  2. Signvox frustrations. Any long time users around?

    the software is nice, but like others have said, for us it just seems to take up to much time on input. Im not convinced by the text chat support either, some questions seemed as if they had to refer to a handbook to try answer a question, but took too long, or worse couldn't answer the...
  3. SignVOX thoughts and considerations requested

    We tried it for two months. On the face of it I really liked it. Online, access anywhere, good place to input enquiries and follow up etc, job tracking i like too. Having said that, for us it was a little too much to do in the beginning of a new enquiry, even if existing customer. Gotta type in...

  5. Removal from Hell!

    53ft all like that, i would walk from it. That is beyond a nightmare. Perhaps suggest industrial paint shop (trailers) that can blast it off. Just because its vinyl, doesn't mean you have to take it off.

  12. Vinyl is NOT made for Signmaking

    A short rant. Why is vinyl not really made for sign making? What are you talking about I hear you say! Im sure, like me, you all have had the problem, right!? Vinyl marks and scratches far too easy. So today we decided to make a sign with a flood coat black background with text on top...
  13. Signvox Shout Out

    Thanks Kevin. Well I have done the basic set up, a few tweaks to do. I have just been to a meeting to measure up for some wall paper graphics for a local business. I did NOT take our usual (been using for years) enquiry form, a pad, or a pen. I just took my ipad sat with the client and...

    Jill/ Chip Thanks for the input, much appreciated. We use Illustrator mostly with back up when needed with Signlab. I did some more digging and found that it can be done in excel then copy paste into illustrator. Literally do the first two rows in one column with numbers select both cells at...
