Cloud-Powered Endpoint Management for the Modern Enterprise
Managing endpoints efficiently and securely is a top priority for IT teams, especially with the rise of hybrid work and distributed teams. Traditional endpoint management solutions often require on-premises infrastructure, which can be costly and complex to maintain. Additionally, skilled IT resources are scarce and best assigned to strategic projects to improve user experience, differentiate the solution in the market, and generate business value. Software as a service (SaaS) reduces IT management overhead, improves security, and enables seamless access from anywhere.
The Power of IGEL UMSaaS for IGEL OS Endpoint Management
IGEL UMSaaS extends SaaS benefits specifically to IGEL OS-powered endpoints, providing a centralized, streamlined solution for managing thousands of devices with ease. IGEL Universal Management Suite as a Service (UMSaaS)—a cloud-hosted endpoint management solution delivers scalability, security, and simplicity. IT admins manage policies, updates, configurations, and performance monitoring from single console.
Strong Security & Compliance
Security is built into IGEL UMSaaS from the ground up:
- Zero Trust Ready: Strong authentication and role-based access controls ensure only authorized users can manage endpoints.
- Read-Only OS Security: IGEL OS endpoints are inherently secure, preventing malware installations and unauthorized modifications.
- Integration with SIEM Solutions: UMSaaS allows logs to be exported to Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) platforms for compliance monitoring.
- Automatic updates: Continuous updates ensure that security patches and new features are always applied without manual intervention.
Faster Deployment & Reduced IT Burden
With UMSaaS, IT teams can deploy IGEL OS endpoints in minutes rather than days. There’s no need for manual provisioning, and updates are applied automatically.
- Pre-configured Quick Start Templates enable fast deployment of IGEL OS devices with minimal setup time.
- Distributed Peer Updates app enables the IT admin to set up one endpoint device as the peer update server so that only this device will access the main server to download the updates. All other devices access the distributed peer update server from within the network and will no longer offload the outside network. Auto-scaling capabilities support organizations of any size without performance bottlenecks.
- More efficient use of IT resources – teams can focus on strategic initiatives rather than endpoint maintenance.
- Consistent user experience – standardized configurations ensure every user gets a seamless, secure experience.
- Lower IT support burden – fewer troubleshooting calls and faster resolution times.
Distributed, Hybrid, and Global Workforces
UMSaaS makes managing remote and hybrid workforces effortless by allowing IT administrators to deploy, monitor, and update devices anywhere in the world via a web browser —without requiring VPNs or on-premises infrastructure.
