Oxfordshire County Council

Oxford County Council is responsible for running a wide range of community services. There are some 8,000 Council network users and an installed base of 7,000 PCs and laptops. The Council needed a solution that would provide public access to systems and applications in the libraries in a controlled manner while also providing a secure desktop environment that is easy to use and manage.

CDG, a distribution partner of RES Software, provided support to Oxfordshire technical staff to conduct a proof-of-concept to evaluate RES Workspace Manager and RES Automation Manger within their environment. The Oxfordshire pilot quickly demonstrated that the RES Software solutions met key requirements. Automation Manager is now being used as the standard mechanism for software deployment and is proving very effective in Oxfordshire. A positive start has also been made on the implementation of Workspace Manager across the Council. RES Software continues to help Oxfordshire County Council manage their users centrally and provide controlled public access for library users.
