“How hard can it be to upgrade Windows every few years?” Incredibly.
That's not news to you, but how often do you consider exactly what's involved in a Microsoft Windows and Office deployment across your organisation?
Whether you’re upgrading to Windows 7 or Windows 8.1, desktop deployment done right is a very challenging and tedious process that often involves countless hours of staff time focused on:
- Collecting hardware and software inventory for your desktop deployment.
- Packaging and installing software applications.
- Remediation and compatibility testing.
- Distributing and installing updates to software, like security fixes.
- Specifying the desired configuration and upgrading your fleet accordingly.
- Measuring software usage.
- Remotely controlling computers to provide troubleshooting support.
