Manage your Chromebooks with FileWave

FileWave’s multi-platform capability enables you to manage all devices — including Chromebooks — from one consolidated view.

Effortlessly track, secure, and optimize your Chrome OS devices alongside other platforms, all within a unified interface.

Why invest in ChromeOS management with FileWave? 

Chromebooks are simple, inexpensive, and capable. It is no surprise Chromebooks have been rapidly adopted by school districts.  But that simplicity does not necessarily extend to IT teams and Chromebooks have created unique challenges for IT departments.  

With one million Chromebook devices under management, FileWave mirrors Google Organizational Units to give a clear picture of your Chromebook environment, tracks lost devices, helps troubleshoot common issues, and gives IT techs the proper enablement they need to succeed—without needing to give your technicians access to the Google Admin Console.
