Desk Professional have found:

  1. The upgrade is expensive due to server requirements.  Estimates ranged from $5,000 to $8,000 for the hardware, operating system, database software, backup software, etc.
  2. The workflow is significantly different (described as "cumbersome" by several customers) when compared to Repro Desk 4.3/1.6.
  3. Neither Repro Desk Select nor Repro Desk Professional adequately address PDF processing issues such as speed and image quality.
  4. Switching to PlotWorks Pro is the best option.

PLP is offering a competitive upgrade from Repro Desk to PlotWorks Pro through September 30, 2011.  You will have to make a change a some point in the future.   Make the change now to save thousands of dollars with this time-limited offer. Read more...

After evaluating several PDF conversion products for an extended period, I found that PlotWorks provides the best blend of performance and image quality. It rips files that other products can't handle, and their multi-page file support is very effective.

PLP enabled us to use the best components from several different vendors instead of having to be dependent on a single vendor. In addition, we utilize the OpCenter product so our production managers can more easily share work and visualize the available capacity in each of our offices.

PLP has enabled us to keep our Océ 9800 scanners while replacing our Océ 9800 printers with one KIP 9000. The transition was fast and efficient and we have seen a decrease in maintenance costs of over 50% – as a small business, that's substantial.

Everyone in our company is using Job Center and it's making life easier on a daily basis. We're saving 8 hours per week by reducing key strokes, eliminating human error, and capturing data digitally. Our Customer Service reps can easily search Job Center to provide customers with timely answers and the executive team has immediate visibility into all production. The time saved is a key factor, but the ability to serve our clients in a more professional and timely manner has increased beyond measure.

We chose to build our production workflow on PLP's products because we believe PLP has solid technology, they are hardware vendor independent, and are innovating aggressively. Adoption of this technology is critical to us competing in today's fast moving business environment.

A Volkswagen Bug will get you from point A to point B but not as well as a Ferrari. In our business we need performance. Simply put, PLP is just a more commercial grade application than the alternatives. It gives us the ability to do our work more quickly and efficiently.

Job Center gives us great visibility of jobs in production. Every order that comes in gets entered into Job Center and at the end of the day it’s matched up with billing so we know nothing walks out the door for free.
