    Chose Symantec Ghost Solution Suite
    Once the research had been done, it seemed that Symantec Ghost Solution Suite was the best suited for our environment. The initial cost was fair and the return on investment was well worth what we had to pay up front. I would recommend Ghost Solution Suite to any larger company.

    It helps to manage the mass of computers we use. We use GSS to see where and who deployed software to what computers. This can particularly be helpful when dealing with license usage, and tracking how many licenses we have left, and where those licenses have been used. We are able to use it to manage clients.

    • Setting up PXE has a learning curve.
    • Still trying to figure out if we can create one golden (master) image for all hardware types.
    • Would love a way to be able to refresh PCs with effecting user and program data.
