Product Spotlight: Software eases Windows install process
Summary
SMART is a division of Global Resale, a Microsoft Authorized Refurbisher with headquarters locations in Austin, Texas and Braintree, England. Microsoft provides licenses to install Windows and other software to companies and nonprofit organizations that sell and donate refurbished PCs. According to Global Resale, the process of registering as a third-party refurbisher and installing Windows on PCs has been complicated and can take a week or longer. Global Resale developed SMART in-house to automate some of the steps of registering, buying licenses and installing keys for Windows 10 Pro and Home operating systems. According to Global Resale, SMART is available to other MAR program members or third-party refurbishers, including ITAD firms, nonprofit groups, returns/repair companies and others.
