About

Commercial printing: Founded in 2006 by David and René Gagnon, Allura provides offset, digital, large-format, packaging, and book-printing services for brands, publishers, and independent authors. Multi-stage production: Each job moves through ordering, pre-press, printing, binding, finishing, and delivery. Customer visibility: Clients depend on timely, accurate updates throughout production.

The challenge

Fragmented job information

Production details and progress needed a more structured home.

Resource coordination

Staff and equipment had to stay aligned across every production stage.

Separate service work

Print-project management and customer support needed one operating view.

The implementation

Every job as a ticket

Allura moved print jobs into HappyFox for consistent tracking.

Shared status visibility

Operations and sales could follow each job through production.

Clutter-free handling

A clutter-free interface and color-coded statuses made work easy to identify, with two clicks to change a job’s status.

Direct customer answers

The team could find project status without reconstructing it across systems.

Results and benefits.

Anywhere access

The production board became a ticketing workflow available wherever the team worked.

Stronger collaboration

Operations and sales shared one view of print-job progress.

Faster status updates

Customer questions could be answered from current project information.

Operational visibility

HappyFox became part of how Allura monitored day-to-day business activity.
