Case Study: PaperCut achieves faster, easier partner portal editing with CloudCannon

PaperCut boosts editing speed 10x with CloudCannon

PaperCut, a print management software company, approached CloudCannon with a challenge to build their Partner Portal. They required a dynamic, full-stack application for their partners, but also needed their internal content team to have an easy, autonomous way to edit the front-end without dealing with source code, which was a major frustration with their old PHP system.

CloudCannon implemented a hybrid architecture using Next.js for a static front-end and a separate Node.js backend for dynamic functionality. This solution provided the performance of a static site with the power of a dynamic application. The result was a game-changer for PaperCut: content editors gained 100% autonomy with a visual editor, making edits over 10x faster. The portal successfully manages complex, role-based content for multiple teams and has received overwhelmingly positive feedback from both editors and partners.
