Turn 1 Computer into 10

Modern desktop computers sit idle virtually the entire day while we read or type. Userful Desktop (formerly called DiscoverStation) leverages this unused computing power to create an environmentally efficient alternative to traditional desktop computing. Using Userful Desktop with Userful Multiplier, multiple users can work on a single computer by simply attaching up to 10 monitors, mice and keyboards.

  • Reduce CO2 emissions by up to 15 tons per year per system*

  • Reduce electronic waste by up to 80%

    • Reducing the number of computers in use has additional earth friendly benefits. Electronic waste is an increasing problem globally due to the quick obsolescence of electronics. This is compounded by the fact that computer waste is high in many toxic materials such as heavy metals and flame-retardant plastics, which easily leach into ground water and bio-accumulate.

  • Reduce your electricity bill, hardware and support costs

    • Going green will significantly reduce your electricity bill, and in an air-conditioned building the savings will be even higher. Userful Desktop's ability to turn 1 computer into 10 also saves you money by greatly reducing hardware and support costs.
