Better employee experiences start with ChromeOS
Put employees first with an OS that offers a modern user experience, fast boot up times, reduced downtime and seamless onboarding experiences.
- Reduce employee interruptions and downtime with updates that install in the background. With ChromeOS, updates are invisible to employees, reducing downtime.
- ChromeOS provides end users with modern experiences that allow them to be productive, anywhere.
- ChromeOS gives your employees access to versatile devices that boot up in under six seconds, have secure, cloud-based backup systems and offer more than eight hours of battery life, so that they can work worry-free, from any location.
Simple and safe access to your familiar OS and browser apps, from anywhere
VDI on ChromeOS offers a seamless, cloud-based experience that ensures that your employees can easily access applications across all environments, from web-based SaaS apps to legacy apps and desktops.
- Access legacy Windows apps through virtualisation solutions including Citrix Workspace, VMware Horizon and Nutanix Frame.
- Leverage progressive web apps, Android apps, Chrome extensions and more on ChromeOS devices.
Your virtualisation solution is only as secure as your endpoints
Secure-by-design, ChromeOS delivers intelligent, built-in protections at every level of your stack – from the hardware to the OS and the browser.
- Keep devices secure with Google's built-in Titan C security chip and virus protection.
- Protect your fleet with encrypted storage, blocked executables and a read-only OS.
- Ensure that your firmware and OS have not been tampered with or corrupted with Verified Boot.
Deploy and manage devices from anywhere
ChromeOS deploys 63% faster than other operating systems and is 36% easier to manage.1
- Set over 600 policies remotely through the easy-to-use Google Admin console or UEM solutions, including: VMware Workspace ONE UEM, Samsung Knox Manage and BlackBerry UEM.
- Remotely disable lost or stolen devices.
- Roll out security and feature updates to devices gradually or set them to automatically install.
Choose the right VDI platform
Through our Chrome Enterprise Recommended program, we’ve tested and validated industry leading virtualization solutions like Cameyo, Citrix Workspace, Nutanix Frame, and VMware Horizon.
We chose Citrix Workspace to deliver the VDI infrastructure, ChromeOS to deliver our collaborative personal applications and Acer to deliver Acer Chromebooks for end-user devices. The combination of those three has been fantastic.
