This hardware agnostic solution streamlines initial provisioning and ongoing administration of master system images and driver updates across diverse hardware platforms — reducing operational costs while ensuring that connected systems remain up to date and secure. Plus, it restores settings and files so users can immediately be productive with their newly imaged systems.
