The challenge
Nacka gymnasium was looking for a comprehensive and long-term solution that supported the school’s increasing demands for cost efficiency and the continued digital transformation of school operations to modern tools for teaching & pedagogy, system administration, IT security and support.
Solution
With the school’s experience of using Google Workspace for Education in a PC and Mac environment, it was natural to make the full move to a new IT environment based on Chromebooks, the Chrome OS operating system and Google Workspace for Education. The majority of the school’s 2200 students started using Chromebooks. A few PCs and Macs are used for CAD applications, heavy multimedia and music production.
The result
The new IT environment met expectations and has contributed to greater availability, flexibility, better security and more efficient administration, as well as lower IT costs, including total cost of ownership (TCO):
- 75% lower TCO over a 3-year period
- 72% less time for set-up
- 54% less time for support
