ChromeOS has established itself as an efficient, scalable operating system. It was launched in 2011 as a lightweight operating system for Google hardware and has since evolved into a versatile platform. The ChromeOS Flex variant for other manufacturers is specifically designed for older PCs and x86-based devices. It offers a simple way to revitalize these devices and extend their lifespan.
Easy management and scalability
For businesses and educational institutions, ChromeOS offers a user-friendly IT infrastructure that is easy to manage even without extensive IT resources or in-depth IT knowledge.
Paid version offers enterprise-level device management
ChromeOS’s central device management offers scalable, centralized, and automated device management for less than two euros per device per month: features such as remote access, security policies, reports, statistics, automatic reporting, PC preparation, system logs, and operating data—a total of over 300 features.
Stability and performance with low energy consumption
A key advantage of ChromeOS is its high stability and performance. The operating system ensures smooth operation of video content and applications while consuming little power. These characteristics are particularly important in areas such as interactive digital signage, kiosk systems, and displays for DooH (digital out of home).
Google itself cites potential savings of up to 19 percent compared to Windows, and our tests confirm this: on average, ChromeOS consumes about 20 percent less power than Windows – and up to 30 percent less at peak times. The lean architecture of ChromeOS ensures efficient use of hardware and extends the life of devices.
Security and data protection
ChromeOS is exceptionally secure. Automatic updates and the tight integration of security features protect against threats such as ransomware and viruses. Google ensures that all data is stored in European data centers, which is particularly important for companies and educational institutions in Europe.
