Power Save energy saving software can analyzes CPU, disk, keyboard, mouse, and application activity before taking power management actions. It is also available for both Windows and Mac computers. With an average savings of US$25 per computer per year for every computer deployed, Power Save is the ultimate ‘green’ software solution for desktop and laptop computers..
Benefits of the software:
Non-Disruptive Energy Management
Power Save is designed to look at CPU and Disk Utilization thresholds that IT administrators can set so that Power Save will not shut down computers if background jobs such as Virtual Private Network, remote access, and remote backup are running. Power Save allows IT administrators to specify critical programs that are exempt from power down if they are running. CPU and Disk Utilization combines with this feature to ensure that systems are not powered down when students or teachers do not want them to.
Verifiable Savings
Power Save generates accurate reports detailed by computer and monitor that show the incremental savings gained through the use of Power Save in both kWH and $; this data can be exported to any other reporting tool for additional analysis.
