1 Million Documents Printed with PocketCampus at EPFL!

When we launched Mobile Printing at EPFL, late 2014, we did not expect the feature to be so popular. Since then, the PocketCampus solution has become the way to go for most EPFL students, used on a daily basis to print documents and primarily course material. Not surprisingly, printing using the app is way easier than printing from a traditional computer, as it requires zero configuration. Forget about setting up a printer, installing a driver, etc., printing is now mobile and one tap away.

On an average day, at EPFL, over 3,500 documents are printed using the PocketCampus app, however, today, we are excited to announce that we passed the bar of 1,000,000 documents printed on the move!

The PocketCampus solution is already deployed at various universities and companies, and we look forward to continuing our partnership with Canon in order to bring our technology to many more campuses to come.

The EPFL Open House App by PocketCampus

The École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne opened its doors to the public on November 5th and 6th 2016. This major event brought together 35'000 people from all generations on the campus, coming to discover what scientific research offers to the society.

PocketCampus was happy to build a dedicated app for the visitors, grouping into one place all the useful information to make the most out of the event. Features include the full, searchable program of the event, and a detailed, interactive map of the campus.

While being a native app on iOS and Android, the PocketCampus technology allowed the organizers to update the structure and the content of the app in real time during the event. This dynamism, as well as the ease-of-use, design, and reliability of the app, were greatly appreciated.
