About Series 3 ProShop Print Estimating

Series 3 ProShop Print Estimating by MBA Software is a rock-solid, incredibly reliable on-premise workforce solution designed specifically for growing commercial print houses.

Series 3 ProShop Print Estimating by MBA Software is a rock-solid, incredibly reliable on-premise workforce solution designed specifically for growing commercial print houses. Its greatest advantage is how seamlessly it connects quoting tools with back-end business ledgers, enabling shops to turn complex print specifications into clean financial invoices within minutes. Backed by an exceptional, human-driven "live-voice" customer support team, it eliminates the sync delays and system crashes typical of modern cloud platforms. While it lacks web-to-print ordering portals and a modern visual interface, it remains an excellent choice for print operators who want absolute control over their margins, secure local data ownership, and high-performance accounting tools.

Pros & Cons

Pros
  • Gives estimators full freedom to manually override and tweak calculations for complex print jobs.
  • Connects quoting tools directly to core accounting files to prevent double-entry errors.
  • Runs smoothly without relying on active internet connections, preventing cloud outage downtime.
  • Eliminates chatbot frustrations by giving clients direct access to human technical experts.
Cons
  • Requires staff to update ink and paper material costs manually inside reference tables.
  • Does not include built-in customer web portals for self-service web-to-print ordering.
  • Built strictly for desktop use, meaning field reps cannot generate quotes on mobile devices.
