It is very important for us to ensure the University is running up-to-date computers. Having a managed desktop or laptop allows us to offer a number of benefits:

• Many applications are pre-installed on your computer ready to use straight away
• We can apply critical software updates and protect your information
• Your computer has power-management facilities, which will help to reduce how much energy your computer uses. This is a vital contribution to the University's strategic goal to reduce IT-related carbon emissions
• Having a standard system allows for our IT support analysts to be immediately familiar with your computer, which improves support time and quality.

• Maintenance windows for managed desktops
