Accura Alternative - How Printlogic Compares to Accura
Accura (also marketed as Accura360) is a UK-based Print MIS that combines CRM, estimating, production, and Web2Print in a single system from one vendor. It has been in the market for around 37 years and positions itself at mid-to-large print businesses that want everything under one roof. Printlogic covers the same workflow - estimating, job management, production, invoicing, Web2Print - on a fully cloud-native platform with a monthly subscription, no contracts, and no upfront investment. This page compares both systems across the areas that matter most to print businesses evaluating MIS software.

Where Accura wins
- Native CRM with email client sync (Outlook and G-Suite) built directly into the MIS
- Strong one-vendor story - CRM, MIS, and Web2Print share a single database
- Long track record - 37+ years serving print businesses
- Dedicated account manager included
Where Printlogic wins
- Fully cloud-native - no ambiguity about deployment, access from any browser
- Monthly subscription, no upfront fees - Accura's pricing model is not publicly disclosed
- Free onboarding and training included - no additional implementation cost
- Print broker management built in - Accura does not cover this workflow
- Faster implementation - typically days, not weeks
- Independently owned - same as Accura, both free from acquisition risk
The Bottom Line
Accura is a well-established system with a genuine strength: the CRM, MIS, and Web2Print share one database, which removes the integration overhead that comes from stitching together separate tools. For larger print businesses that run an active sales team and need Outlook or G-Suite connected directly to their MIS, that's a meaningful advantage. Printlogic covers the same core MIS and Web2Print workflow on a transparent monthly subscription with free onboarding and support. Where Printlogic has the clear edge is print broker management, cloud-first architecture, and pricing transparency. If you run a mid-to-large commercial print business with a busy sales team, both systems are worth a demo. If you run a print brokerage or a business where cloud access and predictable monthly costs are the priority, Printlogic is the stronger fit.
