Group Policy Software Installation
Specops Deploy is a major upgrade from Microsoft's native Group Policy Software Installation software distribution.
Feel free to contact us for more information on how to upgrade
from GPSI (Group Policy Software Installation) to a more mature software deployment/software distribution process using Group Policy + Specops Deploy.
Reporting

Specops Deploy offers detailed feedback of all software deployment,
reporting that is impossible natively in Group Policy Software Installation (GPSI).
This
information is displayed both as numbers, updated in real-time, and as graphs
depicting success rate and deployment events over time. It is possible to drill down to specific client error messages, if needed.
Getting good feedback is the key to a successful software deployment/software distribution process.

Customer quote
Bill Barnes (RHCE Bloomsburg University):
"In
an academic library settings, client reimaging has become a common procedure.
When you reimage often, many software distribution management packages fail or
are tricky to get working correctly. We chose Specops Deploy to fill the gap
between the built in Group Policy Software installation and SMS. It is working so
reliably for us, we're starting to remove SMS clients off the public computers,
using Specops Deploy!"
Product reviews
AppDeploy
"The option to expand upon Group Policy instead of replacing it is
the real beauty of Specops Deploy"
"There is a new Specops in town and this one is called v3.1. A minor point release? Yes. Significant updates worth covering? Very yes!"
Redmond Magazine
Score: 8.9 of 10
"Many companies have developed software deployment tools, but few have done it as simply as Special Operations Software. That simplicity is what makes Specops Deploy so attractive..."
"Microsoft should take a long hard look at this product..."
Desktop Engineer:
"Specops Deploy makes group policy deployment a practical reality in many situations where it was previously very labor intensive and lacked appropriate status reporting."
