Case Study: St Edmund Arrowsmith Catholic High School achieves 84% energy savings and seamless Citrix XenApp migration with 10ZiG Thin Clients

St Edmund Arrowsmith Catholic High School - Customer Case Study

St Edmund Arrowsmith Catholic High School, a 1,200‑pupil secondary in Greater Manchester, needed a fast, low‑cost desktop solution that matched PC performance for video and graphics, was easy to maintain, and could scale from Microsoft RDS to Citrix XenApp without frequent hardware replacement.

They deployed 10ZiG 5616v thin clients (initially for RDS and later migrated to Citrix XenApp) and now run 400 devices with no hardware changes during the upgrade. The rollout improved endpoint management, cut desktop power use from ~150W to 24W (an 84% reduction), proved highly reliable (just 3–4 faults in three years with quick replacements), and earned strong endorsement from the school’s ICT manager.
