User reports and case studies from our customers
The challenge
Used PCs, servers and notebooks must be audited, tested and securely deleted. All system information, test results and deletion certificates should be transferred centrally to a database for further processing. The essential boundary conditions are a fully automated process, network-controlled and highly parallel processes. However, the central aspect remains data deletion.
The implementation
EURATECH has been using toolhouse software products since 2005. IT products from notebooks to servers are tested with toolstar®testLX. The advantages of use are demonstrated by the integrated deletion tool toolstar®shredder. All specifications regarding the level of detail of the system information, the duration and intensity of the tests, the deletion procedure and the logging are determined via the long-term test settings of toolstar®testLX with Shredder. At the same time, the devices are booted via LAN/PXE and toolstar®testLX with Shredder automatically begins the audit. Then tests and data deletion take place. The results are then saved network-controlled and imported into the database system. Each test and deletion result is assigned to the corresponding device via the asset or serial number contained in the file name and report and can be accessed at any time.

Right tools
toolstar®test OS is an application that works self-booting with its own operating system. This means that all hardware components in a computer can be tested directly and precisely at the lowest level. toolstar®test OS is now used at all test stations and ensures quick and reliable error analysis with precise processes. This saves valuable time, allowing Geodis to optimize and expand service capacities without major investments. toolstar®test OS works with predefined scripts or individually adapted ones and allows technicians to increase the throughput of tested PCs. For all tested PCs or notebooks, toolstar®test OS creates a clearly identifiable log that contains both system information and test reports.
The result
toolhouse updates the test software at regular intervals and also makes individual adjustments upon request. This ensures that the latest components are also tested and the test processes are regularly optimized. By using toolstar®test OS, Geodis achieves a time saving of 15% per workstation and increases work performance accordingly.
In numbers this means: calculated over an eight-hour day, using toolstar®test OS saves 72 minutes of time per workstation.
