Packaging artwork management software vs. generic tools
Why packaging artwork management software beats generic tools | Cway

When it comes to managing packaging design, standard document systems simply don’t keep up. In today’s global, fast-moving markets, teams need packaging artwork management software built for the complexities of modern workflows—like artwork development, regulatory compliance, and vendor coordination.

The Problem with Off-the-Shelf Document Systems

Generic tools aren’t made for the detail-driven world of packaging artwork. They typically lack:

  • Built-in artwork workflows

  • Version control and traceability

  • Regulatory checkpoints

  • Support for multi-market rollouts (Colombia, Comoros, Congo, and beyond)

If your team is managing packaging across regions or working with multiple vendors, a one-size-fits-all solution just won’t cut it.
