Ovidius University, a large-scale university in Romania, needed a modern print stack to support their IT team with a unified platform, built to combat complexity, while delivering high-quality education through digitalization.
Ovidius University of Constanța (UOC), a member of the ARTEMIS consortium, is one of the most important higher education institutions in the South-East region of Romania. Today, it's also one of the standout innovative voices in the national academic landscape.
The university comprises 16 faculties, 79 undergraduate study programs, 60 master's programs, and five doctoral schools with seven fields of study.
The institution’s growth (from a pedagogical institute into a creditable, large-scale university) had increased the complexity of its document management setup. To prepare for future expansion and adapt to digital-age learning, the institution launched a project to modernize how documents are managed, shared, and secured across its buildings.
The goal was simple: give IT a centralized, sustainable platform that removes complexity—so students and staff can focus on learning, not paperwork. The project set out to replace scattered, manual processes with an intelligent, unified solution that streamlines printing, scanning, and document storage.
