- Install multiple packages in a single operation and automatically install prerequisite packages with prerequisite checking and package chaining.
- Easily select targets with a task scheduler that integrates with directory service and asset inventory databases.
- Deploy any package type with package-agnostic distribution and access multifile MSI support.
OS Deployment and Profile Migration
- More efficiently perform OS deployment and organize OS configurations with the included efficient OS deployment tool.
- Rapidly provision “bare-metal” machines using PXE proxy technology.
- Capture user and application settings, desktop settings and user data with automated profile migration.
- Deploy disk images from any imaging tool with image-agnostic distribution.
- Automatically complete post-image configuration with automated SYSPREP.
- Automatically deploy applications.

- Easily plan upgrades and respond to audits with detailed hardware and software inventories, custom data fields and software usage monitoring.
- Get a complete view with detailed asset tag and serial number information, embedded pointing device, fixed drive and CD-ROM data.
- Access a reporting dashboard and publish reports to a file share in HTML, PDF, DOC, RTF or XLS formats.
- Access inventory service performance that’s up to 30% more efficient than other options and includes the option to utilize between one and eight threads.
- Offload data collection and insertion to a server other than the core for increased efficiency.
- Use bandwidth efficiently with automatic unmanaged device discovery (UDD), agentless inventory and delta inventory scans with compression.
- Enjoy complete inventory management and asset discovery, monitoring and change control alerting for handheld, embedded and wireless devices.
- Access efficient software distribution with checkpoint and integrated task scheduling to define, schedule and automate software deployments.
- Get less bandwidth-intensive handheld, embedded and wireless device management with bandwidth throttling.
- Enjoy push and pull file transfer capabilities.
- Perform out-of-band discovery on Intel®vPro™-based hardware and software assets.
- Remotely heal Intel vPro-based systems regardless of OS or system state.
- Redirect screen output and use boot redirection to repair non-responsive systems.
- Access Intel vPro Agent Presence that monitors to ensure agents are still present and active and System Defense that scans for viruses and worms and isolates or restricts infected machines.
- Agent watcher restarts a downed agent, restores a renamed agent to its original state and alerts your IT team if an end user removes or tampers with the agent—so IT stays in control and end users can’t wreak havoc.
- Supported platforms include handheld devices running Java, Palm or Windows Mobile; embedded devices running Wyse, HP or Teklogix; Neoware and Capio One devices running the Windows CE image; desktops and laptops running Windows, Mac OS, HP-UX, IBM AIX, Mandrivia, Novell NetWare, Linux and Solaris.
