Officially tweet-announced by Google for Education Ā a couple days ago, our new partnership with the tech legend will see us make a lot of wonderful things for Google-based workplaces.
We canāt spill the beans just yet, but thereāll definitely be some happy sysadmins when PaperCut 18.3 releases in November. š
Meanwhile, to get you up to speed, hereās a wrap of the recent press release announcing the, uh, announcement.
To recapā¦
ā¦ Weāre a Google Premier Partner! *crowd goes low-key wild*
It means weāll be working our spools off to deliver cutting-edge printing solutions for G Suite, Google Cloud Identity, and Chromebook users.
With 20 yearsā experience in education, we feel this marriage was pretty destined ā but weāre still incredibly psyched about it. And so is Willem Groenewald, our Senior Product Manager.
āItās something weāve been working on closely with Google ā giving schools easy Chromebook printing ā so the partnership makes a lot of sense. We feel weāre solving this problem better than anyone,ā Willem says proudly.
Kicking goals with Mobility Print
Integrating our BYOD solution Mobility Print with G Suite/Cloud Identity is just one of the ways weāre really making an impact.
How? Well, it lets users print easily from any device ā Chromebooks included ā via its native interface. So everything’s smooth and natural from the get-go.
Better yet, with the number of active Mobility Print-using Chromebooks recently hittingĀ 1 million,Ā itās already delivering amazing results in the real world ā and for real clients.
Take Dallastown Area School District (DASD) andĀ how they solved Chromebook printing for over 6,000 students :
āI can push a policy out with G Suite and know everyone will get it," says DASD sysadmin John Lenhart.
“Itās the same with PaperCut. Within 10 minutes, all our Chromebooks had it [Mobility Print]ā¦ I didnāt have a single Chromebook printing issue all year.ā
A partnership with serious potential
Weāre beyond excited to get some new Google goodies in your hands with 18.3. But what the future holds is the real tickler.
āBeing a Premier Partner lets us go even further to take frustration and waste out of everyday printing,” says Willem.
“Itās great because staff and students can focus on what really matters: learning. I feel itās only going to lead to more success stories for PaperCut and Google.ā
So stay tuned for 18.3, ācause if youāre a Google-y workplace, youāre absolutely gonna love all the sweet stuff coming your way.
