Persystent Software Continues to Earn High Marks in the Education Sector


Tampa, FL, February 18, 2010 –
Persystent Software, developers of Persystent Suite, the fastest PC recovery solution in the world, restoring application and operating system (O/S) files that are corrupted, changed or missing with just a simple reboot, today announced its continuing success in the education sector -- welcoming a record number of new customers, ranging from public schools and independent school districts, to public and private colleges and universities nationwide, including:

  • Crooms Academy of Information Technology
  • Gulf Coast Community College
  • Klein Independent School District
  • Seminole Community College
  • University of Maryland
  • Medina City Schools

According to the software provider, the all-in-one repair, imaging and compliance solution features found in Persystent Suite are particularly well suited to the education sector because they target the IT challenges inherent in school settings, including a traditionally low ratio of IT staff to PC end users and particularly high-traffic, multi-end-user computer lab environments.

Persystent points out that many of its education customers, including Medina City Schools, choose Persystent Suite because it allows IT to provision new machines in a fraction of the time compared with traditional PC re-imaging.

Medina City Schools, located in Medina, Ohio, which encompasses 11 citywide schools, recently opened two new computer labs. They plan to use Persystent Suite to provision new computers in record time, and rely on the core “self-healing” PC repair technology to maintain and ensure compliance for approximately 800 laptops and desktops in various locations, all from the convenience of a centralized web-based administration console.

“We’re very excited about the time-saving capabilities of Persystent Suite,” says Jack Howell, Network Ops Manager/Senior Systems Engineer for Medina City Schools. “In the past, we had to do a lot of traveling to service our computers. Now, we can configure automated PC repair, lockdown computer applications and easily deliver software updates from a web-based console.”

In addition to repair and compliance features, Persystent Suite also enables provisioning of new PCs and O/S migrations. In March, Persystent plans the release of Persystent Suite 4.5, with Windows 7 compatibility. This release will automate the migration of XP and Vista to the new O/S while offering the fastest “self-healing” PC repair capability once machines are upgraded. No other software offers both OS migration automation and automated PC repair capabilities in one tool.
