"It does a great job, is easy to use,
has given us no problems, and has saved
us countless reams of paper and piles of
toner."

"Well done on producing the best print
charging solution I have used! PaperCut
is fast, reliable and easy to manage. The
advanced charging options provide excellent
flexibility and the web administration interface
is the icing on the cake."

"I've gotta say PaperCut is great and
I've been singing its praises to other departments.
The reports quickly show me printer usage
at a glance, which I use frequently to more
accurately place orders for toner and paper.
I used to throw thousands of pages into
the recycling bin every day because of unclaimed
printouts, but overnight its been whittled
down to a couple reams! Aside from the money
saved on toner/paper, I stand to save thousands
reducing the number of lab attendants since
these TopUp cards can be sold by our department
receptionist or in one of our vending areas.
I no longer need technical staff to supervise
printing full time!" David,

"We have used several products over
the last 9 years to manage our student
printing, but always had to compromise
on the features to get the best product
for our budget. PaperCut NG is easily
the most cost effective with its low price
and enterprise standard features that
you would find on products costing thousands.
We recoup the cost of printing, and can
use features such as price reductions
on the cost of duplex printing to encourage
more environmentally friendly usage.
"PaperCut NG adds a completely new and
intuitive web interface to the product
which allows for support staff to check
and manage the printers from any computer
on the network. With the setup wizard,
you can have a fully deployed print quota
system in less than 5 minutes!
"The reports allow students to view their
print history easily and support staff
can use it to view the busiest printers
(along with many other reports). We can
now sell top-up cards in the shop and
bar so that students can add print credit
themselves.
"Finally, when we have had problems and
questions, the support has been nothing
short of excellent. Nothing was too big
or small and the developers work with
you to find the solution to your complete
satisfaction. In short, an excellent product
from an excellent company - my only complaint
is that we didn't find it sooner..."

"We have a network for about 60 students.
We replaced 2 printers in our student computer
lab last year and spent hundreds of francs
on consumables. We tried everything to recoup
costs from an honor system deposit box to
quarterly fees built into usage cost. None
worked. Since installing Papercut, we have
been able to recover ALL of our printing
costs and build more accountability that
has dramatically reduced wasted paper usage.
And the printers don't get abused all the
time!
"I continue to be shocked at the usability
and simplicity of Papercut. It has the
ability to control so much, yet the program
is so simple. The daily administration
is almost non-existent. By using the Top-Up
card feature, we sell prepaid cards in
our snack bar and the students credit
their accounts via the web interface themselves.
It is truly an "auto-pilot" program.
"Kudos for a product well designed! I
highly recommend anyone to this program."

"Thanks to your marvellous product we
have saved over 300 pounds in the last month
on people doing unauthorised printing. Your
great support during our testing phase ensured
an already straightforward deployment was
achieved with the greatest of ease."

"PaperCut tech support is phenomenal!
The support staff has always been friendly,
helpful and quick to respond. We run a
complicated operation that covers 27 printers,
5 sites, 5 print servers and over 1000
users. PaperCut staff helped us configure,
troubleshoot and fine-tune our installation.
Thanks to their help, we have been able
to maximize the value of this product
to save hundreds of dollars!
"The first day it was installed it stopped
a 1000 page erroneous print job to a remote
network printer. Since then, our costs
have plummeted. This is one of the best
technology investments we have made!"

PaperCut seamlessly took control of our
recently purchased HP Laserjet 2100 printer.
It was extremely easy to add users. I have
already seen that the students are becoming
more responsible fitting more work onto
a single sheet by using columns, a smaller
font, and changing the margins; they are
learning to do better word-processing..."
Aaron, Strathmore

"We have been using PaperCut for since
1999 and have cut our toner and paper usage
in half. The user enquiry tool encourages
the students to be economical and responsible
in the printer use. Waste bins near the
printer are almost empty. We have found
PaperCut very easy to set up and maintain
for our 1000+ users. With the account creation
rules and auto scheduling, PaperCut effectively
manages itself."
John,
Parkdale Secondary College - Australia |

"PaperCut is a wonderfully useful piece
of software! It has drastically cut the
amount of paper in the recycle bin. Students
are much more responsible about their printing.
PaperCut forces them to be more conservative
about the use of resources. Considerably
more thought now goes into the decision
to click the printer icon."
George,
Claggett Creek Middle School - USA

"We initally evaluated a range of products.
PaperCut did everything we needed at the
most competitive price. Three years on there's
no looking back. All upgrades have been
implemented without any problems. The word
"PaperCut" is now part of the College vocabulary
and students now have access to printers
24 hours a day, all thanks to PaperCut."
Jonathan Palmer,

"PaperCut is a fantastic piece of software.
Setup is very easy, and it works really
well, with tons of useful features, I love
that it integrates with Active Directory.
The technical support is top notch, response
time was very fast and they worked with
me to solve my issue. I would recommend
this product and this company to anyone."
Chris, Iowa

"I've used PaperCut at several of
my primary schools over the last few years.
It has performed extremely well, doing
its job as promised.
"At Somerville Rise Primary School, Teachers
and their grade are allocated a certain
amount for the year ($20 for grade, $80
for the teacher). If the grade runs out
early, the Teacher can elect to transfer
some of their money to their grade so
they can keep printing. This works, as
it encourages the teacher to teach their
class to be careful about printing.
"From low-end to high-end servers, on
any flavour of Windows, PaperCut just
runs - no interruptions, no memory hogging,
and no crashing.. PaperCut Quota is well
designed, and well written software.
"Great support from the developers, e-mails
promptly answered, and always able to
offer assistance on the rare occasion
that I actually need it! Keep up the good
work!"
Rohan Beckett - Somerville

"This is a great program, simple to use
and robust. I have recommended it to a number
of other schools, both public and private."

"Our College has been using PaperCut since
mid September, last year. We've found it
to be an excellent replacement for another
trouble prone print charging product. PaperCut
is clean, efficient and very easy to use
and install. PaperCut doesn't suffer from
memory-leaks and random crashes like our
previous system." Robbo,
Hobart College - Australia |

"I was looking for a while for the product
that will cut the printing cost and at the
same time will fit in a sub $1000 range.
Here it is! PaperCut does the great job,
easy installation and minimum of configurations
makes it even more attractive. Would definitely
recommended."
Michael,

"This is an outstanding product which
I have recommended to other colleagues in
educational computing. Congratulations on
your achievement - it's saving us a lot

"PaperCut has proved invaluable to the
school. It is very easy to use and has cut
down our use of paper dramatically. Its
many options and friendly interface makes
it a joy to work with. I would recommend
it any school." Christopher,
Colchester Royal Grammar School - UK |

"We have been very happy with the software
- works beautifully and has some great features
for tracking printing of students. Our computer
tech and I are both very pleased with its
performance" Michael,

"Our college has tried other packages
to handle excessive waste printing by students
and while they worked the interface was
clumsy and difficult or just too costly,
we discovered Papercut in 2000 and found
it to be the easiest and most effective
product to handle this for us. The interface
is very intuitive and the ability to remote
update accounts for printing credits allows
us to basically set and forget.
"Our college effectively halved the cost
of printing in the first year. Now students
are responsible for their printing and
Internet usage.
"On the occasional times I have contacted
support for assistance or for suggestions
I have found them to be relatively quick
with a response and the suggestions actually
actioned where possible.
"I cannot recommend this product more
highly. Thanks guy's for a great product.

"The PE Technikon is a Technical University
and the George Campus is a satellite campus
located 330 kilometres away from the Main
Campus. We have approximately 1000 students.
The situation in 2002 was that students
made use of 4 after-hours computer labs
and needed to print. The Student Council
paid for the ink and the students provided
their own paper.
This caused two major problems. The Student
Council had a limited budget and because
there was no control of the ink usage,
some students received maximum benefits
while others constantly found the printers
to be out of ink. Also, because students
provided their own paper, we found that
students used all sorts of paper in the
printer, believe it or not wrapping paper
has been found jammed in the printers.
The printers were constantly having to
be serviced due to paper jams and other
abuse.
I conducted a search on the Internet
and came across PaperCut. With some creative
accounting and the assistance of PaperCut
management, I was able to purchase the
Papercut quota system. I tested the system
until December 2002 and then implemented
Papercut on our Windows network. The Main
Server is located at our Saasveld site
with a secondary server installed at our
second site 15 kilometres away.
The system has now been running for six
months and what a difference! Total costs
so far are only 30% of what it was last
year for paper and ink. Not one of the
student printers has had to be serviced
this year. I have seen that the students
are becoming more responsible and economical
in their printer use.
I would definitely recommend the PaperCut
Quota system to any school or University.
It is easy to use AND manage. Thanks to
Papercut Biz for a great product. "

"I am very impressed with the attitude
of the PaperCut personnel. I especially
appreciate the dedicated customer service
we receive. With PaperCut, customers are
not treated like a number. Open dialog with
the engineers is actually encouraged. They
are always open to suggestions and give
every one careful consideration. I wish
all companies treated their customers like
PaperCut Software." Thomas,
Manteno CUSD #5 - USA |

"Just a quick comment to congratulate
you on the new PaperCut version 5.1. It
seems to be a big improvement on the version
4. I was particularly impressed by the clarity
of the user documentation. It was very easy
to follow and the program installed without
a hitch!" Nick, Schools
