OS Cloud
The device arrives and is already yours
OS Cloud is our own software for imaging and deployment, developed in Switzerland and hosted in Switzerland. It puts your corporate image on every device and registers it in your Microsoft tenant. Your employees unpack, sign in and start working.
We install your image before delivery and register the devices in Intune via your Microsoft tenant. You receive devices that are ready for use and ready to ship to any site.
OS Cloud is deployed in your infrastructure. Your IT team images the devices itself, with the same image and the same process.
We build the image to your specifications or adopt an existing one.
The configuration for your Microsoft tenant is stored.
On your premises or at VarioTrade in Othmarsingen.
Every device is enrolled in the tenant and in Intune.
Only a checked device leaves the technical department.
Ready to ship to the sites you have specified.
The installation runs fully unattended, with no input on the device. A typical image comprises:
The hardware hash ID is generated automatically and transmitted to your Microsoft tenant, with group assignment if desired. This requires access authorisation to the tenant granted by you. Alternatively, we supply the hashes for you to register the devices yourself.
German, French, Italian and English. You specify the system language per device or per site when you order.
We check new Windows builds in our test lab before they go into production. The current and the previous version are available at any time; security-relevant updates are integrated.
| Method | How imaging starts | Requirement |
|---|---|---|
| USB stick | Bootable stick, created by VarioTrade | No infrastructure of your own |
| Network (F11/PXE) | Start via the company network | Windows Server with WDS and IP clearance on your side |
| HP Sure Start (beta) | Started by the end user | HP devices; the integration is at the beta stage |
Together with your IT team we clarify what belongs in the image, what the tenant connection looks like and which operating mode fits. OS Cloud is continuously developed further in line with customer requirements. Switchboard: 056 419 11 11.
