GET READY TO REVOLUTIONISE YOUR HARDWARE STRATEGY

Gain a deeper understanding of your current EUC hardware estate and use our valuable insight to plan your next-generation hardware strategy

  • View your overall Windows 11 compatibility status and learn what factors will prevent company-wide upgrade
  • Review the different versions of Windows client in your estate to understand your exposure to security risks
  • Explore how devices that are out of posture and may not receive security updates present a security and compliance risk
  • Understand what factors are preventing your organisation from adopting a single operating environment

 

MODERNISE YOUR APPLICATION PORTFOLIO

MODERNISE YOUR APPLICATION PORTFOLIO

Understanding how applications are in used in your estate is essential for delivering a consistent and secure service to your end users and maintaining business output. With Engage, you can:

  • Realise the potential scope of an application rationalisation project and it’s impact on your core application stack
  • Review the top applications that present a support and security challenge
  • Identify potential cost savings by releasing redundant liceses of expensive software like Microsoft Visio and Microsoft Project
  • Use application categories to identify non-business software like games
  • Devise a management strategy to reduce cost and risk associated with running multiple versions of different browsers

 

RETHINK YOUR USER MANAGEMENT PROCESSES

RETHINK YOUR USER MANAGEMENT PROCESSES

The management processes that you have in place to govern how users interact and move through your systems are intrinsically linked to productivity, licensing, and security. Engage can help to:

  • Identify the potential exposure to malicious activity and unauthorised access caused by stale accounts
  • Highlight areas in the organisation that could benefit from improving processes for leavers and longterm sick
  • Identify factors that could present a technical challenge during an AD migration
  • Expose issues with user inventory data that could present a challenge for transformation projects like a Windows 11 migration
  • Illustrate the prevalence of multi-device users within the estate

Getting Ready For Windows 11

One of the largest challenges when looking at planning a migration to Windows 11 is knowing where to start. Without that information, planning the steps that get you to your end goal is much more difficult.

Engage was created to help define that initial baseline and maybe highlight a few things about your estate that you hadn’t previously considered. Our report provides guidance to areas that you need to focus on and potential savings made by using toolsets to help remove some of the guess work and heavy lifting.

And the best part is that we do all this for you. No more spreadsheets to manage, data exports to create, or wondering if your dataset is current

Where the data comes from

We will use existing data sets within your organisation to generate your ENGAGE report. Utilising a collection agent on a single VM, we will collect Hardware, Application and User information from MECM / SCCM and Active Directory. Additional business information can be captured by leveraging other data sources such as HR (For departmental User info), or Networks (IP location mapping) to provide additional levels of context to your ENGAGE report. All user data will be obfuscated prior to leaving your environment.

How long will this take?

The Assessment Programme typically takes 10 working days to complete, including the baseline and analysis.

Your report

We will host a two hour Findings Workshop to present your Report. This provides the opportunity to delve into areas where the data is either a surprise or of interest, and to question what differences exist between your organisational baseline and peer organisations.
