The problem
- Installing a diverse set of software in a time efficient and cost effective way.
- Downloading latest versions of software
- Finding drivers and installing them.
- Replicating this across anything from a single system to 16 or more.
ICT teachers and technicians will appreciate the time taken to deploy systems ready for use in a school. The problem is schools often don’t run enough systems to make deployment technology cost effective.
Existing deployment solutions
- System Management such as SCCM and MDT.
- System imaging.
Maintaining deployment technologies is a continual and time consuming task. It works for large companies with hundreds of devices but for schools who typically have 16-32 of each hardware specification existing deployment technologies often take more time being installed, managed, supported and maintained than the time they save.
