Chrome OS is gaining traction across all industries, especially education, with Google Cloud today highlighting the deployment of Chromebooks at Square. Known for its mobile-based payments reader, the company is offering Pixelbooks to new employees and piloting with the design team.
Google has found great success with Chrome OS in education given the affordability, easy management, and simplicity. In parallel, the company is continuing to push G Suite adoption in the enterprise market. The latest effort involves a Chromebook loaner program that companies can set up internally for employees named “Grab n Go.”
Chromebooks have made great headway into the education space over the past several years. Google is now trying to replicate that success with large businesses by launching a new Chrome Enterprise subscription service that aims to drive Chrome OS adoption in corporate environments.
