Printavo is a strong fit for many decoration shops with a large installed base and mature production workflows. OBPrint is a different fit if you want live S&S, SanMar, and PromoStandards costs in the quote flow, timed press runs tied to job costing, and flat Full Run pricing with 10 seats included. Compare your seat count and whether press time on the floor matters before you switch.
Quick verdict
Where OBPrint wins
Where Printavo may still fit
Deep dive
OBPrint pulls blanks from connected S&S, SanMar, and PromoStandards catalogs in the quote builder. Decoration matrices and overhead show margin before send. Printavo offers catalog and supplier tools; depth and setup vary. Verify their current integrations if live garment cost in-quote is your main filter.
OBPrint tracks timed press runs, piece counts, and floor mobile on The Full Run. Production board, list, calendar, and machine queues match how decoration floors run. Printavo has production scheduling and shop floor views; press-run depth differs. Compare how each handles run time vs job status if costing after the fact matters.
OBPrint Full Run is $120/mo or $1,000/yr with 10 users included and Short Run free with limits. Printavo typically prices per user on paid plans; run your headcount against both models. OBPrint trial is 14 days, no card. Verify Printavo trial terms on their pricing page.
Many shops run new quotes in OBPrint while finishing open Printavo jobs. Export what you can from Printavo; we walk through parallel operation on a demo. Full history migration depends on what Printavo exports and what your team needs day one.

Best if · Printavo
You are already deep in Printavo, your team runs production there without friction, and switching cost outweighs the gaps you feel on supplier quoting or press-run costing today.
