Xero: Reinventing the device loaner experience with Grab and Go with Chrome Enterprise
Overview
Xero, the global small business platform, was founded to change the game for small business, making accounting easier and relationships between small businesses and their accountant or bookkeeper more seamless. The company is also working to remake the experience of being a mobile agile worker—in part by ensuring employees have ready access to work devices if they forget a computer at home or need a replacement. Xero chose Grab and Go with Chrome Enterprise to make its device loaner program fast and easy.

Remaking loaner device checkout and management with Grab and Go
With help from partner Dialog, Xero installed Grab and Go racks by Powergistics, filled with ASUS Chromebook Flip devices, at offices in New Zealand, Australia, the United Kingdom, the United States and Canada. Since Xero already runs on Google Workspace, workers who borrow Chromebooks from the Grab and Go racks can log in and get straight to work. After IT teams enroll Chromebooks using Chrome Enterprise Upgrade, they can manage devices through the Grab and Go app.
Grab and Go fits in perfectly with the Xero approach: finding smart, easy solutions to common problems.
