Price anything

FrameSmart has the most advanced, yet simple to use pricing set-up.

Allows you to easily price any framing job, including fillets in mats, multiple opening mats, floated mats, box framing, multiple stacked frames; and allows for reveals, framefillets, reverse bevels, v-grooves, wash lines and any other possible framing combination.

Allows up to 10 stacked frames and ten layers of mats (not that you would need that many).

Creates invoices or sales orders straight from the pricing screen, plus added items for prints, ready-made frames and other stock or gallery items.

Save time

Doesn’t require you to make phone calls to suppliers chasing up material price lists – the software updates price lists automatically on demand.

Doesn’t require import wizards for price lists or messing about with saving price list attachments from emails.

Advises customers of completed work by SMS and/or email (optional).

Uses barcoding technology to quickly enter moulding and mat codes, or product codes for art supplies and other stock items for sale on the same invoice as framing work (optional).
