Why is PaperCut the ideal solution for an education establishment?

history...

PaperCut was developed 8 years ago in conjunction with network technicians and staff from a number of education establishments. We now also target the business market, however education still remains our number one priority.

design...

Our education customers play a big part in current development. All new features are defined, prioritised and ranked by our key education customers.

functionality...

The education IT environment is unique. User turnover is high and networks are dynamic. PaperCut includes many features for administration streamlining including:
  - rules for automatic account creation
  - automatic scheduling of credit and quotas
  - simple web-based administration for office staff
  - 100% server based implementation

stability...

PaperCut has been in production-use on networks with many thousands of users for over 7 years. It has proven scalability and stability. PaperCut NG takes this one level further with new features allowing scaling to 20,000+ users!

cost...

Server applications can be costly. PaperCut's price and licensing model is structured so organizations of all sizes can benefit from the quota system. The per-user licence ensures multiple-server networks are not penalized for their existing structure. There are no yearly contracts or fees.

simplicity...

We try to make PaperCut simple to use, yet provide the power needed for flexible administration. PaperCut is renowned for its straightforward install and easy-to-use interface. Some highlights include:
  - self applying security permissions upon install
  - no backend databases to configure
  - automatic user account importing from Active Directory groups or organizational units
  - zero install deployment for optional client software
