An alliance between ECO3 and PlanProphet paves the way for the upcoming release of ECO3’s APOGEE IQ software, scheduled to launch in Q2 of 2027. Through this partnership, PlanProphet and ECO3 enable print service providers to minimise complexity, maximise output efficiency, and advance toward intelligent, connected production environments.
Print service providers face rising demands for efficiency, quick turnarounds, and tight alignment between business administration and production workflows. Surviving in a competitive market requires connected platforms that bridge customer relations, enterprise systems, and prepress automation to remove manual touchpoints throughout the entire order-to-delivery lifecycle.
Announced in September 2026 and debuting next year, APOGEE IQ is ECO3’s integrated platform designed for connected print production that extends automated workflow capabilities beyond traditional prepress. By partnering with PlanProphet, APOGEE IQ connects core production management with automated customer communication and business intelligence tools. This integration helps print service providers streamline operations across the entire workflow, connecting systems and enhancing both manufacturing efficiency and customer experience.
Connecting PlanProphet’s Print CRM (customer relationship management) and Growth Platform with ECO3’s reliable print automation production software creates a unified ecosystem for printers. Ultimately, this integration minimises administrative friction, enhances visibility across operations, and accelerates the shift toward intelligent, connected print production.
