Complete system deployment solution using disk imaging technology.

Businesses today face increasing challenges when it comes to configuring and deploying new machines in a distributed, corporate environment. Having a deployment solution in place that enables businesses to use a standard configuration for a new PC or server can decrease support expenses significantly.

Acronis has a solution to address this need. Acronis Snap Deploy 2.0 is a comprehensive deployment solution that enables organizations to deploy new machines quickly and easily.

Using Acronis' own award-winning disk imaging technology, the product creates an exact disk image of the standard configuration, including the operating system and all applications. It then deploys that image to multiple systems simultaneously, making it ideal for rapid bare-metal installations of PCs and servers. Businesses have the option to deploy new machines using both the multicast and unicast protocols, providing maximum flexibility.

Acronis Snap Deploy 2.0 also provides configuration management tools to configure system settings, manage files, and execute applications on systems throughout the network.
