Inventory
"Which version of Software X is installed on my computers, and how can I update it?"
This common query is precisely what Total Software Deployment (TSD) is designed to address. Managing tool updates has never been simpler! TSD scans your network computers and compiles a detailed report showing which program versions are installed on each machine. Updating outdated utilities is a breeze – just select the versions in the list and hit "Update".
Total Software Deployment's software repository accommodates both single-file and complex installers. This versatile storage is highly customizable, allowing you to modify basic properties like version numbers, checking files, or supported OS architecture. It also enables the implementation of common and product-specific deployment policies, determining which add-ons, updates, or hotfixes should accompany the main application.
TSD lets you view exactly what you need. Its flexible configuration options allow you to display various details about your system nodes. Find out if a computer is online, see its network name and IP address, check the Windows version it’s running, and decide how much information you want to display.
Total Software Deployment also offers efficient searching and filtering capabilities. These tools help you swiftly locate installed applications, define your deployment objectives, and set tasks and priorities, streamlining your network management process.
Use cases
Effortlessly create silent installation packages with just a few clicks using Total Software Deployment (TSD). The software intuitively identifies the type of installer and applies the appropriate command line string for remote app deployment tools without user intervention. This feature is particularly useful for deploying tools like MS Office® across your local network without any hassle.
Encountering installers that demand user input? Many products lack native support for automated deployment, but that's not an issue with Total Software Deployment. You can easily construct a macro for such installation packages, pre-recording all necessary interactions. This method allows you to bypass any unwanted steps without the need to re-record the entire process.
For particularly stubborn software packages, TSD offers a system snapshot feature. This is the ultimate solution for deploying products resistant to standard deployment methods.
Snapshot deployment operates by monitoring and recording changes made to files and Windows Registry settings during an application's installation. These changes are then extracted and transformed into a custom package, ready for remote deployment on other computers. As the most in-depth activation method available, it should be used with careful consideration.
Deployment
Efficiently create lists of packages for installation and establish your deployment objectives just once. With Total Software Deployment, you can deploy to multiple computers simultaneously with a single click. This tool goes beyond the limitations of built-in tools by supporting a variety of installer types, not just MSI packages, including those with limited or no remote installation support.
Initiate the activation and simply observe the process unfold. Total Software Deployment meticulously tracks each step, making it easy to spot any issues that arise during deployment. This software tool ensures that remote installations are non-intrusive, not bothering end-users with pop-up windows or dialogs, and not interrupting their ongoing tasks. With our program deployment tool, your remote software installations will not disturb the end users with windows or dialogs and won’t interrupt their workflow.
Centralized Software Storage in TSD is a key feature for streamlined software management across corporate networks. This versatile repository supports both single-file and complex installers, offering a highly configurable storage solution. Administrators can easily modify properties like version numbers, languages, or OS architectures, and implement both common and product-specific policies for add-ons, updates, or hotfixes.
More than just a repository, Centralized Software Storage is a strategic tool that centralizes all tool packages, simplifying distribution and updates. This approach not only saves time but also ensures consistency and reliability in the installation process, proving invaluable for network administrators. Total Software Deployment's centralized system significantly reduces the complexities of managing various packages, promoting an organized and efficient deployment strategy and enhancing the program experience in corporate settings.
Uninstallation
Total Software Deployment's remote uninstallation tool empowers network administrators to manage network programs efficiently. It can uninstall a program based on a list of detected software packages, giving administrators control over what remains or is removed from the network. The Quick Search function simplifies locating specific packages. Once unwanted software is identified, uninstalling it is just a few clicks away.
The newly introduced MSI uninstallation module enables system administrators to remotely uninstall MSI packages. This process is fully automated, eliminating the need for complex scripts or command-line inputs. The MSI packages are automatically identified and can be uninstalled from one or multiple network computers effortlessly. Notably, Total Software Deployment doesn't require the original MSI package for uninstallation. Future updates will expand the range of supported installer types.
Total Software Deployment excels in scanning the local area network to discover software installed on end-user computers, providing detailed information about it. It supports group deployment, maintenance, and uninstallation of utility packages across multiple system computers. Following successful deployment or remote program uninstallation, the tool can automatically rescan computers to keep the list of installed packages current.
