Reduce the time and cost to create and deploy disk images across any platform.

SmartDeploy® is the first hardware-independent imaging toolset that uses boot time driver-injection, simplifying deployment and easing distribution by reducing total image count.

  • Dramatically reduce the number of images that have to be maintained by the IT team
  • Deploy Windows Vista in record time with minimal IT support
  • Minimal back end ideal for 100’s of users to 100,000’s of users
  • Single reference image created once and deployed broadly to all end points, whether virtual or physical
  • Lightweight update method allows you to quickly keep images secure and up-to-date without major bandwidth impact

Deploy Vista in record time!

Architecture
Without SmartDeploy With SmartDeploy
Time Lots of waiting time during imaging, complete new images required for updates Images are created once and then only small delta changes are applied to the single reference image for updates
Storage Runaway use of disk space for image libraries Efficient infrastructure; only a single reference image is required
Bandwidth Network brought to its knees; users impacted Lightweight updates can be smaller than iTunes download package
Branch office Improvising and losing productivity Secure and up-to-date; self-service deployment
Knowledge Constantly learning imaging tricks Wizards make imaging easy for anyone (next, next, finish)
Different hardware platforms, virtualization environments New images created and distributed for each platform Only one image ever required

Description

The Prowess SmartDeploy® product suite eases the challenges associated with building, deploying, and managing computer systems. SmartDeploy’s innovative features increase IT administrator productivity, saving time and money:

  • Reduces storage requirements
  • Less impact on bandwidth
  • Reduces deployment time
  • Hardware-independent
  • Eliminates extra infrastructure required for deployment
  • Supports both physical and virtual machines
  • Operates across well-connected and disconnected environments
  • Industry first a-la-carte component licensing model

Common solutions to deployment problems typically require considerable investment in learning and additional infrastructure, and can be a drain on network bandwidth needed for core business functions. Prowess reverses this trend with the Prowess SmartDeploy product suite. SmartDeploy helps solve the challenges associated with managing system deployment in large networks including:

  • Simplifies addition of patches and updates into system images
  • Enables system image deployment in limited bandwidth environments
  • Reduces the total number of system images required due to varying hardware platforms and user configurations
  • Centralizes and simplifies management of drivers and other hardware-related
  • Reduces time and cost of additonal learning and growing specialized skill sets

SmartDeploy helps businesses manage IT endpoints with leading deployment, virtualization, and recovery solutions for workstations, servers, and storage assets.
