Kodak offers three affordable ways to deploy Web to print solutions to print service providers

In comparison to other Web to print offerings, which can depend on a click charge, the KODAK INSITE Storefront System now provides three affordable pricing packages. Print service providers can choose a Kodak hosted, customer hosted (both under subscription) or purchase option. Uniquely, customers can switch between options to accommodate any changes in their circumstances giving them long-term peace of mind. As an example, once the volume of orders makes it challenging to operate in a “cloud” environment, a customer’s INSITE Storefront System configuration can easily be migrated back on site.
Kodak is committed to helping print service providers set up a customized, branded online shopfront for their business which is affordable, cost-effective and flexible for them. The INSITE Storefront System - part of the KODAK Web to print Solutions - is competitively priced, easy-to-use and can dramatically increase a print service provider’s reach and help them retain and attract new customers. Kodak’s open architecture software enables print service providers to quickly create tailored, branded storefronts for anytime, anywhere web sales and services.
“Kodak understands that print service providers in 2010 face challenges in financing potential and desirable investments,” says Nick Gilmore, Category Sales Director, Unified Workflow Solutions UK/Ireland/Nordic, Kodak. “We believe it is up to suppliers to help their customers with the financial aspects of a purchase as well as service and support. These new sales packages reflect Kodak’s commitment to meeting all printers’ needs, regardless of their size or position.
“Anytime, anywhere online sales represent huge potential to generate new revenue streams and increase profit for print service providers today,” continues Mr. Gilmore. “Kodak feels it is vital to adopt a partnership approach with its customers. Print service providers can now come to Kodak and know they will be offered an affordable solution with long term care and attention to their company’s business needs. Not only will they have the comfort of affordability they will be using the latest innovative Web to print tools on the market from a long-term partner.”
KODAK INSITE Storefront System makes it easy to set up customer-friendly, secure methods for shopping and re-ordering. Logos, graphics and messaging can be set up in minutes and in 18 languages. The KODAK Web to print Solutions offer advanced variable data print capabilities including horizontal and vertical data fields. Another advantage is the simple integration of the pricing and delivery charges on Microsoft Excel spreadsheets. The system will also pre-flight all jobs thus enabling customers to create on-demand, accurate and targeted personalized campaigns, direct mailers, catalogs, flyers and point-of-sale collateral.
