How it's calculated

How Your Savings Are Calculated

  1. Insert Your Team's Hourly Value

    Designer cost, sales rep cost, opportunity cost, or outsourcing hourly rate.

  2. Apply the Savings Formula

    Monthly savings (EUR) = monthly hours saved × hourly value.

  3. Calculate the Payback Period

    Payback = TronDesigner cost ÷ monthly EUR recovered, converted to days.

FAQ

Savings Calculator Questions

How is this estimate calculated?

The calculator combines the hourly value you enter for your team with the typical time savings TronDesigner delivers on manual artwork prep, to project your monthly recovered hours, their euro value, and how long TronDesigner would take to pay for itself.

Is the result a guaranteed outcome?

No. It's an estimate based on the numbers you enter and typical results, not a guarantee for your specific catalogue or setup — actual savings depend on your products and print data.

What if I don't know my exact hourly rate?

Use your best estimate. An average hourly cost for a designer, a sales rep, or an outsourcing partner works well as a starting point.

What does TronDesigner cost?

It depends on which side of the order you are on, so each side has its own table: the supplier packages sit on the TronDesigner for suppliers page, the distributor packages on the TronDesigner for distributors page. Both are monthly packages, separated by how many Print Jobs and logo vectorisations are included each month, who designs alongside your team, and how far TronDesigner reaches into the systems you already run. The AI tools are priced separately as an add-on.
