But we all know that it is not our wallets that get large...I need to show
that equation to my management...my wallet is farm from large.

Large farms = large bills = large company = Record Sales for the 1st Quarter
2006 = large profits for Q Dividends = large wallet.

I guess, with a large farm, come large bills.

 

Right now, I have large headaches, as printer creation/support is getting to
be more than I can handle.

Yea, I would think so to, especially considering the discount I got for 5
servers, and that was direct from triCerat .And then you might be able to
get a few dollars more off direct from a reseller.

 

Even still, with 80 servers, any of these products are going to get pricey.

I'm sure you would get quite a price break off the MSRP if you buy 80
licenses. ;o)

I just purchased 5 licenses of ScrewDrivers.  I went with it over Thinprint
because I didn't need the extra support for non-Windows clients that
Thinprint offered.  I was also told Thinprint is more expensive, although I
didn't actually price it.  I seemed to find more people using ScrewDrivers
over anything else.

 

List price per server on ScrewDrivers is $1795, of which part of that price
includes the mandatory first year support at $299 per license.  There is
discounts off list price for quanitity purchases.

 

Simplfy Printing is available only as a component of Simplify Suite.
Simplify Printing is built off and uses ScrewDrivers, but it adds a
management console.  There is also an additional component that lets you
supported WinCE and Linux based thin clients, which are not supported by
ScrewDrivers.  As described to me, ScrewDrivers is for fat windows clients
(altough it does support XP embedded as well), where as Simplify Printing
has much more thin client support. Simplify Printing also has some server
based piece to help manage those CE/Linux based thin clients. 

 

Those are the major differences a described to me between ScrewDrivers and
Simplify Printing.

 

PS - Post iForum, you are supposed be able to purchase Simplify Suite
components individually, instead of having to get the entire suite.

I did not leave them out on purpose...simply went with the 2 I knew a little
about.  Now I see Tricerat bought out Doug B.'s Print Manager.

 

Thanks for the input, now how does that one compare to the others?

What is better, worse, same?  Why does Trcerat have both Screwdrivers, as
well as simplify printing?
