Extend the life of your devices and reduce CO2 emissions

IGEL

Sustainable End User Computing means repurposing, not replacing.

That shiny new laptop you’re using may have cost more than you thought.

On average, a laptop is responsible for around 380kg of CO2e. What most people don’t know is that up to 83% of those emissions are generated during the manufacturing process, not during use.

By using that laptop for twice as long and avoiding one refresh cycle, you can reduce your environmental impact by half.

The best way of using that device for longer? Take Windows off the endpoint and replace it with IGEL OS to connect to Windows seamlessly delivered by Citrix.

IGEL OS on endpoint devices saves energy and budget, and runs on any compatible x86-64 device, giving you the ability to extend the life of existing PC hardware investments.

IGEL endpoint security

Discover how you can crush your security nightmares with an OS that’s designed for life on the Edge

The three most-often cited areas of significant cybersecurity skills shortages include cloud computing security, security analysis and investigations, and application security.

Where people can work from anywhere, you need a zero trust approach when it comes to the endpoint. We know businesses are struggling with security skills and IGEL can help.

IGEL protects the network edge. Your users’ endpoint devices are critically important, and patching and securing endpoints that run Windows is not easy. Patching can be time-consuming and costly to both IT and user productivity.

With IGEL OS one IT expert can easily keep thousands of desktops secure, updated and available, letting you deploy staff and budget elsewhere.

Cloud workspace offerings like Amazon Web Services and Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD) are all about moving Windows from the user device and into the cloud. IGEL OS is hardware agnostic and thus makes it easy to convert any x86-64 device, regardless of vendor or form factor, into a highly secure, standardised endpoint. Most if not all of your existing endpoint devices are already “cloud ready”!
