Gone are the days of infinite emails with lost quotes and waiting on replies from suppliers and purchasing departments. Skip the back-and-forth — do it all online, instantly, with one unique tool. Sourcing custom parts has never been easier.
At Protolabs Network, we have created a flexible alternative to traditional manufacturing. Our latest release is a new quote sharing tool that makes it easier to create, edit, download, and share your quotes with anyone from your team.
How it works
Build and edit your quote instantly
You can now edit your quotes and create different iterations to compare material, finish, and bulk pricing. Each version of the quote can be downloaded and shared with your team or purchasing department.
Share your quote with colleagues
You can now share your quote with anyone from your team or purchasing department directly from the order page.
Simply click “share quote” to send a PDF quote, payment link, and a customized message to specified members of your team. You can also track who you have shared the quote with previously and send reminders directly from your order page. More about the quote management tool
Pay for your order the way you want to
Choose how you want to pay for your orders directly from the order page. Here you can also download a PDF version of the quote to share with your purchasing department for NET30 terms.
Follow your order every step of the way
You can now get a quick overview of your entire order history with Protolabs Network, including both active and inactive orders. Each order can be expanded to show more information and to track the real-time status of your parts.
How to Access it
Start by uploading your parts to the Protolabs Network platform. You can then build your custom quote by selecting your technology, finishes, lead time, and other specifications. Once complete, you will receive an instant quote for your project. When submitted you will be directed to the quote overview page, where you can instantly share, download or pay for your quote.
