All looks good to go > > it was great experience ----- ### "Excellent Printing Management" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *22 November 2019* | Higher Education | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I truly like that this software makes you think twice about printing by displaying the total cost to print your request. Budgeting allows you to charge printing jobs to specific departments. The built in reminders that you can print double-sided or in black and white to save money are helpful as well. > > **Cons**: There are few things that I can think of that I would change about the product. It occasionally freezes and needs to be reset or has issues opening when used via a VPN. These issues are minor and infrequent. > > We were hoping to reduce the number of documents that we printing. This product was crucial in meeting those goals. ----- ### "Some connection problems but an overall good software." — 3.0/5 > **Daniel** | *19 March 2018* | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: Once you get connected it is as simple as can be: connect, hit print, go to the printer, log in, and print. There is an ID card reader that allows students/employees quick and painless access. Once logged into the printer there are a variety of functions. > > **Cons**: I had quite a few connection issues. You must be on the specific WiFi network and if there is a problem logging into that you cannot connect. I was able to see our IT team and fix the error, but later I was randomly removed from the printer network and had the same connection issue all over again. You also must connect separately to the black and white function and the color function on your laptop. > > Quick and painless (once connected) printing. ----- ### "Take control of your company's printing" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *4 February 2019* | Primary/Secondary Education | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Very easy to setup. Integrates with Microsoft Active Directory and gives you tons of different options to allow your users to print. Mobility printing is a game changer, especially if you have a lot of visitors to your company that may need to print but you don't want to give them the keys to your kingdom. There are many different reports you can run depending on what kind of data you need to look at. Web interface means I can manage it from wherever. > > **Cons**: Lots of sub-menus. Sometimes the thing you want to do is buried under numerous tabs inside of other pages. The software does have a search feature which helps and after you spend some time in the software, you'll figure out where everything is. > > Papercut has revolutionized the way we handle printing in a K-12 school environment. Gone are the days of wondering who just printed a 500 page document--Papercut keeps track of it all. ----- ### "A cut above the rest." — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *30 December 2018* | Legal Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: PaperCut is a strong enterprise level "follow me print" application that allows you to easily deploy and maintain a centralized printer fleet. This application helps reduce waste, enforce security policies, and provide centralized support/administration for IT. > > **Cons**: So far I haven't found many cons. There have been some dififculty adapting some devices onto the application's printer drivers, but, the issues have been resolved with excellent product and technical support from the PaperCut team. > > Our company was attempting to centralize printing (removing deskside printers), cut down on waste, and streamline printing to several large machines over several offices. ----- Page: 1 / 4\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/145309/papercut?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/145309/papercut) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | fr | | ----- ## Structured Data
