    If you need to have complex options in place you can count on Weblogic to be a robust Applicational Server you can rely on. But you would need to keep an eye on maintaining the framework updated quite frequently to avoid security breaches and subsequent severe situations. If you don't have other infrastructure for test purposes, I wouldn't advise you on having devs and QA installing this heavy application in their local machines, there are other lightweight solutions that would be a better fit for that.

    For environments that have multiple different departments or programs that would like to have printing costs tracked. The exact costs per page printed can be changed within the software - so exact costs can be calculated and billed back appropriately. It also makes printer management easier as you can see toner levels and any issues the printer may have remotely without having to utilize the printers GUI at all. Scan to folder/email options can be done on the admin side, so that it makes things easier for users

    Pros
    Oracle
    • The brand relation between Java and WebLogic Application Server usually provides a quicker access to programming features and their availability for the applications deployed.
    • The access to centralized configuration both from console and command line WLST eases the implementation of changes major or not in an organized and expedite way.
    • The maturity of the product is also visible in the available tools provided by the product itself, for both monitoring of resources and alerting for availability and thresholds

    • Centralized printing via virtual hold / release queues.
    • Confidential and secure printing via card authentication.
    • Scan to folder/email integration with Active Directory.
    • Printer specific scripting actions give you a ton of options. The canned scripts are super helpful as they are prebuilt and need very little modification.
    • Overall printing reports are very informative.
    • Mobility Print gives you a great solution for printing from Chromebook devices.

    Cons
    Oracle
    • Debugging issues has been difficult sometimes, the documentation is too dense and finding the the root cause for an specific issue takes time.
    • The Oracle WebLogic Server console UI feels old and gives a sense of lack of innovation even though it provides so much functionality.
    • I'm not sure if Oracle WebLogic Server supports more modern frameworks, but it feels more like a Java EE specific, maybe there's an opportunity there to appeal to newer application platforms

    Usability
    Oracle
    Oracle WebLogic Server has so many features that sometimes it's hard to find the right place to setup things, I think the dated user interface does not help with that either. This has a direct impact when deciding to use it as your application server, you'd need to have the right people and invest the time needed to master it. If you're application justifies it then it will definitely be a great choice in the long run.

    PaperCut is simply a solid product. PaperCut has been the ignition our company needed to take control of our budgets and also our carbon footprint. Through software we can manage our printing network with greater efficiency, reduce costs and enable our end users to take responsibility for their printing habits in a controlled way. The software is easy to deploy and integrates well with our windows based systems. We can easily delegate more advanced controls to power users and the controls are compatible with all major MFD hardware vendors.

    The Oracle support is not great sometimes. They take a long time and need a lot of data over and over to resolve issues.

    The user community for PaperCut is smaller than other products we use in HR, IT, marketing and project management. We had an account manager assigned to us. Whenever we had any issues we would email him. The account manager was acting as an interface with the developers and other teams. The response times were reasonable.

    I believe the Oracle WebLogic Suite is probably a better all encompassing suite of development tools for the IT department. [It] is probably a bit more expensive than other competitors like Apache Tomcat or NGINX, but is worth the investment if you consider the savings from time to get code into production.

    Return on Investment
    Oracle
    • WebLogic Application Server definitely had a positive ROI since all the applications are deployed on a single platform and making maintenance extremely cost effective.
    • Since all major cloud vendors support and maintain WebLogic, it gives us an opportunity to explore possibilities to move the organizational infrastructure on to the cloud without too much effort.
