Many IT service providers are already offering their customers IGEL thin, zero and software thin clients as part of complete packages for a fixed monthly price – including hardware leasing and complete remote management. Advanced IGEL Partners (AIPs) and other resellers also take advantage of IGEL’s standardised remote management. The IGEL Universal Management Suite (UMS), which comes supplied with all IGEL solutions, allows all thin and zero clients to be pre-configured and rolled out quickly, remote administered seamlessly via the network, updated and managed centrally. This enables service providers to put together packages tailored to their customers’ needs and to offer them on attractive terms.
