Our customers are saying great things about us!

Citation Software has a reputation for superior customer service and excellent technical support! Look what some of our customers have said about us:

Looking for a Web-to-print system? Give us a call!

There is a dizzying array of Web-to-print systems available today! Choosing the right one for your particular situation can be a daunting task.

You will need to make a lot of decisions. For example:
  • Do you want to run the software on your own server, or, conversely, do you want to subscribe to a Web-to-print service that is hosted by another company?

  • Will you be designing and creating the documents yourself, or will you need to hire another company to do it?

  • Will you be printing the documents yourself, or will you need to hire another another company to do it?

  • Will your documents be static or variable?

  • If your documents will be variable, where will the variable input come from?

  • Do you want customers to be able to modify the formatting of the documents?

  • Do you need a system with digital-asset-management capabilities for dealing with libraries of graphics?

  • Do you need an order-management system so that you and/or your customers can view order status, order history, etc.?

  • Do you need to set things up so that customers can pay for their orders with credit cards?

  • Last, but certainly not least: how much will it cost?
Because we have partnered with several leading suppliers of Web-to-print technology, our customers can choose from among several different state-of-the-art Web-to-print solutions. Our free consulting service can help you choose the right system! We focus on matching the customer with the solution that best fits that customer's budget and technical needs. We offer this service FREE OF CHARGE.

Our software-financing program

Citation Software has partnered with LeaseSource, Inc. of Atlanta, Georgia to offer a financing program for software. This financing program makes it easier for businesses of all sizes to acquire state-of-the-art software solutions that are sold by Citation Software.

How does the financing program work?

It's easy! A customer that wants to purchase software through Citation Software's financing program fills out an application form and submits it to Citation Software. Upon approval of the application and acceptance of the customer's initial payment, Citation Software will make the selected software product available to the customer. The customer can start using the software right away. The customer will make monthly payments according to the terms of the financing agreement. After the customer has made all the payments, the customer will own the software free and clear.

(Go to www.CitationSoftware.com/CitationFinancingApplication.pdf to get a copy of the application form.)

If you have questions about our software-financing program, don't hesitate to call us at 508-436-2543.
