Pi3g significantly simplifies the use of Raspberry Pis in companies, complex Linux knowledge is no longer required for users. Especially teams with a Windows background need less training and special knowledge when they use PiCockpit to manage the company's Raspberry Pi fleet. This leads to considerable time and cost savings for the company, and reflects pi3g's goal of increasing the productivity of global business users.

Web-based terminal interface

The Terminal App PiCockpit provides a convenient web-based terminal interface for managing all Raspberry Pi devices from any location. Thanks to the Terminal App, complex network configuration or additional software like PuTTY is unnecessary. The underlying WebRTC technology ensures a secure, encrypted, end-to-end connection from the web browser directly to the Raspberry Pi. Thus, the app simplifies remote management of devices for companies and enables uncomplicated web-based remote access, across network boundaries.

Edit files from any web browser

With the new Editor App, users can now edit files on their Raspberry Pis from any web browser. Thanks to the built-in RaspiGPT technology, which is based on OpenAI's GPT-4, the app provides intelligent support in understanding files, writing scripts, and analyzing logs. This simplifies file management and accelerates development processes for companies.

For small and medium-sized businesses

The Pro Plan of PiCockpit is particularly aimed at small and medium-sized businesses, allowing them to scale beyond their first five free Pis. For a monthly fee of €9.95 including VAT per Raspberry Pi, users get unlimited access to all features. Thanks to two-factor authentication, PiCockpit ensures secure access to user accounts and Raspberry Pis.

Enterprise solution

PiCockpit Pro Plus, as an enterprise solution, expands the offer with custom software development and system integration services. PiCockpit Pro Plus offers companies a perfectly tailored Raspberry Pi solution that seamlessly integrates into their existing systems. This enables significant cost savings and an increase in operational efficiency.

PiCockpit: Simplified management, reduced costs

Maximilian Batz, founder of pi3g, explains: "Our goal has always been to make the use of Raspberry Pis as simple and efficient as possible. Businesses use the Raspberry Pi for many purposes. For them, the result, the business purpose, is always paramount - not the time-consuming configuration, operation, or dealing with Linux administration. Our new PiCockpit apps represent a major leap forward in saving companies time and money. We are especially excited about the RaspiGPT technology. It opens up many new possibilities, simplifying tasks that previously required extensive technical knowledge." (mk)
