Green, Ohio
Thin Clients Deliver Application Standardization, Taxpayer Savings The Green School District, in a suburb of Akron, Ohio, was much the same as other school districts across the country. Faced with countless unsupported applications, drastically different levels of computer expertise, and hundreds of aging PCs, the Green School District IT staff was constantly overextended and over budget.
With approximately 1,300 desktops, the IT staff turned to thin computing to standardize applications, fight malware and drastically cut costs. As a result, the school district is saving hundreds of thousands of taxpayer dollars while securely delivering cutting-edge multimedia educational applications to students across the district.

"About three years ago, we had so many aging PCs and support calls that our sixperson team was constantly behind. By switching to thin computing, we can cheaply replace outdated machines and support more clients with fewer people, resulting in significant taxpayer savings"
