Instead of purchasing, installing, learning and maintaining multiple point solutions or struggling with costly over-featured software suites, KACE provides a single, integrated approach that handles virtually all of your systems-management challenges.
"We were using about seven different products to
perform the inventory, imaging and remote system management that we now
perform with just the KACE SMA and KACE SDA."

The KACE appliance creates a substantial reduction in the amount of time you would normally spend on routine but essential tasks such as inventory, patching, software distribution and updates, which is especially critical for organizations with limited staff and IT budgets. The KACE appliance often enables you to automate tasks that would typically require another full-time administrator.
"“The KACE Systems Management Appliance is helping us resolve issues
with technicians’ machines faster, supporting significant service
improvements for customers."
- Brian Hall, Network System Engineer, BCS
The KACE appliance reduces downtime by eliminating the need to have users surrender their computers to apply fixes or updates. By managing computer settings and security safeguards in a policy-based fashion, you’ll see an increased level of user satisfaction, often without service desk involvement.
"We expect personnel to work more productively
because they don't have to call us over IT problems thanks to the KACE
Appliances."
- Roman Breitling,
Head of IT, ADAC Nordbayern e.V.
Eliminating days and weeks of travel time for your IT administrators can save thousands annually, especially for geographically diverse organizations. Through remote imaging, management and administration, the KACE appliance virtually eliminates the need for IT administrators to incur travel time to accomplish deployment and maintenance tasks.
"When traveling between sites, we can still gain access to our IT
infrastructure through the KACE appliances. We have the tools to manage
environments remotely and keep systems highly available."
- Matthew
Fanning,
Lead VR Technician, Coal Services
The KACE appliance can save your organization thousands of dollars annually by helping you to more efficiently allocate licenses and renegotiate licenses fees. Instead of over-subscribing to ensure compliance, you can more accurately negotiate license contracts and avoid fines by understanding exactly which software is installed and in use.
"Now, with the KACE SMA, we can generate a report
in an hour that tells us how many licences and which versions of software we
have."
- Stephane Gros, IT
Manager, Ipanema Technologies
