Key Features

Xerox is partnering with Microsoft to host print infrastructure in the cloud, eliminating the need for on-site print servers and installing printer drivers on devices.

Ask IT professionals what are their biggest pain points, and the story is always the same: time-consuming, painful work that distracts from the high-value, strategic projects on their plates.

Budgets are tight, resources are scarce, and protecting data when you don’t have the dedicated cybersecurity specialists you need is tough.

But security and data breaches can compromise both your current financial situation and endanger its future.
