Case Study: Val Verde USD achieves 100% accurate device auditing and $40,000/year in licensing savings with Absolute Software

Absolute provides a powerful, costeffective solution for Val Verde USD

Val Verde Unified School District, serving over 20,000 K–12 students across 23 schools in Riverside County, struggled to manage thousands of staff and student devices with a basic, manual auditing program. That process often left retired or broken machines in the inventory, produced inflated device counts, drove excess license purchases, and made hardware refresh planning unreliable.

Val Verde deployed Absolute as a SaaS solution on 3,600 laptops and desktops, using Persistence® firmware to keep the agent self-healing and always connected. The district now achieves 100% accurate auditing, saves an estimated $40,000 per year in licensing, streamlined hardware purchases, and recovered the solution’s cost within a year while gaining reliable forecasting and better fleet control.
