Question

​​Identifying your “cloud workers”: how are you approaching it?

Hi all,

As more teams look at modernising their environments, one question comes up again and again:

who in your organisation is actually doing most of their work in the browser already?


Understanding that can make a big difference when it comes to planning ChromeOS pilots, right-sizing hardware, or deciding where a phased approach makes the most sense.


One tool available for that is the ChromeOS Readiness Tool, which helps analyse device usage, browser and extension patterns and application dependencies to surface users who may already be strong candidates for a cloud-first setup.


I’m curious to hear whether any of you have used the ChromeOS Readiness Tool (or another tool) to assess how “cloud-based” your users really are?

It’d be also interesting to hear about your approach to users who are almost cloud-ready, but still rely on one or two legacy applications.

If helpful, there’s a community post that dives deeper into how the ChromeOS Readiness Tool works and how teams are using it in practice — worth a look if you’re exploring this space.

Keen on learning how others are tackling this 💪
