Whether you’re in the Dental, Medical, Commercial, or Industrial industry, there are always room for technological improvements within your company.
With the popularity of remote workforces at an all-time high and disparate teams worldwide, the way we consume technology, including print and imaging changes daily. Long gone are the days of hitting ‘ctrl Print’ to send a document to your dedicated desktop printer or to your network printer that the office shares. Today’s workforces create and share digital documents via email, social networks and cloud services at a rapid pace. This makes life much easier for many companies and also allows files to be transferred super quickly. In the olden days, remember having to ship documents via mail or ups? You would print the document, stuff it in an envelope, weigh it, add the correct postage and or label to the package and then wait for the post office or the UPS to pick it up. This not only is time consuming, but it could get “lost” and you are using a lot of paper and ink, which as we all know is not beneficial for the environment. Now all you have to do is upload and hit send, which is simple for the user, but also quick and these documents can reach multiple people within seconds.
These shifts in how we do business drive trends including major advancements in print management. In order to keep pace, enterprise organizations are implementing improved print strategies and print management resources faster than ever. In fact, aggregate enterprise spending on print hardware, software and services is forecasted to reach $160 billion by 2020.
