The CentraStage framework has been designed and built from the ground up for service providers who deliver managed IT services to Schools and Small/Medium Sized Businesses, with a focus on being cost-effective, flexible and part open-source.

The CentraStage vision is to enable the delivery of low-cost managed IT services, where every PC or server can be brought under the same management umbrella. We aim to work with our customers to deliver just the functionality they require - this drives down costs, increases efficiency and brings pro-active IT management to previously unmanageable devices.

It enables a central administrator to monitor and manage multiple remote computers over any network. This includes:

CentraStage uses a secure client-server architecture to allow devices running CentraStage to connect to the central Community Server from anywhere. Administration is entirely browser-based, so administrators can access the management console from any PC on the Internet.

CentraStage is officially distributed in the UK by Redstor.
