How can webPDF reduce admin costs?

Business processes working together

As a PDF solution for companies, webPDF is a strong fit. But what are the concrete benefits, and how can it actually reduce administration costs?

The main reason is centralized and simple administration:

  1. You only maintain and update a single software package on the server. All clients access PDF functionality through a standard browser, so no local installation is required. Updates can be rolled out quickly and centrally.
  2. All webPDF features can be configured centrally on the server or in the administration section.
  3. Multi-platform support: webPDF can run on platforms already used in your company. Installation is fast via automated setup for Windows or Linux (GUI and console), or via a preconfigured VMware machine.
  4. The scalable server application allows you to align capacity with user demand. You can add resources as needed and centrally define how many instances each webservice should provide.
  5. Central monitoring is available, allowing you to check availability of PDF functionality quickly and conveniently.
  6. webPDF can run on 64-bit platforms, helping you handle growing request volumes reliably.

These advantages demonstrably reduce costs. webPDF is easy to use, requires little training effort, and still offers broad options for developers. Another major cost-saving factor is the webPDF portal.

The webPDF portal: create and process PDF documents in the browser​

With the webPDF portal, users can create and process PDF documents directly in their own browser, for example by signing or archiving existing PDFs. Learn more about these features. Since the portal can be accessed via the internet from almost anywhere, it supports mobile and always-available usage scenarios.

Because no local installation is needed, there are no additional local rollout costs. The portal further reduces spending because administrators manage one central server installation instead of maintaining local installations and updates.
