IGEL OS can be flexibly adapted to company-specific requirements, from functions and branding to screensavers with corporate messages. Changes can be made without replacing the backend infrastructure.

Financial Results

Minimal acquisition costs

By extending the service life of existing hardware, IGEL OS avoids costly new purchases and complex restructuring. This reduces IT costs and allows the infrastructure to be expanded flexibly and easily.

Challenges

Modular configuration

IGEL OS offers flexible customization: Unnecessary functions can be disabled at any time to save resources, keep endpoints lean, and reduce the attack surface.
