What do you like best about LRS Output Management?

The LRS system allows excellent printing control and troubleshooting.

Their SAP printing integration solution is robust and has multiple options to fix problems.

In fact, one of the main factors in choosing LRS is printing from SAP.

Their Support team is really good, knowledgeable, and ready to help. Always use LRS team for a complicated implementation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I will not call dislike, I will call it lack of features or complication in those features which could be better or simpler to use.

Secure printing is complicated to set up on printers.

I'm missing an option to generate a report or list of printers. To get it it is required to purchase a separate module.

I'm also missing an option to help identify printers that are not in use to help maintain a healthy environment, helping delete those unused printers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about LRS Output Management?

Secure Print(MFP Secure) is a good product. LRS/DIS was a good AD authentication integration piece. User self service is nice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LRS Output Management?

Gateway is difficult to set up and does not query Active Directory like LRS/DIS does so either the user needs to manually enroll their card or the admin must run a manual import an a regular basis. They do not send email updates for issues or problems. Support documentation is limited and self help is non-existant. All other companies we deal with there is a lot of peer documentation but that is not the case with LRS. The support personell are nice but have a dificult time helping with issues as the fixes are not in their public available documentation and they must ask for internal documentation.

I get the feeling this is so you must purchase their professional services to impliment updates. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about LRS Output Management?

LRS allows multiple SAP systems to connect to and share thousands of printers. The software has filters that can be customized to do various things like tray selection or bin selection. In order to insure consistency and to remove the requirement for Bardimms, you can use Global Fonts. Printers can be set up with IP Addresses or Host Names. If a printer is down you can divert the output to another printer. You can catagogize the printers to lets say be grouped by geographic location or by application. Queues can be used to store documents for a configurable length of time. This helps in the event important documents are stuck in a broken printers queue so you can send the output to another printer. The support from LRS is impecable. They always get back to you and help you to resolve any issues and instruct you how to read the logs so you can determine problems yourself. Upgrades are easy as you just have to extract new binaries after you save the original binaries. Since the configuration of each printer is stored in a file you can replicate and entire system quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LRS Output Management?

I have been using LRS for a number of years and honestly I have not come across anything I dislike. If you dislike something or wish the software could do something else just ask the technical team and they may have a solution that you are not aware of cause the system is highly configurable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is LRS Output Management solving and how is that benefiting you?

Since the system is highly configurable you can set it up to solve most problems and if you are not sure how to solve a problem check with technical support because they most likely have a solution and will share their knowledge with you. I have mentioned many of the features the I found benefit me and my organization above. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about LRS Output Management?

The LRS Output Management System excels in efficiency and reliability. It processes tasks swiftly, ensuring that our outputs is managed without delays. The collaboration with the LRS team has been outstanding; they are highly accessible and responsive. Whenever we have questions, they provide comprehensive and timely answers. Solutions are quickly implemented. This level of support significantly enhances our confidence in the system and LRS. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LRS Output Management?

The only area that could benefit from improvement is the documentation, particularly in the EOS Replicate section. However, even in this regard, the LRS team has been exceptional in providing swift and comprehensive responses to our questions, ensuring that any gaps in the documentation do not hinder our operations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is LRS Output Management solving and how is that benefiting you?

LRS Output Management has significantly streamlined our printing processes by efficiently managing all print jobs from SAP. Before implementing LRS, we faced challenges with our previous application, particularly in handling complex print environments and maintaining printer configurations. LRS Output Management replaced this legacy system, providing a more reliable and automated solution that ensures all printer definitions are consistently updated within SAP. This transition has led to improved operational efficiency, reduced manual intervention, and minimized printing errors, ultimately saving us time and resources.

What do you like best about LRS Output Management?

LRS has allowed us to manage our previously unmanageable high volume of EMR print output to a vastly diverse catalog of physical target devices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LRS Output Management?

the initial setup is very complex and detailed, but once that base configuration is established it scales and grows very dynamically. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is LRS Output Management solving and how is that benefiting you?

we had a steep spike in organization growth and the alternative print management method of using load distributed print server pool quickly became unmanageable due to paper source configurations requiring manual per-queue build configuration on each server and spooler in our environment. LRS allows us to set the paper source in code, once, in the application and build one instance of the printer, which is then replicated to the rest of the pool servers via AlertX. this simple facet was a total game changer for us. Add to that the elimination of the need for drivers and we have efficiency with stability. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about LRS Output Management?

We started out using Microsoft Print servers before switching to LRS. We have had far less outages since making the switch. The support staff has also been very helpful in diagnosing issues that have been found. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LRS Output Management?

There are only a couple of things I would like to see changed/updated about LRS.

1. Updates are a bit of a pain. I am never sure if there is a newer version and when there is a newer version the upgrade process can be complicated. I wish that I could download the update and when I run it, it looks and sees what has updates and does that instead of having to pick and choose what needs updated.

2. The reports could use a lot of updating for me. I think there should be a way to sort and export the printers, but that is not possible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is LRS Output Management solving and how is that benefiting you?

The number of outages we were having with Microsoft Print Servers. We almost never have outages now and when we do, it has been anti-virus causing slow downs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

LRS Output Management gives many different ways of sending documents to many different receivers.

What do you like best about LRS Output Management?

The EOM prodcut is suite is highly configurable and provides integration for any source. There are several ancillary applications that offer solutions or features for many desireable services, like secure printing, self service administration, etc. Their product suite makes a "best of suite" approach to EOM easy to support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LRS Output Management?

Documentation for services is starting to become an issue. Products are released ahead of guides illustrating how set up certain application components. There are also confguration points in multiple applications that don't reside in the main interface, and are only set in text configuration files buried in application file systems. This means a consumer is either "all in" in discovering and learning the nuances of LRS products, or relying heavily on proffessional services to stand up the environment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is LRS Output Management solving and how is that benefiting you?

LRS EOM allows us to manage signifficant print volume from all sources in our enterprise. We also use secure print and integration apps for our core business applications and their requirements. We're able to manage a very large environment with minimal staff. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
