Vendor Landscape: Multifunction Printers
Info-Tech Research Group, July 2011
Evaluating Multifunction Printers requires more than just a quick scan
Your Challenge
- Many IT leaders dislike managing their multifunction printer (MFP) fleet despite the significant impact its functionality has on the enterprise.
- However, enterprises who have integrated printing needs and functionality into the overall IT strategy are achieving higher levels of user satisfaction and cost effectiveness.
- In a highly commoditized market, enterprises find it difficult to differentiate vendor products and functionality in the mid-sized space. Without knowledge of the space, enterprises run the risk of choosing a less optimal vendor and solution for their environment and requirements.
Our Advice
Critical Insight
- Every MFP vendor has the basic table stakes; if table stakes are all your enterprise needs, differentiate on price and vendor stability.
- The market is highly commoditized, but certain vendors offer advanced features that must be evaluated to ensure that the solution is the right fit for the current and future critical environment requirements, or to avoid paying for unneeded features.
- Evaluating MFP vendors/OEMs can lead to enhanced functionality, smoother integration, improved user satisfaction, and cost effectiveness.
Impact and Result
- Identify and rank vendor offerings in the MFP market space.
- Understand the table stakes and nuanced differences in the product offerings between MFP vendors.
- Evaluate MFP vendors and products to determine the right fit for your enterprise needs.
