A Win-Win Solution
School IT admins have traditionally offered Windows and Mac machines for teacher, staff, and advanced student use who needed computing power beyond the student Chromebook. However, it's difficult to manage all of these different devices -- plus student Chromebooks – simultaneously. IT admins are required to treat each device pool separately in terms of updates, security patches, and other device management.
By issuing a Chromebook Plus device instead of Windows or Mac machines, it is a win-win for both users and IT administrators. For users, they receive the same enterprise-grade processing performance and apps of the traditional Windows and Mac devices. IT administrators greatly reduce the device management burden because they can now manage all devices on the same platform with the elegant simplicity of the Google Admin console.
“I am so happy with these laptops; they're so solidly built. With ZTE, I was even able to distribute laptops without unboxing all of them!” says Brayden Matsko, IT Coordinator and ILTPP Ambassador, St. Michael The Archangel School. “And CTL is one of very few manufacturers that still uses barcodes instead of QR codes for serial numbers so I could easily scan the boxes. You guys truly think of everything. Sent from my brand new PX141GXT! Thanks!”
