Case Study: a housing development corporation modernizes Windows 11 device management with Derive Technologies

A Modern Device Management Case Study

A housing development corporation faced the challenge of upgrading hundreds of devices from Windows 10 before its end of support. Their initial plan to use Microsoft Deployment Toolkit was not viable, as it does not officially support Windows 11. Derive Technologies was selected after it provided a candid assessment and a realistic path forward, differentiating itself from other vendors in the RFP process.

Derive Technologies implemented a phased solution, beginning with a supported Windows 11 imaging deployment. This was followed by a pilot for Microsoft Intune, which the client was already licensed for but not using. The solution provided the corporation with a scalable, modern device management platform for both on-premises and remote control, avoiding the financial risk of extended support agreements and establishing a foundation for future growth.
