Web-to-Print : Finding the Right Solution

So how do you filter through the vendor offerings to learn "who does what" and narrow down the scope of your search? Printing Industries of America hosts a Website (www.w2ptestdrive.com) that provides an overview of many vendors in the space, separated by the four business models listed above.

InfoTrends recently launched a frequently updated site called the Ultimate Guide (ultimateguide.infotrends.com) where users can compare vendor Web-to-print solutions, as well as cross-media, VDP and transpromo software. The Ultimate Guide site features in-depth descriptions of dozens of vendors, and lets users filter their search based on more than 50 criteria (hosted, licensed, reporting features, integration, document design, print output formats and others). Once the search has been narrowed by the filter, the user can compare multiple solutions side-by-side, including pricing and dozens of very granular features, like CASS certification or database-driven VDP options.
