Case Study: Salina Area Technical College improves loaned device recovery with Prey

Relieving the Stress of Getting Devices Back at the End of the Semester

Salina Area Technical College, a technical school in Kansas, faced a significant challenge in recovering loaned laptops from students at the end of each semester. Their IT Support Coordinator struggled with a low return rate and a lack of proper documentation for device tracking. They selected Prey's device tracking and security solution to help manage and secure their investment in new laptops.

By implementing Prey, the college utilized features like remote lock and GPS tracking. This solution had a direct and positive impact on their device recovery rate, transforming the process from a stressful ordeal into a manageable one. Prey's software allowed the IT coordinator to lock devices after a return deadline, which prompted students to promptly return them, ensuring the security and return of the majority of their assets.
