The Intuitive BI Connector for PaperCut Hive allows you to connect your print data from PaperCut Hive to Intuitive’s pre-integrated BI solution with a complete set of standard print management dashboards.

You can be up and running within a matter of hours allowing you to:

• Harness the data stored in your instance of PaperCut Hive
• Present a visual and dynamic print data summary for all key stakeholders
