Every tool a PC lab needs.
From the bell at 7 AM to the last customer at midnight, Desk keeps each PC in the state you want.
Lock, unlock and time every PC
The console shows each PC with its state, user and time left. Unlock for a set time, add minutes, or lock the whole room at once. A PC that goes offline is flagged right away.
- Locked PCs stay locked even if the network drops
- Time counts down on the PC and ends the session itself
- Lock all or unlock a group in one click
A waiting queue that runs itself
When every seat is taken, customers join the queue. The next free PC is offered to the next name, so nobody argues about who was first.
- See the wait time for everyone in line
- Reserve a PC for a person or a class for a set time
Blocked sites, with room for exceptions
Keep games, social media and anything else off the lab. Allow a site for one class without changing the rule for everyone else.
- One blocklist for the lab, edited from the browser
- Changes reach every PC in moments
See every screen. Broadcast yours.
Open a wall of live screen thumbnails to see who is stuck or off task. Teaching? Broadcast your screen to every PC, then hand control back.
- Off by default, switched on with a consent tick
- Users see a notice while their screen is viewed
- Every view is written to an audit log
Remote control from your seat
Open a secure remote session to close a stuck program, install an update or help a user, without walking across the room.
- Secure session through our remote service
- Who connected, to which PC and when is always logged
Time packs, wallets and receipts
Set rate plans, sell prepaid packs at the counter and let the PC count the time down. Close each shift with a cash report that matches the drawer.
- Per hour, per minute or block-based rates
- An append-only wallet history for every user
- Printable receipts and shift cash reports
