Deployment
Custom Image Creation
To ensure a uniformed set of applications and settings across your fleet of Macs, Amsys can create a completely customised deployment image that will save you time when setting up new computers or re-installing existing ones.
Being able to deploy a correctly configured image to your workstations will ensure that you include all of your required applications, security polices and settings, in identical format to each machine, reducing the support burden on the organisation.
Deployment
Creating a deployable image is only half the battle. Choosing an appropriate deployment mechanism is equally important and can vary dramatically based on available hardware, and the organisations requirements.
Amsys will help you choose, install, configure and test the most suitable deployment solution for your environment, to ensure you get the best value for money possible.
Deployment Tools
Amsys have a range of deployment tools available to suit setups of all shapes and sizes. This can range from external USB or FireWire deployment, locally on the workstations to a full network deployment server system.
There are a number of deployment tools available for Mac OS X, ranging from simple, free applications to complex commercial offerings. Amsys will help you choose the most appropriate tool to ensure your new solution best meets your needs.
Patch Management
After you have deployed your Mac fleet and created a master deployment image, what about ongoing updates? With a wide range of programs installed on each machine, it is fair to say that there will be new updates released weekly (or perhaps even daily), that would require the attention of the I.T. administrator.
We can help you make the process of patch deployment and control a simple and quick task by ensuring you are equipped with the correct tools for the job.
Rollouts
If you are planning a large deployment of Macs or iOS devices, we can offer a wealth of experience and expert knowledge to ensure your project runs smoothly and, most importantly, avoids the common pitfalls made by many organisations.
Amsys have experience with rollouts of hundreds, and even thousands of workstations, often with directory services integration and custom applications included.
