Endpoint Operating System
SnapOS
Endpoint operating system
Own It. Don't Rent It.
Modern IT environments are more distributed, complex, and exposed than ever. Endpoints running traditional operating systems carry large attack surfaces, demand constant patching, and accumulate licensing costs that compound over time.
SnapOS solves that on the x86 hardware you already have, or inside a virtual machine, no forklift replacement and no vendor lock-in required. Every endpoint is centrally managed through AmZetta zMAN Director.
Licensing
Buy it once, or subscribe. Your call.
Most vendors in this category only rent you the OS. SnapOS is different - buy a perpetual license and own it outright, or subscribe if that fits your budget cycle better.
Perpetual License
Buy the license once and own it outright. An annual maintenance contract (AMC) is required to keep support and updates active, available in 1-, 3-, or 5-year terms.
Subscription
One monthly fee covers the license, centralized management, and support together - nothing separate to track or renew. Available in 1- or 3-year terms.
zMAN Director's centralized management is included either way. Pricing depends on fleet size and term - request a demo and we will walk you through what fits.
Benefits
Why organizations choose SnapOS
Shrink the Attack Surface
Immutable, read-only OS with no local data storage. No persistent malware foothold and nothing to patch at the endpoint level.
Reduce Endpoint Costs
Eliminate Windows licensing, antivirus subscriptions, and patch management overhead. Extend the life of hardware you already own.
Own It, Don't Rent It
Buy once with a perpetual license, or subscribe if that fits better. Either way, it's yours to run, not something you rent back from us.
Work Anywhere, Securely
Deliver a consistent endpoint experience across offices, branch locations, remote workers, and public networks.
Flexible Migration Paths
Move fully to SnapOS today, or run dual boot when phased transition is needed for your environment.
Any Device, Any Vendor
Runs on x86-64 UEFI devices or inside a VM. Vendor-neutral across Citrix, Omnissa Horizon, AVD, and WorkSpaces.
Windows migration
Move from Windows to SnapOS without starting over.
Repurpose existing Windows 10 and Windows 11 systems with the SnapOS Windows Migration Tool. The migrator automates the transition to SnapOS while giving IT teams control over how each endpoint is converted.
Replace Windows
Convert the existing Windows endpoint into a dedicated SnapOS device. The migrator replaces the current Windows installation and prepares the system to run SnapOS as its primary endpoint operating system.
Run in Dual Mode
Install SnapOS alongside the existing Windows installation when you need a more gradual transition. Users can continue accessing Windows while your team evaluates, deploys, or phases in SnapOS.
