"Works really well in our envirnment"

4.5/5

What do you like best about PaperCut?

The release stations work well in our school, allowing easy 'find me ' print queues to be enabled. Installation was not difficult and it prompts if setup in a virtual environment. There are frequent updates and these are easy to apply. It's good how staff and students can view their balances easily and release any held print jobs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PaperCut?

Not much. You normally need to go through your reseller for support, but I've been able to contact Papercut support when needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"PaperCut"

5/5

What do you like best about PaperCut?

Ease of use, user interface is clear to understand . PaperCut has a lot more functions than I have seen on other software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PaperCut?

Possibly better integration with other photocopier manufacturers rather than being installed on top of the printer software. I.e. Konica Minolta has better integration than Canon. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Hey there, thank you so much for your review! Appreciate the four stars, but disappointed you're not having a five star experience. My hunch is we may be able to suggest some ideas to help with your situation.

BUT... I do need to know which PaperCut product you're using before I can suggest those ideas. I'm guessing either PaperCut MF or PaperCut Hive.

If you could email me at marketing[@]papercut.com (or update your review with the version if you prefer), I can move ahead from there.

"Great service"

5/5

What do you like best about PaperCut?

Papercut was incredibly easy to set up in our environment. Managing the service is a breeze, and support is great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PaperCut?

Print notifications aren't bundled into the print deploy client, which is inconvenient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Alistair Nestor of PaperCut

Hello and thanks for your thoughts, Logan!

I appreciate your feedback regarding the print notifications. While we don't currently bundle the user client with Print Deploy, we understand that having a unified solution is more convenient. You can set up notifications using the PaperCut User Client, which is a separate small application that can be deployed to your users' desktops. This client provides real-time notifications about print jobs, account balances, and other system messages. You can find more information about this in our knowledge base: https://www.papercut.com/help/manuals/ng-mf/clienttool/user-client/

So to be clear, that would mean installing clients on each user's computer (the Print Deploy client AND the user client).

Thanks again for your review and for hanging out with us!

"Papercut has reduced the number of hands on hours."

5/5

What do you like best about PaperCut?

Installation went well and the product works very well. End users are able to walk up to any of the printers in the corporation and print...this has resulted in a huge time savings for our building level technicians who were spending hours adding printers to end users. Now it's just add one printer and the end users are happy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PaperCut?

I haven't found anything I dislike about papercut at this time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is PaperCut solving and how is that benefiting you?

Papercut has solved two major issues for us. The first is being able to correctly track the number of prints a user runs. This has helped us track down our abusers which has resulted in few prints being run. The second issue is the number of hands on hours the technicians were speding adding printers to end uesers and managing rights to printers. Now our technicians add on printer to the end user device during setup and they are done. They also no longer have to worry about adding the end user to the management software as we have things integrated with MS Entra, so that when a user is created on the network, the new user is added to Papercut via a sync.

"The easiest print deployment tool ive ever used."

4.5/5

What do you like best about PaperCut?

Although papercut may be intended for well cutting paper, the most useful feature is its print deployment. I work in a mixed environment of PC, Mac, and ChromeOS. Papercuts "print depoy" has you covered. Updating drivers is a breeze, adding new devices is just as easy. With SSO support authentication is super easy for the end user. If someone has a printer issue, just refresh your printers. From an IT point of view this makes deployment and management super quick and easy. Papercut is worth every penny just for the ease of use for end users. Gone are the days of running from building to building just to get your people printing again. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PaperCut?

While someone of this is just an issue with the OSX handles certain things deployment of print deploy is a bit of hassle to get going through your mdm. If that process could be streamlined I would be happy to up my rating to a ten. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great Product, Great Future Potential"

5/5

What do you like best about PaperCut?

Fantastic features, works across all of our sites, and on many different vendors equipment. PaperCut simplifies our user experience and gives us the auditing we need. Its really easy to implement and allows us to focus on our carbon reduction, while allowing people to do their jobs, it has lots of features and we use all of them across a number of different use cases Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PaperCut?

Move to the cloud, we think that PaperCut Hive will be just as awesome as Papercut MF, but we really need to get further information and support on the migration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
