Reduce Energy Costs

According to the 2009 PC Energy Report*, if the world's 1 billion PCs were powered down for just one night, it would save enough energy to light the Empire State Building — inside and out — for over 30 years.

In the US, about half of the 108 million office PCs are not properly shut down, squandering $2.8 billion a year to power unused machines, emitting about 20 million tons of carbon dioxide – roughly the equivalent of 4 million cars.

Simply shutting down PCs at night can save a company with 10,000 PCs over $260,000 a year and 1,871 tons of carbon dioxide emissions*.

Persystent Software customers are saving thousands of dollars per year and addressing environmental concerns by reducing their weekday, weeknight and holiday PC power consumption.

Using the Persystent web-based management console, IT can easily enforce a green PC power management policy. Utilizing the Wake-on-LAN feature built into PCs, IT can choose to restart those same computers the next day to ensure users are compliant and ready for work each morning. Also from the management console, IT can schedule tasks in off-hours to patch PCs with software updates.

Persystent PC power management offers many benefits:

• Significant energy savings
• Improved energy efficiency
• Operational waste reduction (e.g. cooling requirements)
• Conservation of carbon footprint
• Prolonged battery life for portable and embedded systems
• Reduction in noise levels
