Printify: Print on Demand

While the product selection is great, the variation in print quality is where Printify lost our business. Despite requesting re-orders and expressing the issues with customer support the replacement products had the same bleed and quality issues but in different areas. It's clear that there is absolutely no quality control going on here, and that is enough to warrant a suggestion to avoid this print on demand service.

I love this app it is easy to use, and it has been helpful to me as I continue to establish my store. The product is well maintained as it is organized in an fashion that will allow the customer to view it and get a sense of the quality of material used. Overall I think it is a well worth product is worth the price, look forward to doing business.

Thank you

amazing apps... create 400 products in less than 3 minutes wow

I would rate this zero stars if possible. This is the worst print quality I have ever seen. I've used at least 6 print on demand sites in search of the best quality for my customers. Printify is at the absolute bottom of that list. The print on sweaters is peeling and discolored on arrival. Product has not been washed or worn and is already faded and destroyed. Printify customer service takes days to respond and will not provide any compensation, even after photo evidence is supplied. Use Printful. With Printiful, the exact same files were provided and printed with excellent quality. I'm looking to have to refund at least 10-20 customers out of my own pockets now. DO NOT MAKE MY MISTAKE.

Updated 12/11: Customer service wouldn't budge to help until I posted this review. Then I got a personal call and an offer to help. They reprinted and the new one they sent was worse than the original. Image is completely faded out on a light pink garment. The back is completely faded, yet the front is nice and dark but horribly blurry. Stay away at all costs, the bad prints are clearly not errors, but the norm. I now have multiple garments with errors and customer complaints. Take it from someone who sells 100 or more garments a month, do not use, they will embarrass you and make a bad name for your brand.

The app itself works well - it was very easy to create products and integrate them with Shopify! There was a small snafu with the sample t-shirt I ordered however. The shirt must have been folded when the design was printed on it so there were large, blank white spots across the design. The corners and seams were also all blank since the sewing did not align with the design. Fortunately I reached out to customer care and they responded very quickly. I worked with Tom Otter, the Business Development Manager for Printify, and he was more than willing to solve the issue. I received an apology, full refund, and advice concerning the quality of my products. For future reference, I would recommend staying away from the print supplier "Colorado Timberline" and instead go for the recommended "MWW" for all over print (AOP) products. Also, always order a sample product before making it available to your customers but that's just common sense! So while my first experience didn't go as expected, the response from the Printify team was very much appreciated. Thank you

Update: I received my second trial item, an AOP tote bag, and it was satisfactory: not amazing but not terrible. The print was crisp and the fabric/stitching seemed sturdy enough. The handles were a bit chewed up, as if the machine had nicked them when sewing, but they still seem sturdy. A bit large for a normal tote but there were other sizes offered so that's on me.

I love the choice and variety of products and the connecting to my Shopify store was easy. Okay the shipping part was a little difficult but once I got the hang of it it was smooth sailing. I would like to see some more options of choosing the ethnic group of the models for my mocking because 85% of my sales are to people of color and representation is very important to the culture.

Easy to use, i love the option for uploading a single design to all the products& uploading them can be in single products.

Love the new products, and support is very good, i had a problem with the new product editor, they fixed it in no time, well done!

Update after the new features added:
The new features CRUSHED & TRASHED my store.
Worked days and nights, I did nothing but work on the store and it was great.
Today i uploaded 3 new products with the new product editor.
I was excited to see new products and went ahead and created 3 products.
The new product editor is buggy, design size changed when i previewed in black color for example, and i don't understand why the editor now is with illustrated shirt.
Moving on- designs uploaded, description written, time to sync into Shopify.
From reason unknown i had collections with names i didn't have on my store, and my collections didn't show in Printify's site.
I hit sync and i see it's syncing all the collections with the weird names, where is the cancel button, where is the cancel button? No cancel button..
I couldn't do nothing to stop it, closing didn't as i watched all my work, all my products changing without me wanting them to change..

All in all i have mixed feeling with this one, Obviously what happen in my store doesn't imply to the rest, just look carefully when you sync new products and save product descriptions cause they reset if you sync them with the new editor.

easy to use, love the template ease of usability. the prices are a little high, makes it hard to make a profit for the designers

My prints were unfortunately not usable. I need crisp prints on poster sized paper, but they ended up being blurry. I sent my concerns to customer support, they were nice enough even though it took 2 days for a response, but it seems like there were no print experts around them to answer technical, but not too technical of questions. I was told we would try a second round of prints for free which was nice of them, but I still haven't received them, and I don't think it will matter. Printify isn't alone in this but shipping takes forever. I might test them again if I moved on to a different product, but for what I'm doing now they aren't great.

Awesome!! Gets better everyday!
