Builders’ merchant deploys 10ZiG modernized zero clients across nine branches to simplify endpoint management, support Microsoft Azure infrastructure and streamline IT operations

Leicester, UK – May 26, 2026 – 10ZiG® Technology, a leading provider of thin and zero client hardware and software solutions for VDI, DaaS, and web application environments, today announced that Beesley & Fildes, one of the Northwest of England’s oldest independent builders’ merchants, has deployed 10ZiG modernized zero clients across its branch network to strengthen cybersecurity, simplify endpoint management and support the company’s long-term cloud computing strategy.

Established in 1820, Beesley & Fildes is a multi-million pound, family-owned builders’ merchant operating nine branches across the Northwest of England. The business supplies building materials to a wide variety of trades including construction, civil engineering, landscaping, plumbing and heating, kitchens and bathrooms, joinery and roofing. Today, the company employs around 300 staff and supports a hybrid IT environment spanning branch operations, remote workers and cloud-hosted applications. 

The deployment forms part of Beesley & Fildes’ wider investment in Microsoft Azure cloud infrastructure and secure endpoint management. The company currently manages more than 150 endpoints across desktops, laptops and zero clients, underpinned by technologies including VPN connectivity, multi-factor authentication (MFA), remote monitoring and management (RMM), mobile device management (MDM) and conditional access controls. 

The decision to move to 10ZiG resulted as Beesley & Fildes’ previous thin client endpoint supplier, AXEL, ceased trading which created concerns around cybersecurity compliance and the inability to receive future firmware and security updates. 

After reviewing solutions from various vendors, 10ZiG was selected following a successful proof-of-concept trial involving 10ZiG modernized zero clients running 10ZiG’s locked down Linux NOS software connecting to a Remote Desktop Services (RDS) environment in Microsoft Azure. The final deployment included the purchase of powerful 10ZiG 7048q Series and ultra compact 10ZiG 4648q Series devices, managed centrally through free 10ZiG Manager software. 

“We take cybersecurity extremely seriously and simply could not continue running endpoints that were no longer receiving firmware and security updates,” explains Rob John, Beesley & Fildes’ IT Services Manager. “Our original devices themselves were still working perfectly well, but we had to protect the business and ensure we remained compliant from a cybersecurity perspective.”

“We looked at multiple vendors, but 10ZiG immediately stood out because they actually engaged with us to understand our environment,” adds John. “Other bigger vendors largely treated us as just  another order number whereas 10ZiG worked with us closely throughout the entire procurement process. We trialed their devices, connected them to our Azure environment and quickly realised just how easy they are to deploy and manage.” 

Supplied by 10ZiG partner, Panacea Logic, the new endpoints enable staff across branch counters and sales offices to access core business applications including Microsoft 365 and Epicor BisTrack, the company’s specialist ERP platform designed for the building supply industry. 

Using 10ZiG Manager, Beesley & Fildes automated device naming, remote configuration and deployment processes, significantly reducing rollout times and simplifying ongoing endpoint administration.

“The automation within 10ZiG Manager has been hugely impressive,” says Shaun Partington, Beesley & Fildes’ IT Systems Administrator. “We were able to configure the management platform so that devices automatically renamed themselves and pulled down the correct configuration profile as soon as they connected to the network.”

“In practical terms, that meant we could deploy devices incredibly quickly,” adds Partington. “Once the prep work had been completed, we literally plugged a zero client device into the network and within seconds it was configured and ready for the user.”

The rollout across nine sites was therefore completed easily by Beesley & Fildes’ two-person IT team, with no disruption to end users. Staff transitioned seamlessly onto the new endpoints while continuing to access the same cloud-hosted applications and services. 

“For us, one of the biggest successes was the simplicity and speed of deployment. Years ago, firmware updates involved physically travelling between branches with USB sticks,” says John. “With 10ZiG, everything is centrally managed and automated. That represents a massive operational improvement for a business like ours which operates across multiple sites. Users simply log in to access applications exactly as before. But behind the scenes, we now have far more modern, secure and manageable endpoint infrastructure.” 

Beesley & Fildes also sees the deployment as laying important foundations for future desktop virtualisation initiatives, including the potential future adoption of Microsoft Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD). 

“Organizations increasingly need endpoint solutions that simplify management while supporting secure, cloud-based work environments,” says James Broughton, 10ZiG’s Sales Director EMEA. “Beesley & Fildes is an excellent example of how companies can update endpoint infrastructure quickly while improving security, operational efficiency and long-term flexibility and we’re delighted to support their ongoing cloud and digital workplace strategy.”

Our Time at DMEA 2026

DMEA 2026

DMEA 2026 once again proved why it has become one of the most important events in the Healthcare IT calendar. Held at the Messe Berlin, the event brought together more than 22,000 attendees, 900 exhibitors, and over 200 sessions focused on the future of digital healthcare, telemedicine (DiGA) and mobile health technologies across the healthcare sector. 

Joining 10ZiG at the booth were valued partners zimmer & lange IT Systeme GmbH and ergo Computersysteme GmbH, with all three organizations enjoying three days of insightful discussions with healthcare providers, and technology leaders from across the DACH region. 

From the moment the exhibitors began preparing their stands ahead of the event, there was a real excitement surrounding DMEA 2026. By the opening morning, the exhibition centre was buzzing, as thousands of attendees arrived from across Germany and beyond by train, car, bicycle and scooter all eager to explore the latest innovations shaping the future of healthcare technology. That energy remained constant throughout the event, creating an incredibly engaging environment for discussions around digital transformation, security, infrastructure modernization and patient outcome focused technology.

Why DMEA Matters

Healthcare organizations across the DACH region are facing growing pressures to modernize IT infrastructure while continuing to deliver exceptional patient care. Rising operational costs, cybersecurity concerns, workforce pressures and evolving user expectations are forcing providers to rethink how technology is deployed, secured and managed across hospitals, clinics and healthcare facilities. 

DMEA provides the ideal platform for healthcare organizations to explore solutions capable of addressing these challenges head on. For 10ZiG, this event represented an opportunity to showcase how secure, flexible and centrally managed endpoint solutions can help healthcare providers simplify IT operations while improving the clinician and patient experience.

10ZiG’s approach continues to focus on enabling fast, secure and reliable access to virtual desktops and electronic health records, helping to reduce clinician log-in times, streamline workflows and support modern healthcare environments built around mobility and flexibility.  

Through the 10ZiG Ready Tech Alliance Program, 10ZiG continues to strengthen its position within the healthcare ecosystem by working closely with key technology partners including Imprivata, Amazon Workspaces, Citrix, Microsoft, Omnissa, Parallels and Nutanix.  These relationships help ensure that 10ZiG solutions integrate seamlessly with the technologies healthcare organizations already rely on every day.  

What We Heard from Healthcare Organizations

One of the biggest takeaways from DMEA 2026 was how consistent the challenges were across healthcare providers throughout the DACH region. Conversations repeatedly centred around rising costs for VDI platforms, increased secure operating system subscription fees, growing infrastructure complexity, and the operational burden of managing large estates of mixed endpoint devices across multiple sites.

Many organizations expressed frustration with environments that have become increasingly expensive and difficult to manage, often leading IT teams focused on maintaining legacy processes rather than driving modernization initiatives. At the same time, providers are under pressure to improve security posture, standardize user experiences, reduce operational overhead, and support increasingly mobile clinical workforces.

These challenges align closely with the solutions 10ZiG delivers.   

10ZiG’s single vendor endpoint strategy combines secure Thin Client and Zero Client hardware, secure Linux based operating systems for third-party x86 hardware, and a 100% free management server, all purpose-built for VDI, DaaS and WebApp environments.

By removing subscription complexity and enabling a flexible OS led strategy, 10ZiG helps healthcare organizations deliver a secure, intuitive, standardized and centrally managed user experience cross both native 10ZiG devices and existing PCs, laptops and third-party Thin Clients. 

This approach is particularly relevant for organizations balancing Windows end of life pressures, increasing operating system subscription costs, and growing cybersecurity concerns, all while managing constrained IT resources and constrained budgets.

Typical healthcare use cases discussed throughout the event included…

  • Shared workstations
  • Imprivata SSO workflows
  • Roaming clinicians
  • Nursing stations
  • Mobile clinical workstations
  • Multi-site endpoint management

Alongside 10ZiG hardware and operating systems themselves, 10ZiG Manager generated significant interest throughout the event. The zero touch deployment capabilities, remote shadowing and support, scheduled updates, role-based access, and simplified multi-site management resonated strongly with healthcare IT teams looking to reduce complexity and improve operational efficiency across distributed healthcare environments.  

Closing Thoughts

DMEA 2026 reinforced something that is becoming increasingly clear across Healthcare IT: flexibility matters more than ever. Organizations are under constant pressure to modernize infrastructure, improve security, reduce operational complexity, and support better patient outcomes, all while managing rising costs and limited resources.

What stood out most during the event was the growing desire to regain control. Control over endpoint strategy. Control over how desktops and applications are delivered to users. Organizations are no longer looking at isolated pieces of the puzzle, they are looking for long-term strategies that allow them to adapt as technology, security requirements and user demands evolve. 

This is exactly where 10ZiG continues to resonate. By combining secure endpoints, flexible Linux based operating systems and centralized management under one roof, 10ZiG helps organizations simplify the endpoint experience without sacrificing choice or future flexibility.  

Clinics and hospitals are increasingly looking for reliable, trusted, and stable technology partners rather than simply individual products. Many conversations at DMEA reinforced the importance of working with vendors that understand healthcare challenges and can provide long-term flexibility, consistency and support.

10ZiG continues to offer this level of vendor relationship with healthcare organizations across the DACH region and beyond. 

“DMEA 2026 was a fantastic event, and we greatly appreciated being part of the 10ZiG booth throughout the exhibition. The conversations with healthcare organizations highlighted a string demand for secure, flexible and manageable endpoint solutions that can help simplify increasingly complex IT environments”. 

Michael Zimmer, zimmer und lange GmbH

DMEA 2026 provided a great opportunity to connect with healthcare organizations actively evaluating how to modernize and simplify their endpoint environments. We are proud to support 10ZiG at the event and showcase solutions designed to give healthcare providers greater flexibility, security and long-term control over their infrastructure”.

10ZiG Drives Down Operating System Migration Costs with 10ZiG RepurpConvert

New zero-touch repurposing approach enables IT teams to convert existing PCs, laptops, and third-party thin clients into secure, managed endpoints for VDI, DaaS, and web application environments

PHOENIX – March 31, 2026 – 10ZiG® Technology, a leading provider of thin and zero client hardware and software solutions for VDI, DaaS, and web application environments, today announced RepurpConvert, an operating system (OS) conversion tool for Windows and Linux devices designed to help organizations extend the life of existing endpoint hardware while simplifying the transition from legacy environments such as Windows 10. The solution can be deployed either locally or remotely through existing remote management tools, giving IT teams added flexibility and control.

According to Statcounter, as many as 26% of Windows desktops are still running Windows 10, often due to hardware compatibility limitations with Windows 11, as well as the cost and complexity of upgrading or replacing existing devices. While the OS migration itself is relatively low cost, the real expense comes from the people, logistics, and disruption involved at scale. Coordinating upgrades often requires returning devices to base for reimaging or sending IT teams to remote locations, both of which add time, cost, and user disruption.

Built on 10ZiG’s repurposing software approach, RepurpConvert reduces the cost and effort required to convert PCs, laptops and third-party thin clients. RepurpConvert is designed to be a zero-touch solution that can be deployed locally or remotely to automate the conversion of existing endpoints into 10ZiG RepurpOS, a secure, managed endpoint optimized for modern VDI, DaaS, cloud and web-based workspaces.

“Many organizations are facing a difficult balance between moving away from aging Windows 10 estates and avoiding unnecessary hardware replacement costs and the significant effort involved in performing a migration,” said Kevin Greenway, CTO at 10ZiG Technology. “RepurpConvert is designed to address that challenge directly by giving IT teams a no-touch way to repurpose hardware they already own, deploy it at scale, and transition users into a more secure, standardized endpoint environment.”

Built for Practical Endpoint Transformation

RepurpConvert aligns with 10ZiG’s RepurpOS strategy of breathing new life into existing hardware with a purpose-built operating system for VDI, DaaS, cloud, and web application environments by reducing the labor and complexity associated with OS migration. 10ZiG’s repurposing model supports flexible deployment options, including USB live boot, local installation, and virtual machine use, and now includes RepurpConvert to automate the migration process, giving organizations multiple paths for evaluation, migration, and rollout.

The solution is particularly well suited for organizations looking to preserve endpoint investments while creating a more controlled, centrally managed environment. Key benefits include reduced hardware spend, longer asset life, stronger security, and simplified deployment and updates through a single management tool. The 10ZiG repurposing solution further helps reduce e-waste and operational overhead tied to maintaining legacy endpoint estates.

RepurpConvert arrives at a time when organizations are facing rising memory costs and constrained supply, which are driving up the price of new endpoint hardware, along with significant overhead tied not only to replacement hardware, software, licensing, and subscriptions, but also to the labor required to migrate existing endpoint estates, which can reach double- or even triple-digit costs per device. By automating the migration process remotely, RepurpConvert enables older devices to be repurposed into secure, high-performing endpoints, reducing both hardware procurement costs and the operational burden of manual migrations.

Designed to support enterprise-scale deployment scenarios, RepurpConvert helps automate the transition from Windows 10 and enables broader rollouts through tools such as Microsoft Intune and Microsoft SCCM. With RepurpConvert, 10ZiG extends its value proposition of no-hassle repurposing, centralized management, and a single-vendor path, allowing customers to repurpose existing devices today while maintaining the flexibility to adopt new 10ZiG hardware over time.

10ZiG Technology Introduces Multi-Environment Support for YubiKey (FIDO2) Authentication to Strengthen Passwordless Security Across Endpoints

10ZiG Technology Introduces Multi-Environment Support for YubiKey (FIDO2) Authentication to Strengthen Passwordless Security Across Endpoints

10ZiG Technology Introduces Multi-Environment Support for YubiKey (FIDO2) Authentication to Strengthen Passwordless Security Across Endpoints

New FIDO2-based authentication capability enhances Zero Trust aligned identity protection for hybrid environments including Microsoft Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD), Citrix and Omnissa Horizon and Workspace ONE

PHOENIX, December 10, 2025 – 10ZiG® Technology, a global leader in thin and zero client endpoint solutions for VDI, DaaS and SaaS workspaces, today announced new support for YubiKey (FIDO2) authentication for Microsoft Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD), Citrix and Omnissa Horizon and Workspace ONE. This capability enables organizations to deliver phishing resistant, passwordless authentication across 10ZiG endpoints and improves identity security for hybrid workers who move between multiple devices throughout the day.

The new FIDO2 authentication workflow is supported from the latest version of 10ZiG Linux operating systems, including10ZiG NOS™, PeakOS™ and RepurpOS™, and through the 10ZiG Secure Browser (a secure browsing solution built on the Chromium Embedded Framework). Users can authenticate by tapping a hardware security key, providing a stronger and more convenient alternative to passwords, authenticator apps or mobile device-based MFA.

“With our new FIDO2 WebAuthn authentication support, we are giving customers a highly secure, low friction way to protect user access across thin clients, laptops and BYOD devices,” said Kevin Greenway, CTO of 10ZiG Technology. “FIDO2 keys offer true phishing resistant multi-factor authentication (MFA) at a very low cost, and by integrating this natively through our Secure Browser, we are making it easy for organizations to adopt modern passwordless access without additional tools or agents.”

Purpose Built Passwordless Authentication for AVD and Hybrid Work

As organizations continue shifting toward cloud hosted desktops, browser-based applications and hybrid work strategies, secure identity access has become a central requirement of modern IT architecture. Native FIDO2 authentication support for AVD, Citrix and Omnissa-powered workspaces allows IT teams to deliver consistent, hardware-backed identity verification across 10ZiG endpoints, corporate laptops and personal devices.

The new support delivers a predictable, passwordless login experience no matter where users work or what device they are using. This approach provides strong protection against credential theft because it removes passwords entirely. No secrets are stored or transmitted during login and the private key never leaves the hardware token, which protects against phishing, MFA fatigue, credential replay and other identity attacks.

User Experience, Operational Efficiency and Strategic Alignment

FIDO2 authentication simplifies the user journey for workers who frequently move between thin clients, Windows devices, macOS systems and BYOD hardware. A single tap on the key provides fast, secure access to supported VDI and DaaS platforms, without the need for mobile phones, authenticator apps or SMS codes. This significantly reduces daily friction and removes concerns related to personal device use for work authentication. 

From an operational standpoint, organizations adopting FIDO2 typically experience fewer password reset tickets and fewer MFA re-enrollment issues, which lowers help desk workloads and improves overall support efficiency. Extending passwordless authentication across multiple workspace delivery platforms helps unified identity workflows and further simplifies administration. FIDO2 authentication also supports compliance requirements for organizations seeking stronger identity controls. This approach is aligned with the industry’s move toward passwordless identity and cloud-first authentication and allows customers to modernize their security posture without the need for additional licensing, agents or third party authentication tools.

Support for YubiKey FIDO2 authentication is available now through the latest 10ZiG firmware update version 16.5.39.4 or above on devices using 10ZiG NOS, PeakOS and RepurpOS operating systems. All new 10ZiG devices and OS subscriptions will include Secure Browser and FIDO2 WebAuthn support at no additional cost.

PHOENIX – December 3, 2025 – 10ZiG® Technology, a global leader in thin and zero-client endpoint solutions for VDI, DaaS, and SaaS workspaces, today announced the launch of the 10ZiG Secure Browser, a new Chromium Embedded Framework (CEF)–powered browser designed to deliver secure, tightly governed web access within 10ZiG’s endpoint ecosystem. The Secure Browser is now available across all major 10ZiG operating systems, including NOS™, PeakOS™, and RepurpOS™.

“With the introduction of our Secure Browser, we’re further strengthening the security posture for web-based work in thin or zero-client endpoints without the requirement of additional licenses or tools. Organizations can now deliver browser access that is purpose-built for restricted use-cases, aligned with our single-vendor strategy of secure, high-performing devices and free centralized management,” said Kevin Greenway, CTO of 10ZiG Technology.

Purpose-built, Secure Web Access for Modern IT Environments

As organizations continue shifting toward browser-based applications, virtual desktops, and cloud-hosted workspaces, ensuring secure and predictable web access has become a central requirement of modern IT strategies. The new 10ZiG Secure Browser supports this evolution by providing a controlled alternative to general-purpose browsers and strengthening the overall security posture of 10ZiG endpoints.

The 10ZiG Secure Browser delivers:

  • Function – An alternative to general-purpose browsers like Chrome or Firefox, it enables IT to provide controlled, locked-down access for specific web-based applications or kiosk scenarios.
  • Security – With deep integration with the 10ZiG secure ecosystem, it emphasizes Zero Trust Architecture principles with a minimal attack surface, secure boot, and USB restriction capabilities.
  • Availability – It is included seamlessly for 10ZiG NOS, PeakOS and RepurpOS, providing secure web authentication for connection to Citrix, Microsoft and Omnissa solutions. In addition, it can be added as a stand-alone connection type in PeakOS and RepurpOS for delivering secure and controlled web app connectivity.
  • Management – It is supported by full central management via the free, browser-based 10ZiG Manager™, allowing IT administrators to configure and deploy settings remotely.

The 10ZiG Secure Browser aligns with 10ZiG’s broader strategy to deliver dedicated, secure endpoint solutions optimized for VDI, DaaS, and SaaS environments, without added licensing fees.

Why a Secure Enterprise Browser Matters

As enterprise workflows increasingly move to the browser, organizations face a growing need to control and secure browser-based access. Omdia Research shows that 85% of the workday is spent using SaaS and web apps accessed via a browser, and 95% of organizations have experienced a browser-based attack in the past year. By integrating secure browsing directly into its firmware and operating systems, 10ZiG delivers the endpoint protection enterprises need to avoid these browser-based security risks without additional licensing, agents, or third-party tools.

The new 10ZiG Secure Browser is available now to existing customers by applying the latest 10ZiG firmware update (16.5.39 firmware feature set). All new 10ZiG devices and OS subscriptions will include the 10ZiG Secure Browser free of charge.
