Offered as a stand-alone product or as part of the BigFix Systems Lifecycle Management suite, BigFix Power Management allows IT organizations to enforce conservation policies across the enterprise, while providing granularity that enables application of these policies to a single computer. For end users, BigFix Power Management maximizes power policy deployment while minimizing usage impact through an optional “opt-in” approach. Granular controls also allow end users to save their work before shutting the system down – ensuring no loss to productivity. (Link: BigFix)
