Automating Windows Vista migration:
Start implementing PC lifecycle management today

Vista migration. It's inevitable. And it's not a question of "if" you migrate—but "when" and "how" you migrate to keep your organization competitive.

Organizations should plan early to assess what they will need before, during, and after the Vista migration process. Whether you're conducting a homogeneous deployment, or rolling it out gradually as you refresh your PCs, you need the right tools—and a proven process to make the most of your investment.

WinINSTALL sets the stage

With careful planning—and application of the right technology—strategies implemented for effective operating system migration should be re-applied to various PC lifecycle management activities.

Since an automated OS migration is intertwined with many standard PC management tasks you can also reap the benefits across other everyday PC management tasks, such as PC restore, inventory assessment, automated software deployment, and migration of PC personality.

Not just for Vista migration

And the re-use of these processes is not limited to just Microsoft Vista. During a phased OS migration, PC operating environments are rarely homogenous, so the application of these tools should accommodate not only Microsoft Vista, but also Windows XP and Windows 2000.

In essence, adopting good PC lifecycle management practices today will significantly reduce day-to-day operational and support costs, while preparing your organization for a smooth and cost-effective migration to Vista.

New white paper explains Vista-readiness

Find out how implementing some of the most basic PC management processes in your environment today can help you prepare and plan for an effective Vista migration in our new white paper, "Achieving Vista Readiness - Strategic PC Lifecycle Management Gets You There". WinINSTALL^® provides you with the data and functionality you need to put in place to implement and automate a cost-effective Vista migration.
