Nuance Named Global Device and Print Management Leader

IDC, a leading IT market research and advisory firm, has published a study entitled “Worldwide and U.S. Device and Print Management Market Shares, 2015: Year of the Evolving, Fragmented Market.” For the second year in a row, it has identified Nuance Communications as the market share leader among global device and print management vendors.

Commenting on the study’s findings, Holly Muscolino, research vice president of document solutions at IDC and co-author of the report, added: “Nuance continues to lead the print and document management software vendor market with its Equitrac, SafeCom, and Output Manager solutions. Though the printing equipment manufacturers that Nuance partners with frequently have their own ‘homegrown’ solutions, Nuance products are often the product of choice for larger enterprises with extensive fleets of multi-brand devices.”

While well-known for its speech solutions, Nuance’s Document Imaging solutions help professionals and organisations to gain control of their entire print environment by reducing costs and bolstering security. To make printing more efficient and reduce the burden on IT, Nuance software focuses on four key areas: security and authentication, hardware fleet optimisation, consumables cost reduction and network infrastructure. The company claims that its expansive portfolio enables strict compliance with information security policies and regulations while enabling organisations to streamline and eliminate gaps across the full spectrum of workflows spanning the lifecycle of their documents from origin to archiving. It also states that its Document Imaging solutions deliver an experience that is consistent, familiar and intuitive for more efficient, natural, and intelligent interactions with technologies used to create, capture, and process documents.

Speaking about the benefits of its solutions, Michael Rich, executive vice president and general manager at Nuance Document Imaging stated: “Security remains the top priority for IT departments with 70 percent of companies having experienced a data breach through printing.” He added: “With Equistar, Output Manager and SafeCom, Nuance ensures that customers leave no document unsecured, no penny unturned, and no worker unconnected.”
