What is Printavo
Printavo is a shop management system designed for screen printing, embroidery, and other decorated apparel businesses to manage quotes, orders, production, and customer communication. It supports workflows such as job tracking, art approvals, invoicing, and scheduling for small to mid-sized print shops. The product emphasizes job-level visibility and production status tracking rather than full apparel brand ERP functions like multi-warehouse inventory planning or PLM. Printavo is commonly used alongside accounting and e-commerce tools via integrations.
Built for print shop workflows
Printavo centers on job-based order management for decorated apparel, including quoting, work orders, and production status tracking. It fits common shop processes such as art/approval steps, scheduling, and customer updates. This focus can reduce the configuration effort compared with broader apparel ERP suites that target brand, wholesale, and supply-chain planning.
Production visibility and tracking
The system provides tools to track where jobs are in the production process and to coordinate tasks across a shop floor. Teams can use statuses and schedules to manage throughput and due dates. This is particularly useful for businesses that run many concurrent custom orders with short lead times.
Integrations for adjacent functions
Printavo is typically positioned to connect with other business systems rather than replacing them end-to-end. Integrations help shops link order management with accounting, payments, and other operational tools. This approach can be practical for smaller organizations that want a focused production/order system without adopting a full apparel ERP stack.
Not a full apparel ERP
Printavo is oriented to decorated-apparel shop operations, not the broader requirements of apparel brands and manufacturers. Capabilities commonly expected in apparel ERP suites—such as deep style/color/size matrix planning, multi-entity financials, and complex procurement/warehouse optimization—may require additional systems. Organizations with wholesale, multi-channel distribution, or manufacturing planning needs may outgrow it.
Limited PLM-style capabilities
The product is not designed as a product lifecycle management system for apparel development. Functions like tech packs, BOM management, sampling workflows, and seasonal line planning are typically outside its core scope. Companies that need structured product development and sourcing governance will likely need separate PLM or ERP modules.
Inventory depth may be constrained
While it supports operational tracking for jobs, it is not primarily an inventory-centric platform for complex stock management across multiple warehouses and replenishment strategies. Shops with significant blank-garment inventory, kitting, or advanced picking/packing requirements may need a dedicated inventory/WMS solution. This can increase integration and process complexity.

Notes:
- Printavo Merch (online stores) appears on the pricing page as an additional charge labeled "$109/mo"; the vendor Help Center/support articles include related but slightly different wording (e.g., stating Printavo Merch is included on Premium and/or a $99/mo add-on to Standard). These are both on official Printavo pages and contain inconsistent details.
- The pricing page lists a free trial but shows two different trial lengths on different parts of the site: the pricing header states "Free 7-day trial" while the FAQ says "free 14-day trial." Both statements are present on Printavo's official pages.
