One of the most valuable aspects of technology is that it changes the way people work. While some people view smarter machines as a replacement for human labor, they can actually be a great tool to supplement the efforts of talented individuals.

Take teachers for example. The ability to convey knowledge according to a curriculum’s standards and in the way that people learn takes talent. And it also takes a lot of time – especially when talking about tedious tasks like grading tests.

The famous bubble test is still a mainstay at many schools, universities, and learning institutions. But the old method for grading it isn’t – thanks to Xerox ConnectKey appsand the handy features they offer, more people are turning to technology to do their grading.

At first glance, it might seem like copier dealers are in a tough industry. The development of paperless workflows, increasing digitalization, and overall reduction in printing should be bad news. The truth, however, is exactly the opposite.

Copier dealers are doing better than ever and it is due to exactly the same factors. The difference is that instead of trying to convince office managers to print more, dealers are helping them print less.

The Xerox ConnectKey platform is a versatile tool for integrating workflow processes with print fleet equipment. One of the key aspects that makes it so useful is its almost limitless compatibility with existing document infrastructure.

This allows offices and enterprise departments to implement automated workflows using Xerox ConnectKey apps. One of the most useful areas where businesses can implement this technology is in accounting, where paper waste is unfortunately common practice.

Non-profit organizations operate differently than commercial businesses and have very different infrastructure needs. Whereas commercial organizations will reliably follow strategies for increased revenues, non-profits think differently.

Non-profits’ motivations include expanding the services they offer, reducing the cost of delivering those services, and strengthening donor loyalty to ensure services continue. As a result, workflow solutions for non-profit organizations need to take a slightly different form than they would for their usual for-profit user base.

Additionally, non-profit organizations often have greater visibility and accountability needs than small businesses and some enterprises. Non-profits need to implement a robust system that accounts for every dollar spent so they can demonstrate the value of their actions to donors.

Whether it happens in 2019, 2020, or beyond, cloud-based printing will be eventually be the de facto printing solution for all serious businesses. Cloud-based technologies for printing have been in the news lately as companies like Xerox announce innovations such as better security, mobile printing, and intelligent capture. Is it all hype, or is it for real? 

For companies that use Salesforce or QuickBooks, Xerox has now developed technology to make integration with these services even easier. Xerox ConnectKey is an innovative way to connect multiple multifunction printers and copiers to a user-friendly, networked system that is easily accessible via a tablet-like interface.  

ConnectKey business solutions utilize a combination of hardware platforms and software to create an integrated business printing platform. The ConnectKey ecosystem is extremely powerful, and, to make it even better, it has built-in support for third-party apps.  

Employees can use this innovative printer system by Xerox to access documents on cloud-based services such as Microsoft Office, DropBox, Google Drive, and more. Now, companies that want to connect their accounting through QuickBooks or Salesforce CRM to corporate network printers can, thanks to Xerox and their ConnectKey software. 

What is the best time of year to buy office equipment? Often, the fourth quarter or end of the year is the best time to purchase new equipment. The end of the year is a time when departments try to get the most out of their budgets, save on taxes, and upgrade aging infrastructure. 

With Section 179 for 2018, businesses can get tax deductions for the purchasing of property, vehicles, and office equipment. These tax deductions for businesses can be a big boon for companies looking to upgrade systems, such as switching from a traditional networked printer environment to cloud-based printing.

Cybersecurity is a hot topic as more people become aware of the lengths hackers will go through to steal sensitive data. In fact, over 1 million new exploits are released each day.

More connected devices enter the workplace, and this increases the number of potential entry points for hackers. Printers and other connected devices are increasingly becoming hacker targets as they search for weak points within a network.

Until recently, not many companies thought about buying a secure network printer when making upgrades to their existing printing infrastructure. The threat was simply not on the radar. Luckily, Xerox has been working on security solutions for their products to ensure that businesses can feel confident when deploying a Xerox Workgroup Devices in their office.
