"With a time saving from six hours to less than one hour, we will be able to expand our digital exam programme.”
"The IGEL devices are smaller, faster to deploy, use less energy and are easier to use than the old PCs.”
"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.”
"Many of our employees are on the road and work outside office hours. If they need access to data and applications for their work, we facilitate a laptop that they can take with them and use at home. This would mainly apply to fleet managers and planners in the different countries. These laptops are often on the road, with no given return date to the office, but the performance and safety of the systems remains the responsibility of the IT team. “Certainly, in relation to planning and fleet management, these laptops must function properly; they are core parts of our services.”
"IGEL’s superior management capabilities was a key selling point for us. Also, because the IGEL UDC software is designed to quickly and efficiently convert existing thin clients, desktops, and endpoints into IGEL Linux OS-powered thin clients, we knew that in selecting the IGEL solution, we would also realize a significant reduction in capital expenditures.”
“Traditional PCs run up high maintenance and operating costs even though they are underutilized in terms of capacity. We don‘t need huge processing power at each workstation. By virtualizing both the applications and the thin clients, we have improved efficiency and are making both direct and indirect savings.”
"After nearly a decade of use, the desktop hardware we were using was not only getting old, but it was no longer being supported. The main issue was that it uses Windows XP Embedded, so we needed to look at other devices.”
"If you put the time and eff ort to learn the UMS, it’s an excellent tool and makes life really easy. The beauty is you can make confi guration changes which can be rolled out to all devices in minutes not hours. For example, a fi rmware update can be remotely done or even set up to update automatically out of office hours when staff aren’t about."
"We like the IGEL UMS because it is easy to configure and makes the management of the IGEL thin clients virtually hands-free for our IT team. Previous to IGEL, some of our processes were manual, and often required an on-site technician to troubleshoot or configure desktop clients. Now we can do this from one central location, which saves time and reduces costs.”
“Endpoint dissimilarity was a constant struggle for us. The decision to move forward with IGEL was very simple.”
"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.”
"Even though we didn’t plan the rapid migration of our entire firm to remote offices, we were successful in getting everyone working from home almost immediately with IGEL and Microsoft. We could not have hoped for a better outcome.”
“With the help of Citrix and IGEL we were able not only to optimize our existing financial and personnel resources but also, at the same time, to improve performance and ensure reliable IT operation.”
"Having a non standard desktop environment was unsustainable for our small IT staff."
“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.”
