Empowers printers with streamlined automation integration.
Enfocus, an Esko business unit has unveiled its Works with Switch program that simplifies integration and automation processes for printing companies. The new program is designed to improve accessibility, cost-effectiveness, and efficiency by addressing long-standing challenges that exist in software integration. Through close collaboration with leading vendors, Enfocus has developed pre-built integrations, or ‘apps’, that drastically reduce the time and cost required for implementation. These ready-made solutions enable businesses to easily overcome the significant time and cost barriers that exist when implementing API, JDF, or XML-based integrations.
The Works with Switch program guarantees quality and seamless, reliable integration. The collaboration ensures that solutions are optimized for performance and compatibility, enabling printing companies to confidently implement Enfocus tools into their tech stack.
Davy Verstaen, Appstore Manager at Enfocus said, “At Enfocus, we believe that automation and integration should be easy, straightforward, and available to printing companies of all sizes. The Works with Switch program is proof of this, offering pre-built integrations that remove the traditional barriers of time, cost, and complexity, meaning high-end automation systems are now viable for every business. We’re excited to see how this program will empower the printing industry to innovate and thrive.”
All apps are publicly available on the Enfocus Appstore, allowing anyone – whether they are Switch users or not – to see what is available. “For many Switch users, checking the Appstore is the first step when investing in new hardware or software. A device or piece of software that doesn’t integrate with Switch means reverting to manual processes,” added Verstaen.
Current partners in the Works with Switch program include industry giants such as HP, Canon, Fiery, Onyx, Caldera, Alwan, Quite, Ultimate, Woodwing, and FUJIFILM, with more to be announced soon.
Enfocus develops affordable, flexible automation software for commercial and wide-format printers. Key products include, PitStop, Switch, Review, Phoenix, and Griffin that enable print service providers to automate their businesses. With its automation solutions Enfocus provides a seamless link between multiple systems by many vendors in prepress, press, and finishing, transforming production environments into unified automated workflows.
