Chromebook Management

A feature of KACE Systems Management Appliance

The KACE Systems Management Appliance enables you to cost-effectively manage Chromebooks. The KACE SMA is the first comprehensive systems management product to inventory Chromebooks. This inventory information is integrated with the KACE SMA’s systems management workflows and processes, allowing you to use the KACE SMA to perform day-to-day management tasks, such as hardware inventory, reporting, and service desk, for Chrome devices.

How it works:

Chromebook inventory: The KACE SMA utilizes Google APIs to extract all available Chromebook data and incorporate it into KACE SMA’s asset inventory. This information is then integrated into all applicable KACE SMA processes and workflows, including asset management, reporting, service desk and the KACE Go Mobile Application. This integration provides you with a single-pane-of-glass view of your entire environment Chromebooks, Windows, Mac, Linux and UNIX systems, as well as mobile and connected non-computer devices — relieving you of the burden of using multiple solutions and consoles for your day-to-day work.
IT asset management: Chromebook inventory is part of the KACE SMA’s comprehensive IT asset management capabilities, which include unified discovery, inventory, asset management and reporting for virtually the entire enterprise infrastructure, regardless of OS platform.
Reporting: The KACE SMA utilizes Google APIs to extract all available Chromebook data and incorporate it into KACE SMA’s asset inventory. You can view and report Chromebook hardware and operating system inventory from both the inventory tab as well as through the alerts and reports section of the KACE SMA user interface.
