HRIS Manager
4.0

Shreshthi M.: My name is Shreshthi. I'm HRIS manager. I am going to review PaperCut printing software today. My rating for that software is four out of five. For more reviews like this, please click below. PaperCut helps us monitor our printing jobs and it helps minimize waste. It helps us analyze and forecast the ordering of our printing supplies. It also helps us see how individuals or departments are utilizing the company resources, analyze trends, and take suitable actions to minimize wastage when necessary. I really like the confidentiality aspect of the software. When many people are using a common printer in a company, there is some amount of information spillover, which in certain situations is disastrous, especially when confidential information of people is visible. There is a chance of data breaches also. With PaperCut, employees need to use their badge or authorized code to get printouts and it is more secure. Everything about the software is great. One of the cons that I can think of is that people feel like they're being watched or their print jobs are being monitored. Secondly, it is difficult to update a print job once it has been sent over, you need to cancel and start all over again. So these are certain things, it'll be nice to have if the vendor can think about it as they continue to develop the software further.
