Introduction

What StageReady is

StageReady is a SaaS that automates bare-metal Windows device provisioning for Managed Service Providers (MSPs). It turns hours of manual laptop setup into a simple flow: plug in a USB stick, type a one-time 6-digit code, and walk away.

Because it's a cloud service, there's nothing for you to host or maintain. Your technicians sign in with their existing Microsoft 365 work account, and the only physical artifact is a "dumb" USB stick that carries no passwords and no client data.

Who it's for

StageReady is built for MSPs that provision Windows devices for multiple client organizations on Microsoft 365 / Entra ID. It fits teams that care about consistency, security, and a provable record of what was done to every device.

The problem it solves

• Manual device setup eats your most expensive resource: technician time.
• Homemade USB scripts often carry admin credentials in plain text — a real liability when a stick goes missing or a technician leaves.
• Every client is a little different, and script sprawl becomes unmaintainable.
• When a client asks "what did you actually do to these laptops?", there's often no record.

Where to go next

• Templates, profiles, and tenants — the core building blocks, and when you actually need a tenant.
• How provisioning works — the end-to-end flow.
• Security model — how credentials and codes are protected.
• New to the terminology? The glossary explains every acronym.
