• Remove the need to house Windows on your devices.
• Eliminate the need to pay for Windows anti-virus licenses, 3rd-party management licenses, or Windows updates when you switch to NoTouch Desktop.
• Keep your clients up to date with NoTouch Desktop’s easy and automated update features.
• Leverage existing devices without needing to make additional capital purchases of hardware.
• Benefit from the included endpoint management solution making desktop visits from support staff unnecessary.

What is NoTouch Desktop?

NoTouch Desktop is a hardware agnostic endpoint repurposing and administration solution that consists of:

• NoTouch OS, the minimal-footprint operating system that runs on both x86 / x64 and ARM based devices. It can run from USB sticks, network boot, CD-ROMs and your local hardware.
• NoTouch Center, the central, automated administration solution for configuring, monitoring, updating, and remotely controlling your endpoints. Run NoTouch Center on premises or with our fully managed, Cloud based service, NoTouch Cloud. Including Work From Home NAT’d devices using Cloud Xtension

Does NoTouch Need Windows to Run?

NoTouch does not need Windows in order to run. It is a complete appliance based on Linux and is intuitive enough to use that system administrators don’t need to have any OS or Linux skills to use it. Every aspect of the system can be centrally managed.

• Run NoTouch side-by-side/dual-boot with Windows (we call it Live Boot).
• Install NoTouch on a system’s hard drive or flash drive, effectively wiping Windows out.
• Run NoTouch inside a virtual machine in a Windows OS in order to provide a clear boundary between user-controlled Windows (BYOD – bring your own device situation) and company-controlled NoTouch.

What are the hardware requirements for NoTouch OS?

NoTouch OS runs on 99% of all x86 or x64 desktop hardware including Intel (desktop and Atom), AMD and VIA CPUs. NoTouch OS also works on ARM based devices, including the Raspberry Pi, and prevents hardware lockdown and keeps you free to incorporate the widest variety of devices.

How is NoTouch Desktop Installed and Deployed?

NoTouch can be booted in Live Mode (without touching the underlying OS) or installed on the device’s hard disk or flash drive. Live Mode boot options include booting from USB or CD-ROM or using PXE (Network) boot. The same options can also be used to install and deploy NoTouch Desktop. Most of our customers use USB boot for testing purposes and take advantage of the PXE boot server when rolling out NoTouch onto thousands of PCs. For enterprises that need to install at scale, we also offer a MSI installer package that can be rolled out without any third party tools or user interaction.

NoTouch Desktop Benefits:

• Convert any PCs, Laptop, Thin Client or Raspberry Pi device into a Thin Endpoint – NoTouch OS is 100% hardware agnostic.
