Pacdora

Pacdora calls itself a full solution for packaging design and production: the 3D mockup, the dieline and small print runs of custom boxes and pouches.

You get a PNG or JPG and a share link, and on a paid plan a video of the model turning or the dieline in Illustrator, PDF or DXF format.

Wannathis

Wannathis makes premium mockup sets, packaging among them: boxes, bottles, cans, skincare and coffee cups. Each set is a series of art-directed scenes in one style.

You put your design into the scene in Figma or Photoshop. Every set is in Pro Access, and so is the right to use them for clients.

Key differences between Pacdora and Wannathis

3D renders or art-directed scenes

In Pacdora your design goes on a 3D model, a clean render on a plain background. Its scene templates aside, the setting around the box is yours to style.

Wannathis sets come art-directed, with the composition, the light and the textures worked out, like burl wood, silver trays and a chessboard. Your packaging looks premium long before it is printed.

All the scenes of a set share one style, so a whole case study can come from one set. New packaging sets keep coming, and you can browse them in packaging mockups.

Structure: dielines, sizes and 3D

Here Pacdora leads. It makes the dieline you send to print, fits many box models to your measurements, offers materials such as kraft or white board, and turns the model so you can check every side.

Wannathis does none of this. Its scenes show the finished packaging at set angles, and some sets let you change the color of the box or the bottle.

What you download

You save pictures from Pacdora and, on a paid plan, videos of the model and the dieline. To change the design later, you go back to the project in your Pacdora account.

With Pro Access you download the scene as a file, and most packaging sets come only as PSD. Packaging opens in Figma or Photoshop rather than the online editor, and the next round of your design goes into the same file.

Price and license

Pacdora charges per seat. In the EU, Pro is €189 a year (or €26 billed monthly) and is for personal use only. Business, with commercial use and resale, is €640 a year (or €89 billed monthly).

Wannathis Pro Access is $144 a year or $78 a quarter for one person, with commercial use for companies of up to 10 employees, client work included. Beyond 10 employees there is Wannathis Business, and any set is also sold on its own.

Choose Pacdora if

  • You are working on the structure of the box and need its dieline for print.
  • Your box has an exact size the mockup must match.
  • You want to spin the packaging in 3D or share it as a video.
  • You want to compare materials and finishes before you print.

Choose Wannathis if

  • The picture has to sell the packaging.
  • You want every picture of a case study in one style.
  • You want the Figma or PSD file to reuse for the next version.
  • You show packaging to clients and need the license for it.
  • You need business cards, signs and billboards for the same brand.
  • You need one set and would rather buy it once.

Pacdora vs Wannathis: questions

No. Wannathis makes mockups that show the finished packaging, and it has no dieline tool. Pacdora makes dielines, and its paid plans export them for the printer.
