89 IGEL Testimonials

"The day I set up our CEO’s home office with an IGEL UD7 supporting three monitors, Microsoft WVD, and a Cisco phone, it was amazing. He was so excited to see what we were able to accomplish, and now he has a whole new appreciation for IT.”

“We ran a development of the web application, which took longer than we thought. But for the actual roll-out of IGEL the switch was made at 66 places. At the same time we changed screens/ monitors at most of the places. We have about 40 local IT-supports, which are run from our office, who were out and did the change, and that took about 2 months, and for the most part the change went very quickly and easily. It went smoothly. For all the places we needed to update the firmware on all the thin clients when they were rolled out, and that also went very well.”

"What sold us on IGEL was the Management Console – hands down IGEL is better than any of its competitors at centrally managing endpoints residing within cloud and virtualized computing environments.”

“ The IGEL community has been a bonus, they are really doing a great job with this program. I give it top marks for the tips and scripts, and it offers a great forum for sharing/exchanging ideas and also helping each other troubleshoot."

“Looking for endpoints that were easier to manage and update from central location."

"The IGEL solution not only met the requirements of Smallingerland in terms of hardware specifi cations, but with its Universal Management Suite (UMS) it also off ered the best management tool by far.”

"It didn’t take us long to realize that the IGEL UD Pocket was exactly what we had been looking for to provide our CAD students with secure access to their graphics-intensive design applications.”

"Our future plans include expanding the deployment into the front office, starting with our secretaries, where we hope to experience additional CAPEX savings by extending the life of their desktop computers.”

"Students were the catalyst for change. Moving to VDI was a big change with many moving pieces. As part of this we needed a thin client platform that ‘just works’ which IGEL delivers.”

"What really made the IGEL platform stand out for us was the faster boot-up times, performance and flexibility, and the ease of management. I still can’t figure out why some of the competing thin clients are popular as none of them come close to IGEL in terms of their management capabilities.”

"The ROI with IGEL is tremendous. We don’t spend a lot of time supporting our endpoints. We ship out the IGEL device, the end-user plugs it in, logs into their desktop and begins working right away. It’s just that easy.”

“The bank had been considering moving to centralized management of its Windows desktop environment for some time and the need to upgrade to Windows 7, because Windows XP was no longer going to be supported, was the perfect opportunity.”

“We have been working with thin clients for almost 15 years. When we switched to the cloud, we used thin clients by Samsung that ran Windows XP and Citrix. However, our new cloud environment did not provide any support for Citrix. This resulted in audio and video issues on the clients.”

"The bottom line is we delivered a two-year project in weeks. That’s because of IGEL OS, the ease of management of the whole environment, plus the hard work of our IT department and logistics teams. People have been able to work pretty much as normal off ering the kind of customer service that our clients expect. It’s been fabulous.”

“When we started looking at how to deliver WFH, we considered purchasing more laptops. The business had about 1,200 but we struggled to buy more – to cater for 4,500 employees – given the increase demand for laptops from organisations globally. And as many staff didn’t have appropriate endpoints at home, this drove us to look at how we could repurpose our existing estate of PCs which were now sitting idle in the office.”
