Drukkerij Comar
Printing business Comar modernises with MultiPress
Printing Company Comar, run by Martijn and his mother Marijke, is an established name in South Limburg (the Netherlands), specialising in family and obituary printing and commercial print business. Despite their long history and competence, they face a challenge: the outdated administrative system Drumis is starting to pinch. High time to switch to a more future-oriented ERP/MIS software: MultiPress!
Comar: three generations of craftsmanship
Print business Comar offers a wide range of printing services, including digital and offset print jobs in small formats, in addition to an extensive range of graphic finishing options. In addition to their own production, they occasionally purchase web printing from colleagues in Germany. Comar is a family-run business that has built a strong reputation and a loyal customer base in the region thanks to their quality and craftsmanship.
Outdated Drumis software
Despite their success, Print Business Comar is encountering challenges with their current way of working, mainly due to the use of the outdated administrative software Drumis. Although the owners have become accustomed to this system and use it effectively for tasks such as quotation preparation, order confirmation and invoicing, they experienced increasing problems with the speed and efficiency of the programme. Owner Martijn even had to create an elaborate Excel sheet to perform some tasks. In particular, filling in order bags manually and invoicing advertisements remained a time-consuming and labour-intensive process.
Automation with MultiPress
Print business Comar is now switching to the more comprehensive and future-oriented software package MultiPress. This system offers advanced functions for calculation, order management, invoicing and more, allowing them to streamline their processes and save time. MultiPress helps to automate many tasks that are currently done manually, such as filling order bags and invoicing advertisements. At Comar, they can now better focus on core activities and better serve their customers.
Moreover, the implementation of MultiPress will bring significant benefits. By improving their workflow, they will reduce administrative costs, avoid errors and increase overall productivity. MultiPress also allows them to gain better insight into their business performance through advanced reporting and analysis with the Dashboard module, enabling them to make strategic decisions and drive growth. In the long term, investing in MultiPress can result in significant savings and an improved competitive position for Comar Print Business.
Investing in the future
Although switching to a new software package initially involves an investment, it is important to look at the long term. By investing in more modern technologies, Comar can strengthen their competitive position and be more responsive to the changing needs of their customers. The owners are open to change and willing to invest in the future of their business. With the right support and training, they can make a worry-free transition to MultiPress and take their business to new heights.
