Houston Baptist University Selects Persystent Software to do the Heavy Lifting When it Comes to Maintaining Their Classroom and Lab PCs
Tampa, FL, June 25, 2010 – Persystent Software, developers of Persystent Suite, the world’s fastest recovery solution for restoring PC application and operating system files, today announced that Houston Baptist University -- a national metropolitan university that emphasizes the integration of faith and learning -- has joined the growing list of educational institutions utilizing Persystent as a solution to manage and protect their classroom and computer lab PCs.
Houston Baptist University (HBU) is dedicated to providing the highest quality academics with personal attention, maintaining just under a 13:1 ratio of students to faculty. That level of dedication runs deep throughout every department, so when the IT team was looking for a better solution to maintain access to PCs in technology enhanced classrooms and computer labs they turned to Persystent Software.
“Technology enhanced classrooms and computer labs are essential services for faculty and students yet they pose unique challenges for IT departments,” says Len Summa, Vice President of Sales, Persystent Software. “Degraded PC performance caused by configuration drift, unauthorized software apps, malware or viruses is much more significant in these environments.”
Persystent Suite is ideal for managing the multi-user environments of HBU; the automated repair feature ensures that PCs will always be ready for use. At each boot cycle Persystent automatically scans and compares the authorized configuration. Compliant files that are modified or deleted will be restored. Non-compliant files that have been added will be removed. Activity for each PC is logged for auditing and reporting and can be accessed from the convenience of a centralized web-based administration console.
Other educational customers using Persystent Suite include Crooms Academy of Information Technology, Gulf Coast Community College, Medina City Schools, Seminole Community College, University of Maryland and University of Massachusetts Boston.
