Serv-U was a Great Purchase for our Company
Score 10 out of 10
Vetted Review

- Prior to Serv-U installation, customers either emailed files which was very messy (large numbers of rejected transmissions due to file sizes being over the limit) or drove in and dropped off files on "disk" of some sort. Newspapers were sent to us with a single page PDF attached to each of multiple emails (up to 36 pages for some). Serv-U reduced our workload by at least 80% in terms of the time spent gathering the customer's pages for our PrePress system to work on.
