To get the most out of every workday, you need business-class PCs. The Intel vPro® platform is built for business with features for workforce productivity, endpoint security, mobile device management, and more.1
A high-performance business demands business-class PCs. When you have performance, security features, manageability, and stability, you can turn your PC fleet into a competitive advantage.
The Intel vPro® platform is built for business. It’s the no-compromise PC platform, designed to deliver the latest technologies in one integrated, validated solution.
With enterprise computers based on the Intel vPro® platform, employees gain the right tools for focused productivity and adaptable performance. IT gets hardware-based security features, robust manageability, and a stable platform to help protect and efficiently manage the environment. That means everyone enjoys a great user experience.
PC performance has a major impact on employee productivity. In fact, employees can lose up to one full workday each year waiting for their three-plus-year-old computer to boot up.2
Choosing a PC with a business CPU means getting fast, responsive performance for multitasking and data analysis, the latest connectivity standards, and a long battery life. All this keeps employees in the flow so they can be more productive.
While software-based security plays a key role in protecting your devices, it’s not enough to keep up with modern threats. Hackers are coming up with new ways to inject malware into the code beneath your operating system.
Security technologies built into your PC hardware provide an important layer of protection for your devices, applications, and data. Hardware-based security features can help minimize the risk of firmware attacks and support mobile security and identity management.
There are plenty of software tools that let you remotely manage and repair devices. But what happens when the operating system is down or when the PC is turned off?
Hardware-based remote management lets IT administrators access devices when they’re out of band. As long as a PC has access to a network connection and a power source, it can be managed.
When you buy business PCs, you’re making a decision that matters for years. A stable platform gives you reliability today with availability that allows you to scale for future growth. This stability means you can avoid frequent driver updates and incompatibilities, which can impact your ability to manage PC images. It also allows you to transition to new technology on your own terms.
Equip your business for success with sleek, light, stylish laptops and 2-in-1s packed with industry-leading power and performance.
Put the next-gen speed, responsiveness, and reliability your business needs on every desk.
A 2019 study by Forrester Consulting commissioned by Intel found considerable cost benefits to choosing the Intel vPro® platform. The platform delivers three-year, risk-adjusted benefits of USD 2.8 million vs. costs of USD 1.1 million, resulting in an ROI of 155 percent, and a payback of nine months (as estimated using a composite organization).3

“Employees lose a workday each year just waiting for their computer to boot up” is based on a 2018 web-based survey, commissioned by Intel, and conducted by J.Gold Associates, LLC., of 3,297 respondents from small business in 16 countries (Australia, Canada, China, France, Germany, India, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, Spain, Turkey, UAE, the UK, and the USA), to assess the challenges and costs associated with deploying older PCs. Assuming one start-up per day and using an average start-up time that was calculated by taking the midpoint of the time survey respondents estimated it takes to start up a PC that is more than four years old, employees were estimated to spend up to eight hours a year starting up a three-year-old PC (2.90 minutes start-up x 1 start-up per work day x5 days a week x 52 weeks a year/60 (to get hours) x utilization rate of .67 = 8.46 hours per year).
