As the landscape of technology continues to evolve, businesses are increasingly adopting innovative hardware to stay competitive, cut costs, and enhance efficiency. One of the latest trends is the growing use of Windows devices running on ARM chips. ARM-based devices offer an attractive combination of lower costs, energy efficiency, and improved portability, making them especially popular in sectors such as education.
At PaperCut, we recognize the growing demand for ARM-based devices and have taken steps to ensure that our solutions are compatible with this new wave of hardware. With the latest update, PaperCut Hive now fully supports Windows ARM devices, positioning your organization to stay ahead of the curve.
Why ARM Devices Are the Future
Traditionally, most computers used Intel processors, but we’ve seen a growing shift toward ARM-based processors. ARM technology allows manufacturers to create devices that consume less power while maintaining high performance, which translates to more portable and affordable options for businesses and institutions.
Microsoft has already expanded its Surface lineup to include ARM-powered models, and many other manufacturers are following suit. ARM-based devices are quickly becoming a cost-effective solution, especially in environments like schools and universities, where budget constraints and energy efficiency are paramount.
