All the excitement about Microsoft’s latest operating system shows that forward-thinking companies everywhere will likely be making the move sooner or later. Which means IT folks will be planning mass system upgrades, pushing a gazillion applications, and migrating untold terabytes of data to the new OS sooner rather than later.
Luckily, LANDesk® Management Suite 9 is the perfect tool for the task, because it manages all aspects of Windows 7 migration, from planning to implementation, migration, and validation.

In addition, it also::
  LANDesk Management Suite 9 maintains its position as one of the most detailed, meticulous software asset management solutions money can buy. Its advanced discovery features let you see the applications in your enterprise and drastically reduce both the likelihood of being audited and across-the-board software license expenditures.

Among its new features, LANDesk Management Suite 9 includes:
  • Includes system readiness reports—Planning a successful
    Windows 7 migration depends on a lot more than application
    compatibility. These reports detail how target systems could
    experience hiccups along the way.

  • Reduces costs—LANDesk Management Suite 9 decreases
    costs and simplifies migration with hardware-independent
    imaging and provisioning that minimizes the core server
    resources required for imaging hardware configurations.

  • Supports heterogeneous environments—LANDesk
    Management Suite 9 doesn’t even blink at the prospect
    of having to manage a network with machines running
    Windows 7, Windows® XP, Windows Vista—or even Macs
    running OS X.

  • Checks application compatibility—Don’t rush into an
    across-the-board Windows 7 implementation, only to discover after the fact that some employees’ most crucial apps no longer work.

  • Maintains existing user data—Avoid torpedoing user
    productivity during the migration process. Thanks to the
    application virtualization in LANDesk Management Suite 9,
    as soon as Windows 7 is installed, users can resume work with all their same preferences and settings.
 
  • An all-new interface—Users can now see and manage data
    in ways that meet their singular needs: IT administrators can view the network from a product perspective, license administrators can view it from a license perspective, and managers can take an organizational or group perspective.
  • Software normalization and inventory data

    improvements—Filter inventory data through a system with
    information on thousands of products and manufacturers.
    Obtain more accurate product and file recognition with normalized data that can be leveraged by LANDesk® Asset Lifecycle Manager.

  • Dynamic products—Simplify asset management with version wildcarding that lets you merge multiple product versions into a single, dynamic product.

  • Return on investment (ROI) reports—Obtain the information you need to manage licenses more wisely and reduce license costs. Additional reports help decrease the likelihood of being audited—as well as avoid being stuck with major fees in the event you are.
Hardened Endpoint Security Safeguard your systems with a
new personal firewall, superior data protection, and cutting-edge antivirus capabilities.
