Print & Sign
Order operations for Canadian print and sign shops. Digital storefronts and order flow systems built for wide-format printing, vehicle wraps, banners, and sign manufacturing.
Show us your order flowWe know the challenges
Print and sign shops have specific pain points that generic software doesn't solve. We started here because we understand the work.
Every order is different
Custom sizes, materials, quantities, finishes. No two jobs are the same, but your intake process tries to treat them like they are.
Files arrive separately from orders
Email threads with artwork. Dropbox links. USB drives. By the time production starts, the original order is buried somewhere.
Multiple people touch every job
Sales, design, production, finishing, shipping. Each handoff is a chance for something to fall through the cracks.
Customers call to ask where their order is
You know the job is somewhere in the shop. Finding exactly where takes longer than it should.
How CodSphere helps print & sign shops
We build systems that match how print shops actually work — not generic e-commerce or enterprise MIS that you'll fight with.
- Customers configure orders with the options that matter to your shop
- Files upload with the order, not in a separate email
- Orders flow into a timeline everyone can see
- Status updates go to customers automatically
- Exceptions surface before customers call
What we're not
We're not trying to replace your full print MIS (shopVOX, Printavo, etc). We complement those systems by solving the intake and order visibility problems they don't address well.
If you need job costing, production scheduling, and inventory management — we can connect to those systems. But that's not our core focus.

Answers to what we hear most often from Canadian print and sign businesses.
What types of print and sign shops does CodSphere work with?
We work with Canadian print and sign shops that handle custom orders — wide-format printing, vehicle wraps, banners, dimensional signage, architectural graphics, and trade show displays. If every order is different and you're dealing with quotes, file uploads, and approvals, we're built for your workflow.
Is CodSphere a replacement for our print MIS software?
No. CodSphere is not a full print MIS or ERP replacement. We focus on intake and order visibility — the gap between how customers buy and how production tracks work. We complement systems like shopVOX, Printavo, or your existing MIS by handling the customer-facing order flow.
How does the digital storefront handle custom print quotes?
Customers configure their order with the options that matter to your shop — size, material, quantity, finishes. They upload artwork files with the order (not in separate emails), and you can send quotes they approve online. Everything stays connected from first request to production.
Can customers track their print order status?
Yes. Customers get automatic status updates as their order moves through your workflow. This reduces status calls and gives visibility without your team manually sending updates. You control what stages customers see.
What does an engagement with CodSphere typically cost?
A digital storefront typically runs CAD $10,000–$25,000 plus $300–$750/month ongoing. Order flow pilots are CAD $7,500–$15,000 plus $1,000–$2,000/month. We start with a diagnostic ($1,500–$2,500) to map your current order flow before recommending scope.
