Complete PC system deployment solution using disk imaging technology

All private and public sector organizations (businesses, schools, federal/state/local governments, etc.) face increasing challenges when configuring and deploying new PCs and workstations in a distributed environment. Having a deployment solution that enables them to use a standard configuration for a new machine will significantly decrease support expenses.

Acronis^® Snap Deploy^® 3 for Workstation is a comprehensive deployment solution that enables IT organizations deploy or restore laptops and desktops quickly and easily. Note that this version of the product does not support server operating systems.

Using Acronis' award-winning disk imaging technology, Acronis Snap Deploy creates an exact disk image of the standard configuration, including the operating system, configuration files and all applications. It then deploys that image to multiple systems simultaneously, making it ideal for rapid bare-metal installations.

IT support has the option to deploy new machines using both the multicast and unicast protocols, providing maximum flexibility and reducing implementation.
