Industry Expert Examines Policy-Based and Dedicated PC Power Management Strategies

SAN RAMON, Calif., Nov. 4 /PRNewswire/ -- Faronics, an established leader in PC power management software solutions, announced today they will be co-hosting a free webinar on Wednesday, November 18th at 1:00PM EST/10:00AM PST to discuss PC power management capabilities within Group Policy, their strengths and limitations, and the benefits of a dedicated solution like Faronics Power Save. The webinar will feature guest speaker Jeremy Moskowitz, a Group Policy MVP from GPanswers.com.

This hour long webinar is designed for organizations that plan, or currently address PC power management through Group Policy. Moskowitz, a noted author, speaker, and expert on Group Policy, will further elaborate on available options and restrictions of built-in capabilities and how products like Faronics Power Save can maximize computer energy management.

Faronics has become a recognized industry leader in reducing enterprise IT energy waste. Faronics Power Save is non-disruptive, integrates seamlessly with existing IT maintenance routines, and provides organizations with centralized granular cross platform PC power management, real-time savings reports, and a rapid ROI.

"When people take my advanced Group Policy training, one of the topics that they love to explore is power management. They know they can have a 'quick win' with the bottom line with the tools in the box and some helpful guidance," said Jeremy Moskowitz, Group Policy MVP, GPanswers.com. "Indeed, power management using Group Policy is even better in Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 than ever before. However, even with Group Policy's increased reach, there are certainly situations where it might not be a perfect fit and 3rd party tools should be explored. A product like Faronics Power Save takes it to the next level and when IT organizations are mandated to take increased control of their power management challenges."

Faronics is committed to sustainability and helping organizations save money through education and their award-winning software solutions.
