The $800 million dollar revenue opportunity partners are missing

There’s an $800 million dollar revenue opportunity too many partners are looking at as a mere afterthought –

Printing.

The paperless office is a distant dream. Enterprises will spend an estimated $891 million on print software in 2016. From bandwidth management, to encryption to simple print integration, enterprises need a solution that cuts the complexity and costs out of printing, truly enabling them to tap into the full potential printing has to offer. Channel partners that can offer these services will have a sharp competitive edge.

Leading provider of print management software, ThinPrint, makes this reality with its new partner program. Learn more here.

 

How to Print From Any Mobile Device to Any Printer

Why has printing become so complicated?

With printing on the go being such a basic and essential need, users need to overcome the limitations that make printing so complex… With so many printer models and specific printer drivers, each printer essentially speaks its own language. As a result, the various devices people print from can’t communicate with the printers.

ThinPrint Cloud Printer overcomes these limitations as it enables users to print any file type from any device to ANY printer.

Today, ThinPrint Cloud Printer announced that it makes printing wirelessly from anywhere to any printer easier than ever.

With ThinPrint Cloud Printer users can print instantly to any printer in their current Wi-Fi network. The new version of the app automatically shows available Wi-Fi printers and once a printer is selected, the printout is sent directly – without going through a PC or Mac.

EMM: Why Everyone is Getting it Wrong

What do you think the top concern for IT pros is? Most studies or surveys say security. It makes sense, considering the security threats personal devices and an increasingly mobile and remote workforce create. But, the industry has forgotten the purpose behind these devices and remote work: productivity.

Today’s mobility solutions focus so heavily on security that productivity is almost nonexistent.

Cortado announced Cortado Corporate Server 7.4 earlier this week to overcomes this.

Unlike any other EMM solution, Cortado provides the best possible security and productivity. New features and capabilities from Cortado that support this include:

  • The only solution to provide completely on-premise internal and external file sharing
  • A new user interface designed with complete focus on the user experience
  • Document push, which assures all employees have the most recent version at their fingertips
  • Expanded VPN capabilities, including always-on and per-app VPN
  • Secure user-authenticated mobile printing
  • Leverage of the latest iOS business innovations, including defining trusted web and e-mail domains for iOS 8 devices

How Cloud-based Service Providers Can Improve Printing

Cloud-based service providers face the challenge of delivering a product portfolio that fully meets the needs of customers’ mobile and remote workforces to truly differentiate their offerings. Many offer services focused on storage, file sharing and security. However, many miss the mark on one of the most basic, yet necessary cloud services – Printing.

To cater to the needs of cloud service providers and their customers, enterprise mobility leader Cortado announced last week that it has expanded the capabilities of its print management software, ThinPrint. This includes the addition of Cortado’s newest printing feature, ThinPrint Mobile Print. This enables users to print from iOS devices with every Windows Session and Windows-based virtual desktop, including Citrix Receiver and VMware Horizon.

Cortado also enhanced ThinPrint’s licensing and billing capabilities, making adoption of ThinPrint easy and time efficient. Licenses are not assigned to a user until ThinPrint is used, with this information instantly available in a sortable, easy-to-read report. Billing is organized on a monthly basis for quick access and simple invoicing.

Secure Mobile iOS Printing for the Enterprise

A key aspect of enterprise mobility that is often overlooked is printing. This is often overlooked because it is complex. However, there is an even bigger challenge – mobile printing. Mobile printing in enterprise environments has always been difficult, but there is an added element of complexity when printouts contain sensitive data.

To overcome this challenge, Cortado announced a new print function for enterprise environments this week. The new function, which will be a part of the new Cortado Corporate Server 7.4, will enable iPhone and iPad users to benefit from secure, user-authenticated, mobile printing on any available network printer. As a result, enterprises can save money, increase productivity and guarantee security.

How to Print with iOS from Any Windows Sessions

The fact that iPads and iPhones are widely used amongst mobile workers isn’t new. While so many workers have been and continue to use iOS devices, at the same time, they’re often using Windows. Until now, they were not able to perform one of the most basic and common of tasks – printing with an iOS device from a Windows session.

This week, enterprise mobility leader Cortado unveiled ThinPrint 10.6 to overcome this barrier. ThinPrint is THE solution for everything print related. The newest version includes ThinPrint Mobile Print. It is the first and only solution to enable users to print from iOS devices with every Windows session and any Windows-based virtual desktop, such as Citrix Receiver and VMware Horizon.

This shows that regardless of the OS or the platform, Cortado provides mobile workers and employees the freedom to choose the solution that best fit their needs. Full details on ThinPrint 10.6 are available here.
