Auto Shutdown Manager is being used in many large, medium and small enterprises, universities, colleges and schools (EDU), as well as in government agencies (GOV) and non-profit organizations (NPOs) all over the world. See some examples here.

Nowadays, with energy prices rising continuously, both consumers and enterprises are looking for ways to save energy effectively - but without changing the familiar working style. Most importantly, benefits result from energy - and therefore cost savings. According to several researchers, on average, 20 % of all computers are not shut down at all at night or over weekends. Lunch breaks or long absences from the desk are not even mentioned.

Auto Shutdown Manager operates even if no users are logged on in a so-called full background or service mode. All operations are supported in this mode, including power up, power down, restart, standby, updates and patches, deployment and receiving of new settings, and the execution of time rules.

The Management Console allows configuration, updates, management and deployment of power management settings and policies from one central place. All clients are managed by groups.
The Management Console also supports daily administration tasks such as remote wake up, shutting down, logging users off and restarting single PCs or selected PC groups.

What does "idle" mean, and why is it so important to know?

In the sense of power management, idle means that a computer is switched on but is not running any productive or useful codes. Idle PCs consume energy and produce heat, but do nothing useful or productive. PCs left on after work are a good example.

Remote shutdown and remote wake up are obviously very useful functions that can make the administrators' and the end users' lives easier. It is not only important to prevent hazards such as virus attacks, as some PCs or entire PC groups can be powered down immediately from one central place, it also performs regular service and maintenance tasks such as patch management, data backups; overnight scans, and the like much more efficiently by powering the required machines up and down on schedule or instantly on demand.
