ICT Engineer reports steep learning curve for FreeFlow compared to Fiery

Read at g2.com

What happened

Dhilshan S., an ICT Engineer at an Enterprise company (1000+ employees), reports that the Xerox FreeFlow Print Server has a steep learning curve and feels "old school" compared to Windows-based print servers like Fiery. This impacts the ability for new staff or casual users to perform basic tasks, making delegation difficult in busy environments like schools or offices.

    “The Problem: The learning curve isn't just a curve; it’s a cliff. For someone used to Windows-based print servers like Fiery, the navigation and logic of FreeFlow can feel counterintuitive and "old school." • The Impact: New staff or casual users may struggle to perform even basic tasks without significant training, making it harder to "delegate" print duties in a busy school or office environment.”
