"HP Piazza allows to propose solutions which directly influence the level of profitability of publishers and efficiency of their work. Thanks to Piazza the Ashford company pays more attention to supply chains, offering effective printing under the order and individual production of books. Respectively, it means permanent availability of the necessary books for publishers, and for us opens new opportunities for further strengthening of customer relations. We receive hundreds of direct orders for printing of the books which are stored in Piazza repository. We print thousands of books by the direct orders placed at publishers that saves from need of forecasting of sales". Rob Hutcheson, managing director of Ashford Colour Press

"In recent years we observe revival of popularity of paper books, at the same time publishers are under constant financial pressure that forces them to optimize warehouse stocks and to reduce delivery costs. Using Piazza, publishers and service providers of printing can meet the growing demand for paper books and pass from the "printing for the subsequent sale" model to the "printing of already sold book" model. Enrique Lores, president of division of Printing & Imaging, HP Inc.

The solution Piazza is optimized for use with the systems of digital printing HP PageWide and HP Indigo.
