About PaperCut
PaperCut makes server-based and cloud-based print management software that offers solutions for businesses of all sizes to manage print security, cost control, and more. The software is built to work with all printer brands and platforms, and enables native printing from any device, including iOS, Android, and Chromebooks
PaperCut's Mobility Print solution allows users to print from their own devices, including mobile devices, without worrying about driver downloads. The correct drivers are deployed automatically to users based on their device and location. Secure release of print jobs protects documents by requiring users to verify their identity to release and collect print jobs, and digital signatures and username watermarks can be used to promote responsible document handling through document ownership.
PaperCut includes more than 75 built-in reports which provide users with insight into their organization's printing activity, and custom reports can also be created to answer specific queries. Activity dashboards also offer an at-a-glance view of important metrics. PaperCut allows administrators to set individual or team print quotas and limits to control printing funds, and policies can be implemented to remind users to print in grayscale or duplex.

We've been using PaperCut for just over a year, replacing our previous system, PCounter. After the initial setup, we haven't experienced many issues but when we have, their support has been great. From a support perspective it has enabled us to carefully track usage and issues, complete with automatically generated summary reports on a monthly basis.
Pros
Excellent reports
Huge amount of customisation
Support for multiple departments for users
Useful integration with multi-function devices
Cons
Despite having a detailed audit for print jobs, there is no way built in to re-send those jobs if they fail (we wrote our own).

We've realized no benefit from the product. We've only realized a tremendous loss on our investment and continue to do so.
Pros
The product stops working constantly. Since we have had this product the only thing consistent about it, is that it won't work and that we will lose money on lost counts of print/copy charges. The response for repair is slow and often is a temporary fix. I will never be able to recover the money lost on this product. I would absolutely advise a small business owner to avoid this product. There are no pros, only cons.
Cons
If the product worked as advertised that would be an improvement. When the product doesn't work, it also impedes one's ability to use the printers.

PaperCut MF
Reviewed on 19/01/2024
Pros
I think the ease, diversity and flexibility of using the product. It is intuitive to use and alongside their support documentation is a simple product to setup, edit and administrate.
Cons
The product seems to be best in a single domain environment as by default users are authenticated via username prefix and in a multi-user domain this can cause issues.

It works well and integrates well with Microsoft Windows, the everyday management is easy just some of the lesser everyday tasks are harder to do but with the right reseller for happy its a great product with regular security updates/fixes
Pros
Simple to use from a users perspective with assigning jobs to different departments (if your in more than one) and easy management of setting budgets for users in the admin section
Cons
So of the UI isn't straight forward and not how you would expect to access certain functions immediately, but if you poke around you can normal work it out.
