Easy to setup and train a colleague for use. PXE boot is great as well within the application.

  • An OS deployment needs to be able to handle Pre, While and Post actions. For example when using PXE to boot to WinPE I would like to be able to manage pre settings such as specific BIOS settings or make firmware upgrade and such.
  • In addition to above it would be great to trigger actions based on wmi queries such as Make and Model.
  • Scripting I was told is ongoing function to be released but I would like to instead of having the need to creat a script file such as a PS1 file and upload I would like the option to write the code directly in the UI for the specific template. This will make it easier to update.

  • As ManageEngine OS Deployer is currently just in testing mode it yet haven't had a impact on our business but the possibility to manage different Remote Offices is a great deal and will make deployment easier.
