Diamond Assets: keeping pace with innovation

The pace of innovation

Diamond McKenna, CEO of Diamond Assets, starts by talking about technology innovation, noting that it grows exponentially. Staying ahead of the curve requires addressing more and more compounding issues, which can be difficult.

Apple was able to innovate in the enterprise and education space, as Mac and iPad are increasingly integrated into the office and schools. But because technology changes so quickly, how can you ensure you’re getting the most out of your device fleet?

Diamond Assets wants to address this question, partnering with Jamf on a sustainable device buyback program.

Who is Diamond Assets?

Next, Paula Currie, Senior VP of Business Development, Education at Diamond Assets, describes how Diamond Assets helps organizations sustainably plan their technology use by helping them decide:

• What devices they should buy and for how much
• When to sell their devices to get the most money for replacements
• How to create a long-terms plan to keep devices current

When Diamond Assets buys back technology, they destroy any data on the device and recycle them responsibly.

Clarity portal

To close, Tim Schigur, Diamond Asset’s Director of Business Development, draws from his experience as a school superintendent to explain how Diamond Assets helps schools save money and stay technologically up to date.

He also shows a live demo of their Clarity portal, which integrates with Jamf Pro or Jamf School to display information about your fleet, including:

• The number of devices and their average age
• Potential monetary value
• Percentage of your fleet that can handle OS updates

This simple-to-use free tool uses your real data to help organizations decide whether it’s time to start a buyback.
