It saves us a ton of time since we no longer have to respond and coordinate each order. > > **Cons**: The web design feels like it hasn't been updated since the early 2000s. For new users, it can be confusing on how to access specific files and whether an account is necessary or not. Generally not a great uer experience, but it gets the job done. ----- ### "Great easy to customise product" — 4.0/5 > **Alistair** | *26 November 2024* | Printing | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: A great product, easy to customise and excellent customer experience > > **Cons**: We have had struggles with connectivity to our Prism system, but this is getting better > > We have really enjoyed the ability to offer our customers a platform that allows them to feel like its their own system when ordering product from us. We have even been complimented on this system. ----- ### "MDSF is Easy to Use\! Improvements can be made but an overall nice product\!" — 3.0/5 > **Kenzie** | *20 August 2020* | Printing | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like MDSF because it's easy to use. I believe anyone can easily work within it to create basic offerings for their company\! > > **Cons**: There are a lot of missing features that in today's day, I believe should be a part of the software. It is very hard to collect information from a client ordering products. The only way to do so is through accounting codes. This should be a priority to implement. > > My experience has been positive. While there are many improvements I think could be made, it's functional for my company and easy to know your way around it\! ----- ### "UPS STORE BRADENTON FL" — 5.0/5 > **SONI** | *25 November 2024* | Consumer Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: signs came on time well made and color looks great > > **Cons**: there's not much if any cons to what Market Direct has done to disappoint ----- ### "Great storefront on it's own" — 5.0/5 > **Tony** | *20 August 2020* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like all the different type of options when it comes to products, I appreciate the level of customization across the entire backend such as printing services, papers, products, design, etc. > > **Cons**: Some services and specs, filled out by the customer, don't come across to our PrintSmith depending how you have that setup. We had to rebuild all ticket templates in PrintSmith (yes a second time) in order to link products up to ticket templates from our storefront. This was our workaround, some things still don't come across until recently, SIZE wouldn't come over from the storefront into PrintSmith, so I think there is room for improvement here. I like the idea of product overrides, but in the new version it is not working. This could also use some updating keeping ticket templeting to a minimum. Can't copy products that have overrides. Because of this alone, I typically have to create a new ticket template for every product, usually due to the paper. SmartCanvas is very promising, but comes with a large learning curve and even then I feel that a well thought-out guide would be very helpful. Fonts don't show up correctly in certain views and makes paragraph styled text boxes extremely hard to see how type will flow from the customer side. I will say the level of control with SmartCanvas is very nice locking fonts, colors, sizing or allowing the buyer to fully customize the product in anyway. > > Overall the building process can be quite easy after using the software for a while and learning what works with our product management system (PrintSmith). SmartCanvas has been quite hard to figure out with little guidance from EFI but is very promising. In general by its self MarketDirect Storefront is strong, but could use a lot of tweaking when talking to other modules. After a few years we have grown our ticket templates to a few hundred and have grown our products to a few thousand. Planning out your categories up front will be crucial for customers to be able to find what they are looking for. ----- Page: 1 / 6\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/112599/ePs-MarketDirect-StoreFront?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/112599/ePs-MarketDirect-StoreFront) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | fr | | ----- ## Structured Data
