The IDC MarketScape noted, “Regardless of company size, organizations in search of guidance about what degree of cloud is necessary or appropriate should consider PaperCut, whose offerings are strong along all stages of an organization’s journey toward cloud print management.”
“Print management solutions have historically been a laggard in cloud adoption, but as organizations’ IT departments desire to extend digital transformation efforts to include print management, the functionality and robustness of cloud-based offerings has become increasingly important. At the same time, the market is shifting toward SaaS-based pricing models to meet organizations’ desire for predictable budgeting and flexibility,” says Geoffrey Wilbur, Research Manager, Imaging, Printing and Document Solutions at IDC.
“PaperCut offers a comprehensive suite of print management solutions designed to meet the needs of customers of different sizes and with varying print management needs, which landed the company in the Leaders category of this IDC MarketScape in 2024 and previously in 2021.”
