Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • -Very easy to deploy images across various machines despite hardware differences. -Extremely easy to set up and use. -Driver packs are updated with almost all models. -The cloud deploying option is wonderful. -1 month trial with all features -Customer service and Sales teams are very helpful and supportive.
  • - Easy to learn and use for imaging units. - Cloud integration allows us to image units in the filed, where we could not before. - Application Packs are very handy for rolling out software quickly. - And Platform Packs make sure we have the latest drivers and firmware on a newly imaged unit as well as a unit already deployed.
  • Setup process was very easy and quick. Their site has tons of documentation and videos on how to get the product setup. Smart deploy cut down our imaging and setup times to a fifth of what it was before. Combined with WDS our imaging process from start to finish takes 15 minutes.
  • Driver packs make deployment easy. Single gold image is all that is needed. Easy to customize answer file. Easy to create application packs.
  • • Quick Golden Image Setup • Easy to Deploy local or Remote • No more manual Sysprep • Mgmt. of all machines in once location • Driver Packs deploy with EASE!!!!

Cons

  • -The user interface needs an update I guess. It looks a bit old-fashioned. -Lack of proper documentation. -Deploying your Anti Virus through your golden image is a little bit challenging.
  • - No Single Management console if you have multiple servers as deployment servers (This feature was not available and was disclosed when we purchased). - Also no sync option for when you update an image to push it to a multiple server deployment setup (Really wish this were an option). - Custom Application Packs are a little tricky to build (But can be done). - Not ALL Platform Packs are the latest available drivers and firmware (But for the most part they are).
  • Wish there was a way for multiple admins to be signed into SD at once on the same server.
  • Nothing really. Would like more available pre-packaged apps.
  • • More Built in Application Packs • No Cloud Mgmt. Tool (Hopeful in coming releases)
