As life-changing advancements in technology create drastic changes across enterprise environments, new technology has brought about new and innovative ways of getting work done, anywhere, and at anytime!

Initially, the advent of mobile phones and tablets provided users with great versatility and mobility in accomplishing their work-related tasks.

However, with significant recent developments in artificial intelligence (AI) and other information capturing and analysis technologies, today, the modern workplace is equipped with tools to drive productivity to levels that have never been achieved prior!

The future of enterprise computing lies in the cloud!  Cloud computing offers enhanced flexibility and scalability, with the ability to adapt and expand as dictated by enterprise requirements, while allowing organizations to reduce the IT infrastructure that they deploy, leading to reduced IT support costs.

With cloud computing also streamlining file and document access from anywhere, it has enabled greater collaboration amongst employees within an organization and across various departments, leading to increased productivity.

However, with all of the positives that cloud computing brings along, printing from the cloud has been a lingering issue for many enterprises!

In today’s corporate world, decision makers are constantly looking for ways to improve their organizational efficiency through the effective adoption and implementation of the latest technologies.

With printing being an integral part of many enterprise workflows and processes, vendors in the managed print services industry introduced “pull printing”, a secure printing mechanism which only permits authorized users to obtain their hardcopy documents from printers.

Pull printing consists of users sending print jobs from their workstations to be stored on a virtual print queue within a print server.

As the global trend towards cloud based solutions increases, enterprises are starting to look to the cloud and software as a service (SaaS) for answers to all of their problems.

With printing being an integral part of day to day business across most enterprises, cloud print management definitely provides answers to many of the problems that organizations encountered with traditional enterprise print management.

Enterprises often conduct audits to ensure that they are meeting compliance requirements and efficiently making their way towards achieving their goals.

Audits provide organizations with suggestions as to where they can improve in their business processes, and often deliver valuable information assisting organizations in meeting their objectives.
