PC Power Management

  • Reduce energy bills
  • Reduce Carbon Footprint
  • Non-disruptive to users
  • Supports patching processes
  • Typical return on investment in under 12 months

PowerStudio is an out-of-the-box, enterprise-level, PC Power Management software solution. By visualizing where energy is used and wasted, PowerStudio enables intelligent power-saving policies to be maintained, so you can maximize energy savings long-term with minimal management overhead.

Safe, practical power saving policies

Not all users work the same patterns. Identify where genuine energy wastage is occurring on PCs that aren’t required to be on. Create as many policy groups as needed and identify critical systems that should remain outside of power management.

Flexible options

Set ‘schemes’ within policy groups, to define what actions should be taken for groups of systems within their scenario. For example, dropping into hibernation mode after 60 minutes of no activity. No system should ever power down when in use, even if out of hours.

Easy policy assignment

Power-saving policies can be applied to machines in several ways, including by Active Directory and Organizational Units. Policies can be automatically applied as devices move from one group to another.

Balance support and security, long term

wake systems as well as power them down. Use the client to wake systems on a schedule to receive patches, or as needed to receive essential updates and then reboot automatically, ready for users.
