Overview: ZENworks Application Management
 The complete scope of ZENworks
is enormous, so this article only focuses on the application deployment features of ZENworks Desktop Management. ZENworks
Desktop Management is an application management
and
deployment
package that can really
add some kick to your network.
Think about the way you currently install applications onto workstations
throughout your company. If installing an application, or a program update
or patch means sitting down at each workstation, inserting
a CD, and running
a tedious
installation
process, ZENworks could be a real time saver. This is especially true for applications
that need frequent updates. So how does it work?
ZENworks allow you to create
centrally managed applications and store them on your NetWare server. When
you
create a ZENworks
application, you create a completely customizable application deployment system
for the application. The application can then be automatically distributed
to any or all of the workstations in your company without having to visit each
workstation individually.
So how does this save you time and money? It's simple. The application
can be built into a ZENworks application object once, and then deployed an infinite number of times with hardly any additional overhead. If you need to
make configuration changes or additions, you can modify the object and then have the changes automatically deployed next time the users launch the application. You never have to go to the workstation again. It cuts the time spent supporting applications on your workstations
to almost ZERO.
With ZENworks, you can Nearly eliminate the
support costs associated with application deployment and management.
Believe it or not, application management is only
a fraction of what ZENworks can do for your company!
