Any large format print company that manages installations could benefit from Vantage, which also works as a standalone solution without the need for Lift.
When a job is created in Lift, the relevant data is sent automatically to Vantage every couple of minutes, so staff don’t have to duplicate tasks. The scheduler can see everything about an installation in Lift, and they assign installations and upload guides there. The installation coordinator sees the exact same information in Vantage and can easily see when a job is ready.
Removing the duplicate steps was very important to our team, and the ability for notifications to be sent push-based from the software rather than having to send an email is a great time saver.
Having customers sign a screen instead of using paper copies is much quicker, and the photos from a job are also automatically sent back to Lift. That way, we can close off and invoice jobs much quicker.
The most valuable aspect is how the Vantage team takes all their requests seriously, providing clear explanations from the developer’s perspective and giving insights into the cost/benefit of each change. This approach has helped us to focus on the most impactful areas.
We consider this a partnership – we’re not buying Vantage software as a customer, we’re investing in it.
