    The best case we've found for Vasion's PrinterLogic is the one that explains why we moved to Vasion's PrinterLogic in the first place. Our Windows print servers were extremely temperamental for our Azure devices and, in many cases, would take 20 minutes or more to just set up correctly. We would then have issues with printers not printing for long periods or with print jobs not showing up in the printer queue. It was also hard for the staff to install their own printers when the one they normally used went down. It was also very hard for staff to figure out how to navigate the printer list to install printers. Vasion's PrinterLogic made all of this very easy and gave the staff one easy web page to find the printer they want and install it.

    When I get any pdf form to fill, I use this software to fill in all the required details. It is very easy to fill any form in pdf format in this software. Whenever I need to sign any official document digitally, I use this software. It also helps us to protect our confidential documents with password protection. We add passwords to our confidential documents with the help of this software.

    Pros
    Vasion
    • MaxxVault is a full-featured product at a cost significantly less than its competition.
    • MaxxVault is end-user maintainable. I do not have to carry an IT staff to support this critical system.
    • MaxxVault has the best customer service support of any vendor I've done business with in my 20 year career.

    • OCR comes in handy when you need to scan a document image for embedded text for edits. This feature is a common tool but the accuracy of OCR helps for quick edits.
    • Conversion options are a plus and a must-have when you need to convert between Microsoft Office and PDF.
    • During the pandemic, the ability to offer digital signing with personalized signatures is a major plus. Glad to have this tool available when needed.

    Usability
    Vasion
    I would say its around 7. For us it was easy to do deploy, to use the centralised control, and not too complex compared to other printing services. However, some workflows became complicated depending on configuration. In our case, it was a bit complicated after a while. But its still user friendly.

    Vasion's PrinterLogic had a much better interface for installing printers for staff. It was very easy for staff to manage their own printers and install what they want or need. Vasion's PrinterLogic also seemed to be better equipped for reporting and use by our non-technical staff. We were also impressed with the support of Vasion's PrinterLogic and how easily they answered all of our questions.

    I tried Smallpdf for sometime. It is also a very good tool for pdf related tasks but it doesn't provide a comprehensive functionality to edit a pdf document. I couldn't modify the text of my pdf documents in Smallpdf. But SodaPDF gives me the functionality to edit/change the text of my pdf documents. So I shifted from Smallpdf to this software.

    Return on Investment
    Vasion
    • Having seen similar organizations implement software solutions costing upwards of $1 million, I can safely say the ROI on our MaxxVault implementation has paid off massively for our customers and staff. We could not do what we're doing without MaxxVault.

    • A recent project came across my desk where we had to recreate static files into editable word documents. Thank goodness for the OCR feature. It made for an almost flawless conversion. Minor edit here and there, no fault of the program. It was more due to the file quality of the original scan. Saved me time.
    • The feedback option is another plus: The review/comment function is great for easily getting document feedback. We just started using this feature. Another time-saver.
    • Document management due to file conversion options makes it easier to keep documents all in one place. Also, the ability to share these documents with coworkers is a major plus!
