Context and Challenge
The client, a provider of custom printing solutions, aimed to elevate their online presence and enhance the customer ordering experience. With a broad range of products including business cards, flyers, and signage, they faced challenges in guiding customers through the complex ordering process. The existing system made it difficult for users to discover services and manage orders effectively.

Solution Overview

The enhancements included the development of a clearer catalog structure, automated design upload functionalities, and an online design tool, allowing customers to visualize their customizations in real-time.
Key Capabilities

- Intuitive artwork submission and management for users.
- Real-time design preview to support customer decision-making.
- Simplified navigation between product offerings, facilitating faster ordering.
Implementation Approach
The implementation comprised several phases: initial analysis of the client's needs, development of a user-friendly interface, integration of design tools, and conducting user testing to ensure effective functionality. Through each phase, feedback was solicited to align the developments with client expectations.
Outcomes and Results
As a result of Cmsmart's enhancements, the client reported improvements in the overall customer experience, with customers finding it easier to select options and submit their designs. The reduction in ordering friction directly translated into an expedited fulfillment process, improving turnaround times and client satisfaction.
Workflow Integration

NBDesigner is a very robust plugin for printing shops. It may take a bit of time to learn, as I am, but the support team is there to help. I've been in printing 30 years and I am impressed with how the developers have thought this plugin through. It has everything.
