    PaperCut actually has more features and works better than Vasion's PrinterLogic from a copier standpoint. In my opinion, where Vasion's PrinterLogic works better though is that it had better compatibility for our Apple Mac users. It also has a cool feature that lets you place …

    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

    Great for users that frequently travel between offices. Users can log into their device and get the "local" printer installed based on their subnet. Alternatively, users can choose to send their print to their folder to be accessed on whichever printer they choose. It does this securely which is great for folks in healthcare settings

    Pros
    PaperCut Software
    • 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.

    • We would like to move all of our print accounting into Vasion's PrinterLogic, but there are some features we use in Pharos that Vasion's PrinterLogic is still building out.
    • The repository can get a little unwieldy if too many people are adding drivers. An internal check to see if a driver for a particular printer is already available would be a nice feature.
    • Direct authenticated release of print jobs from the printer device would be a nice feature.

    Hands down one of our best investments for our IT staff. This has saved so much time and frustration and it well worth the cost. If the budget starts to gets tight, this is one of the last things we would cut out. We also purchased this through our copy machine vendor so it's nice that the charge is integrated with our copy machines lease

    PaperCut Software
    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.

    Interface has been very easy to use and figure out. Reports to see printer usage is helpful in finding or relocating printers that are over/under utilized and can save funds on continually supplying printers where maybe better utilizing the equipment already deployed will provide cost savings. Being able to make a change in one place and that change is replicated to all devices has been nice and easy to do.

    A colleague has reported a performance issue with loading printer profiles on Edge. It sometimes takes a very long time to come up, and sometimes not at all, but he switches over to Chrome, and the interface comes up very quickly. This might be a fringe case, since I am able to launch the same profile on Edge browser without any problems.

    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.

    Whenever I've contacted Vasion's PrinterLogic support the responses are always rapid and thorough. The support staff is knowledgeable and always happy to answer any questions I have.

    This doesn't apply since I haven't used another printer management tool, app, or system. Vasion's PrinterLogic is the only one we actually used here in our school district. I don't have the ability to select different companies or vendors, but with my experience with this software, it's been hands down the best. Especially for managing all of our copiers here in the school.

    • Mostly the only thing we deal with on printers now is the physical printer issues.
    • There were no calls about everyone's printers not working when the print server went down, as there is no print server!
    • Making it easy for the users to be able to install their own printer.
