Fairfield, NJ – Keypoint Intelligence, the leading market research firm and independent evaluator of print and smart technology hardware, software, and services, announces that Canon uniFLOW Online has won a Buyers Lab (BLI) 2024 Pick Award for Outstanding Cloud Output Management Solution.

 

Now with its sixth consecutive win from Keypoint Intelligence, Canon uniFLOW Online continues to show why it still leads the pack with each update made available to customers. The solution regularly builds upon its features that enable users to handle scan, print, and copy activities on an easy-to-use interface—and in a secure manner. Being a cloud-based solution, print jobs can therefore be sent from anywhere, adding to its convenience factor. There is also no need to support Canon uniFLOW Online on local servers, which really benefits IT teams that are bogged down with other tasks.

 

“Almost four years after the COVID-19 pandemic altered the workplace in the blink of an eye, remote and hybrid work is still being adopted by many industries around the globe,” said Keith Haas, Solutions Analyst in Keypoint Intelligence’s Workplace Group, reflecting on why Canon uniFLOW Online remains a best-in-class cloud solution. “As we are all collectively adapting to new ways of working, each and every day seemingly, this system keeps improving on itself to help workers keep on top of document workflows and activities, not to mention management tasks handled by administrators.”

 

Analysts at Keypoint Intelligence were also impressed with Canon uniFLOW Online’s overall approach to security, as the solution is designed with organizations that have adopted zero trust environments in mind. Print job information is stored right in the cloud, making it simple to release print jobs on MEAP/AddOn devices right from mobile devices. In addition, flexible login options enable users to access Canon uniFLOW Online with various credentials, whether they have a PIN code or an ID card. The solution even generates hard-to-guess PIN and card registration codes and bans codes that could otherwise be easily guessed, ensuring that all information is safe.

 

“Our integrated portfolio of print and information management solutions plays a vital part in helping our customers work smarter and faster in today’s evolving workplace,” said Marc Bory, EMEA Vice President of Digital Printing & Solutions Marketing & Innovation at Canon Europe. “Since it arrived on the market eight years ago, Canon uniFLOW Online has become a key element of our offering—and through the scalability and flexibility of the cloud, it is enabling thousands of businesses to print, digitize and process documents wherever their employees may be working. We are delighted that it has been recognized with a Pick Award from Keypoint Intelligence for the sixth consecutive year as an Outstanding Cloud Output Management Solution.”
