How is MSS an ‘environment and pocket friendly’ solution?

The My sCool Server helps extend the lifespan of existing end client systems that are currently at all schools, majority of which satisfy the minimum client system specification requirement.

For just working with the MSS, there is no HDD required on the client systems as well. Hence eliminating a major failure prone component and saving precious electrical energy.
There is no need to install and maintain individual end-client systems, hence no need of annual maintenance contracts for each of them.
When new systems need to be added to increase capacity or replace ageing ones, small form factor, low power consuming and low heat generating devices meeting the minimum client specification can be purchased from the open market. This eliminates any vendor lock-in.
There is no license cost involved for number of users accessing the server for any period or for creating and distributing the USB bootable live media to any number of users. Hence it is ideally just a one-time investment.

The savings due to all the above result in an unparalleled low cost of ownership and a very quick return on investment. Hence these add up to make the MSS a pocket and environment friendly solution. Herein is also available a detailed comparison of most popular computer lab solutions wherein also the MSS wins comprehensively.
