PC Power Management Software Features
Find your PCs, set the rules once, and let TaskForceCO2 switch off the waste. Every night, every weekend, every holiday.
From download to savings in four steps
There's a short set-up when you first install, then it's a case of finding your PCs and telling TaskForceCO2 what to do with them.
Install
Run through the quick set-up, then install the server service with a click.
Find your PCs
Bring them in from Active Directory, the network or an IP range.
Make a scheme
Choose when PCs shut down, sleep, hibernate and wake. As simple or detailed as you like.
Apply it
Deploy to a single PC or whole groups in one go, then watch the savings report.
