Bannerbuzz has sold signage since 2010 to an estimated 100,000+ businesses. 4OVER4.COM has printed since 1999 for 150,000+, and the two split widest on range and on ratings, 4.8 against 4.0 on Google.

Beyond the banner

Six things a banner-only printer leaves out

01

The handouts beside the banner

Bannerbuzz lists mostly signage. Here the door hangers, stickers, flyers, business cards and booklets for an event sit on the same account as the banner.

02

Paper stocks for the handouts

60+ paper stocks for the cards and flyers, including kraft, linen, cotton, pearl and ultra-thick 32pt cardstock.

03

Five written guarantees

Five guarantees cover quality, price match, on time every time, customer service and satisfaction, and the satisfaction guarantee is money back.

04

Coins on every order

Each order earns loyalty coins you redeem on later orders. The table shows no loyalty program at Bannerbuzz.

05

A published delivery record

4OVER4.COM publishes its on-time and ship-early rates, which the table shows Bannerbuzz does not, and same-day shipping runs on orders in by 12pm ET.

06

Premium finishes beyond banners

Matte, gloss, soft-touch lamination, spot UV, and foil stamping on the cards and marketing materials Bannerbuzz does not print.

1,000+ Products
60+ Paper stocks
99.8% On-time rate
10B+ Cards printed

Stock for the rest of the order

From 10pt postcards to 80pt cards

4OVER4.COM prints the vinyl, mesh, blockout and retractable banners Bannerbuzz is known for, so the gap shows on everything else. Business cards run from 13pt, about the thickness of a credit card, to 80pt, and standard postcards from 10pt to 26pt. 50 Black Business Cards start at $40.62 and 50 Standard Postcards at $16.48.

1

Pricing

The file review is already inside the base price of every order.

2

Quality

60+ paper stocks and a quality check on every order. Order free samples and feel the stock first.

3

Support

Real print experts and a free proof on every order, so nothing goes to press until it is right.

Materials and range

One account for the banner and the handouts

Paper and finish selection

Bannerbuzz keeps a short list of materials built around banners. Kraft, linen, cotton and pearl papers cover the cards and flyers that hand out beside the banner.

Product range

Banners, business cards, postcards, brochures, stickers, labels, booklets, door hangers, rack cards, and table tents, and the list keeps going. Bannerbuzz stays focused on signage, so ordering several product types from one printer saves you from juggling vendors.

Signage and everything else

A signage specialist against a full catalog printer

Bannerbuzz has sold banners and signage since 2010. 4OVER4.COM prints banners too, so the banner, the cards and the flyers for one event can come from one Queens plant.

What sits beyond the banner

Door hangers printed by 4OVER4.COM

Bannerbuzz covers banners and signage. When the same event also needs business cards, postcards, stickers or Custom Projects, 4OVER4.COM prints them beside the banner.

With 4OVER4.COM you put banners, cards, flyers, packaging and door hangers on one account, and Daily Deals take 35 to 40% off a rotating set of products.

How pricing compares to Bannerbuzz

Premium business cards printed by 4OVER4.COM

Compare the cost per piece at your real quantity, not the headline price. 4OVER4.COM prices in volume tiers, so the more you order the lower your cost per piece drops, and a lower written quote on the same specs goes to the price match. There are no hidden setup fees and no surprise charges at checkout.

For businesses that print regularly, every order also earns loyalty coins you redeem on later purchases.

Print quality that holds up, order after order

Premium brochures printed by 4OVER4.COM

On the banner side, vinyl banners take grommets at the corners or every 2 feet, hems on two or four sides, and pole pockets 2 or 4 inches deep, and every order runs through a quality check before it ships.

Whether you print vinyl banners for outdoor events or thick business cards for client meetings, you get output you can feel confident handing out. A code from the free QR code generator can go on any piece at no extra charge.

Banners beside the rest of the print

Bannerbuzz stays close to banners and signage. If the same job also needs business cards, postcards, flyers, stickers or packaging, a second vendor means a second proof and a second delivery to track. 4OVER4.COM keeps vinyl, mesh and retractable banners plus 2 Sided Blockout Banners on the same account as the cards.

Who should move their banner orders

Move if your event needs more than the banner, if your cards need kraft, linen or 32pt stock for the handouts, or if you reorder often enough for loyalty coins to add up. Five guarantees cover quality, pricing, delivery, service, and satisfaction.

The case for one printer, in four sentences

One printer means one proof cycle and one delivery for the whole event. Five guarantees cover every product on the order, the cards as much as the banner. Loyalty coins from each order lower the cost of the next one. To check the stock before you commit, order free samples.

4.8/ 5

The verdict

Keep Bannerbuzz for a banner-only order. Pick 4OVER4.COM when the event also needs cards, flyers and stickers, all on one account under five written guarantees.

Order vinyl banners

Sizes and materials

Banner materials and where each one belongs

Banner buying goes wrong when one material is asked to do every job. Four cover almost everything.

  • Vinyl is the default outdoor banner, printed on a heavy scrim that takes weather and hangs flat from grommets.
  • Mesh is vinyl with holes through it, so wind passes instead of turning the banner into a sail. It belongs on fences, scaffolding and any exposed site.
  • Blockout carries an opaque layer in the middle, which lets two different faces print back to back without one ghosting through the other.
  • Retractable banners live indoors, where the stand and the cassette matter more than weather resistance, which is why they suit trade shows and lobbies.

4OVER4.COM prints all four, so the banner and the flyers and the cards for one event come off a single order rather than three vendors.

The calendar

Booking a banner against an event date

A banner is almost always tied to a day, which makes the schedule part of the specification. Count backwards from the event rather than forwards from the order. Production days come first, then transit, then the time it takes somebody to actually hang the thing, which is the step people forget when the venue only opens on the morning itself.

Build in one more day than feels necessary for the proof, because a banner is the piece most likely to change late when a sponsor logo lands at the last minute. Many products here go into production the same day or the next, so the margin you leave is usually margin you keep.

Banner buyer questions

Common Questions

Nine answers for banner buyers weighing Bannerbuzz, from how long outdoor vinyl lasts to price matching on the same specs and blockout banners printed two sides. Browse every printing question on our FAQs hub.

What is better than Vistaprint?

Better depends on the job. For banners and signage the question is the material spec and the finishing, meaning hem, grommet spacing and whether the print is rated for outdoor use. For cards and marketing print it is the stock range and whether a proof is included. 4OVER4.COM covers both sides, with vinyl, mesh, blockout and retractable banners alongside cards and marketing print, under five written guarantees.

What has happened to Vistaprint?

The brand is still trading. A rumor is a poor basis for a print decision either way: compare the specification you are actually buying, which means material, size, finishing and turnaround, and check what each printer includes in the base price before you compare totals.

How long does a vinyl banner last outdoors?

A standard scrim vinyl banner printed with outdoor inks generally holds up for a year or two of continuous exposure, and longer if it comes down between uses and is rolled rather than folded. Sun does most of the damage, so a south facing wall ages a banner faster than a sheltered one. Wind does the rest, which is the argument for mesh on an exposed site.

Does 4OVER4.COM offer the same banner products as Bannerbuzz?

Yes. 4OVER4.COM prints vinyl banners, retractable banners, mesh banners, and 2 Sided Blockout Banners. The same account also orders business cards, stickers, flyers and postcards.

Is 4OVER4.COM cheaper than Bannerbuzz?

Pricing varies by product and quantity. 4OVER4.COM offers a price match guarantee, so a lower written quote on the same specs is matched and beaten by 10%. Loyalty coins from each order redeem against the next one.

How fast does 4OVER4.COM ship compared to Bannerbuzz?

4OVER4.COM maintains a 99.8% on-time delivery rate, and 82% of orders ship early. Many products offer same-day or next-day production. Turnaround depends on the product and quantity ordered.

Can I use my own designs when ordering from 4OVER4.COM?

Yes. Upload your own files or use the free design tools. You can also make a scannable code with the free QR code generator and add it to any print product at no extra charge.

What guarantees does 4OVER4.COM offer that Bannerbuzz does not?

Five guarantees: quality, price match, on time every time, customer service, and ultimate satisfaction. The satisfaction guarantee is money back, and a person answers on 718-932-2700.

Are there other printer comparisons I can review?

Yes. The full list of printer comparisons runs dozens of printers through the same rows as the table on this page.
