In late 2020, Google acquired the notorious Neverware company, thanks to a product called CloudReady that allows individual users or large organizations to convert legacy Windows PCs and Macs to Chrome OS devices. The goal was to get you to use your aging computer as a Chromebook if it doesn’t run Windows or macOS as well as it used to. CloudReady continued to be available after Google bought Neverware. Now, it is reopened to service with its renewed form that has been worked on for a long time.
Renamed Chrome OS Flex and appears as a rebuilt version of CloudReady with support for all of Google’s code and resources. The working logic behind Chrome OS Flex is the same. You visit a website, download a Chrome OS system image that you can install on a USB drive, and then run that system on a PC or Mac. If you want, you can completely format the computer and change the default operating system to Chrome OS.
Chrome OS Flex is currently available to everyone, but Google is positioning the product more for businesses and educational institutions. Therefore, one of the biggest advantages of Chrome OS Flex is that it allows IT departments to manage devices like any other Chrome OS hardware. Flex can be deployed across multiple devices over a network, and IT departments can manage everything through Google’s Admin console.
