Why use Powerdown and save energy?

Using Powerdown will save you money and help the environment. You could save up to £30 a year for every computer you own.

The problem

Many computer users leave their computers on permanently even though they only use them for a few hours each day. Powerdown minimises energy use and maximises cost savings by controlling the power state of individual computers. Idle computers are turned off or placed in a low power state and can be restarted automatically. This means that they are always ready when users want to work with them or when maintenance operations are required.

The solution

Using Powerdown energy saving software could

• reduce your IT energy costs by up to 40%
• reduce air conditioning requirements and costs
• lower carbon emissions and reduce your carbon footprint

Powerdown provides central control of energy use with a low total cost of ownership. It is suitable for all systems and is the ideal software for standalone computers, home networks and businesses of all sizes. Unlike competing solutions, Powerdown does not require that computers be connected to the network to operate. It is also the only software designed with electrical safety and the needs of laptop users in mind.

Powerdown can also encourage greater awareness of the environmental impact of computer usage. It has a key role to play in supporting corporate social responsibility strategies. It also has a positive environmental benefit and can eliminate up to 300kg of carbon emissions per PC per year.

It's great value too

A typical business with 50 computers will make sufficient energy savings to recover the cost of Powerdown within 5 to 10 weeks.
