Faronics

Faronics’ solutions help organizations increase the productivity of existing IT investments and lower IT operating costs. In today’s economic climate of increasingly tightened budgets, continuous market pressure, and more work to do than time available, this is critical.

With a well-established record of helping organizations manage, simplify, and secure their IT infrastructure, Faronics makes it possible to do more with less by maximizing the value of existing technology.

Faronics Deep Freeze reduces IT helpdesk requests and costs by up to 75% by making computer configurations indestructible. It does this by ensuring each and every desktop, laptop, and server always remains in its perfect, original operating state that it was deployed in. Organizations enjoy greater computer reliability with lowered support costs, while IT personnel are freed from tedious helpdesk requests. In fact, organizations that deploy Deep Freeze experience a dramatic increase in the number of users and workstations supported by each IT technician. Deep Freeze’s disk protection still allows users to save their documents, spreadsheets, and other data to Thawed (unprotected) drives and partitions.

Faronics Anti-Executable ensures total endpoint productivity by only allowing approved applications to run on a computer. Any other programs—whether they are unwanted, unlicensed, or simply unnecessary—are blocked from ever executing. Anti-Executable’s ability to enforce total compliance provides absolute peace of mind. Organizations benefit from productive user sessions each and every time, while IT personnel are guaranteed that computers are compliant with acceptable use policies, regulatory requirements, and software deployment schedules.

Faronics Power Save dramatically reduces an organization’s operating costs by eliminating 70% of the current computer energy consumption. In fact, for every 1,000 computers Faronics Power Save is deployed on, organizations will save up to $50,000 per year.Faronics Power Save keeps computers running when users need them, powers them down when they are inactive, and can prove its rapid return-on-investment through energy savings reports. Power Save is also the only computer energy management solution that analyzes CPU, disk, keyboard, mouse, and application status before taking power management actions.

Faronics Insight helps turn standard computer labs into collaborative learning environments. Insight empowers instructors with the ability to educate, assist, monitor, and communicate with an entire class from one central computer. Instructors no longer need to need to deal with classroom distractions—such as games, instant messaging, and web surfing—when teaching a class. Insight makes it easy for instructors to monitor user computers; blank user screens; mute audio; remote into their computers; open, close, block applications and web activity on user workstations.

Standardized user environments are critical for organizations that want to reduce IT support costs and workload. Faronics WINselect provides a quick, flexible, and scalable way to configure the functionality and feature set of any Windows computer to conform to an organization’s requirements. WINselect also complements, manages, extends, and often replaces Group Policy Objects (GPO). It works alongside existing policies and delivers features and capabilities not offered by GPOs.

Faronics System Profiler provides a powerful inventory solution that identifies and stores detailed hardware and software data for every workstation across your deployment. Information is stored on the central Faronics Core Database, so System Profiler can quickly search your network for workstations that match specified criteria, as well as run detailed reports on either present or historical hardware/software configurations. Identify changes on one workstation over time, or compare any two workstations and identify differences. Simplify the management of your computing environments with System Profiler.

Faronics Anti-Virus provides proactive, memory-efficient, endpoint malware protection that keeps today’s complex threats at bay. Faronics Anti-Virus ensures an unobtrusive user experience –without compromising system performance– and best of all, it integrates seamlessly with Faronics Deep Freeze so definition updates will occur even while workstations are protected in a Frozen state.
