CTL Partners with Instinctive Solutions, Inc. to Simplify Chromebook Rollouts

With a volume purchase of Chromebooks, CTL customers can get a free 3-month subscription to Instinctive Checkout Software

, /PRNewswire/ — CTL, a leading global cloud-computing solution provider for education and enterprise, today announced a powerful new partnership with Instinctive Solutions, Inc. This limited-time offer allows K-12 schools to receive a free 3-month subscription to Instinctive Checkout software with qualifying fleet purchases of CTL Chromebooks. This initiative simplifies Chromebook rollouts and returns, freeing up valuable time for school IT staff while enhancing the overall EdTech experience.

The manual processes of checking Chromebooks in and out to students and staff can consume countless hours for school IT departments and library teams, diverting critical resources from core educational initiatives. This promotion addresses these challenges by enabling immediate, automated association of devices with students and staff.

“We understand the immense pressure school IT teams face at back-to-school time, especially when managing large Chromebook fleets,” said Jeremy Burnett, VP of Technology at CTL. “Our new partnership with Instinctive Checkout enables us to provide a comprehensive solution that not only equips schools with reliable CTL Chromebooks but also empowers them with the tools to manage these devices effortlessly. This means more time for higher-level IT tasks, like cybersecurity, for example, and less time on logistics.”

“CTL is a natural fit with Instinctive on this offer. CTL specializes in education and ChromeOS technology, but beyond that, they’re one of the few OEMs dedicated to helping schools with the full Chromebook lifecycle, including with their Enhanced Zero-Touch services,” said Max Kirsch, Founder and CEO of Instinctive Solutions, Inc. “Now, Instinctive Checkout completes the ‘last mile,’ so CTL Chromebooks arrive at school ready to issue to staff and students, and school IT teams can have a stress-free first week of school.”
