IGEL and Vasion: Secure Printing and Scanning for the Modern Enterprise

The Fontainebleau in Miami Beach will be the place to be later this month as IT professionals, industry experts, and End-User Computing (EUC) enthusiasts come together for IGEL Now & Next 2025, the premier event for EUC, endpoint security, and digital workspaces.

This four-day convergence of forward-thinking strategies, innovative solutions, and deep insights will showcase the future of digital workspaces, and we are thrilled to have Vasion as a Gold-level sponsor!

We sat down with Chee Tan, Vice President of Ecosystem, Alliances, and Corporate Development at Vasion, to learn more about the relationship between IGEL and Vasion and what attendees can expect to learn at IGEL Now & Next about how IGEL and Vasion are collaborating to secure printing and scanning for modern enterprises.

Tell us about your company and how you partner with IGEL. How long have you been an IGEL Ready partner?

Chee Tan: Vasion (formerly PrinterLogic) officially joined the IGEL Ready Program in October 2020. We are now entering the 5th year of our partnership.

What are some things your organization is doing together with IGEL to shape the future of EUC?

Chee Tan: Vasion offers secure, scalable print and output management solutions, helping EUC customers meet challenging and evolving security and scalability requirements.

Vasion’s integration with IGEL enables mutual customers–on any IGEL OS-powered endpoint–to eliminate print servers and ease print management in traditional, VDI, or DaaS environments. This includes helping customers migrate their legacy VDI infrastructure to IGEL and AVD solutions.

How has being a part of the IGEL Ready program improved your business or enhanced customer experience?

Chee Tan: By utilizing IGEL’s Unified Management System (UMS), administrators can easily configure and manage printers on multiple endpoints. The Vasion Print App for IGEL provides a streamlined and secure process for managing print jobs across different environments, significantly reducing the administrative burden and freeing up IT resources.

Vasion Print is a secure, cloud-based solution that fits into Zero Trust architecture. Both IGEL and Vasion Print adapt to your existing security protocols, ensuring your print infrastructure remains fully secure.

What are some of the key trends that are impacting your partners and customers in 2025, and how is your organization solving these?

Chee Tan: In 2025, existing security threats are accelerating as new cybersecurity attacks continue to rise. Zero Trust architecture keeps your data secure and only available to identified users. Vasion helps customers secure their printing and scanning infrastructure with end-to-end encryption, including mobile print, web print, and secure release printing.

Why is your organization a sponsor of Now & Next 2025?

Chee Tan: As a long-time IGEL Ready Partner, Vasion would like to showcase the newly launched Vasion Print solution for IGEL OS v12 in IGEL App Portal at the event.

With the release of Vasion Print for IGEL OS v12 solution, we would also like to demonstrate the IGEL-Vasion Print-Microsoft AVD print management SaaS solution to help mutual customers meet the most challenging security and scalability requirements.

Is this the first time you are sponsoring an IGEL event? If not, what keeps bringing your organization back to these events?

Chee Tan: We’ve sponsored over a dozen in-person and virtual events with IGEL since 2018. We see it as a valuable partnership to help people simplify print management.

What will you/your team present to attendees at Now & Next 2025?

Chee Tan: Topics we plan to cover during the technical bootcamp presentation and breakout session:

• Vasion Print Solution for IGEL OS v12
• Solving the Printing Problem in Microsoft AVD, Citrix, and VMware Horizon VDI Migrations
  • How to implement a secure printing solution for enterprise and large enterprise environment

  • How Vasion Print solves virtual desktop printing requirements today—without volume-based billing
  • What you need to do before, during, and after a migration to make sure printing doesn’t just work, but works well

What do you hope attendees learn from the content you share at Now & Next 2025?

Chee Tan: Print and output management can be simple with the right tools.

What do you want to take away from participating in Now & Next 2025?

Chee Tan:  We hope to achieve the following at Now & Next 2025:

• Launch the Vasion Print solution for IGEL OS v12
• Introduce the IGEL-Vasion Print-Microsoft AVD solution to Microsoft AVD customers to address customer pain points caused by using Universal Print, security standards, and scalability requirements.

What is one thing you plan to accomplish in the next three to six months?
