1 - Use Case Definition

Secure SaaS and web app access without Windows overhead

Primary use case

Secure, scalable access to SaaS and web applications without the cost, complexity, and risk of traditional Windows endpoints or VDI-heavy architectures.

Position IGEL as the modern endpoint foundation for SaaS-first enterprises: secure by default, centrally managed, and built for browser-first work.

Target customers

  • - SaaS-first or SaaS-dominant enterprises.
  • - Organizations modernizing their endpoint strategy to reduce risks and costs
  • - Distributed workforces with contractors, BYOD, or rapid onboarding.

High-fit industries

  • - Financial services, healthcare, retail.
  • - Public sector, BPO, and distributed workforce operators.

IGEL angle: 50-75% endpoint cost reduction.

3 - The Problem

The endpoint model lags behind the SaaS reality

Customer reality

Most enterprises still rely on

  • - Full Windows endpoints for browser work.
  • - VDI sessions for web-only workflows.
  • - Multiple endpoint agents and VPNs.

This creates

  • - Double cost (Windows plus VDI for SaaS access).
  • - Security blind spots inside browser sessions.
  • - Operational drag from patching, imaging, and support.

Key insight for sales

The endpoint model has not caught up to the SaaS reality.

4 - IGEL Value Proposition

Secure, hardware-agnostic, built for SaaS-first work

Core message

IGEL is a secure, hardware-agnostic endpoint OS purpose-built for SaaS and web applications. It removes the need to manage a full Windows stack while delivering Zero Trust alignment, centralized control at scale, and a fast, frictionless user experience.

Zero Trust alignment

Preventative Security Model with a read-only OS.

Centralized control

Policy and configuration at scale via IGEL UMS.

Fast user experience

Native browser performance with instant login.

5 - Solution Architecture

Simple explainers for SaaS-first delivery

What IGEL does

  • - Replaces Windows with IGEL OS (immutable, read-only).
  • - Delivers SaaS access via secure browsers or enterprise browser partners.
  • - Enforces policy from boot to browser session.
  • - Centralizes control through IGEL UMS.

What IGEL eliminates

  • - Local data risk.
  • - Endpoint patching cycles.
  • - Overbuilt VDI for browser work.
  • - Hardware refresh pressure.
6 - Key Differentiators

Why IGEL wins in SaaS-first environments

Why IGEL wins

Preventative Security Model

No writable OS, no persistence.

Hardware independence

Reuse existing PCs and laptops.

Operational scale

1 admin per 10k endpoints.

Zero Trust ready

Integrates with ZTNA, SSE, enterprise browsers.

User experience

Native browser performance and instant login.

7 - Discovery Questions

Surface fit early with SaaS-first prompts

  1. 1. How much daily work happens in SaaS or browser apps today?
  2. 2. Are you using VDI primarily to access web applications?
  3. 3. How do you enforce security policies inside browser sessions?
  4. 4. How many tools or agents run on a typical endpoint?
  5. 5. What would it change if SaaS access did not require Windows?
8 - Positioning Talk Track

Short-form positioning to open the conversation

“Most organizations still use full Windows endpoints and VDI to access SaaS. IGEL removes that overhead by delivering a secure, centrally managed endpoint OS designed specifically for browser-first work - cutting cost, reducing risk, and simplifying IT operations.”

9 - Common Objections

Respond clearly without over-claiming

We already secure access with VPN/SSE.

VPNs protect networks, not endpoints or browser behavior. IGEL secures the device itself.

VDI already works.

VDI works, but it is expensive and unnecessary for SaaS. IGEL lets you reserve VDI for the few apps that truly need it.

Users need Windows.

Most users need browsers. IGEL supports Windows apps where required without making Windows the default.

10 - Proof Points & Outcomes

Lead with measurable outcomes

  • - Up to 75% lower endpoint TCO.
  • - Minutes to deploy new SaaS users.
  • - No local data, reduced ransomware exposure.
  • - Extended hardware lifespan and sustainability gains.
11 - When to Lead With This Use Case

Trigger signals that indicate strong fit

  • - Customer is modernizing EUC or Zero Trust.
  • - VDI costs are under scrutiny.
  • - Browser-based tools dominate workflows.
  • - Contractors, BYOD, or rapid onboarding matter.
12 - Close: The IGEL Frame

Anchor the conversation on the endpoint foundation

IGEL is not a point solution. It is the endpoint foundation that enables SaaS, Zero Trust, and cloud-first strategies securely, efficiently, and at scale.

Close checklist

  • - Confirm SaaS and browser-first workflows dominate.
  • - Align on security posture and operational simplicity goals.
  • - Identify a pilot-ready group to validate outcomes.
