Symantec Ghost Solution Suite

Symantec Ghost

주석: Overall this is a really good solution for disk imaging and restoration.

장점:

This is a real-time server, this can do os/disk imaging and restoration really fast. disk to disk clone is also really good and this really helps full if you are doing large-scale disk cloning. currently I'm using this solution to take my company PC backups.

단점:

No failures/troubles still got using this application.

Symantec Ghost Review

주석: As an end user, Symantec Ghost Solution Suite was easy to use and simple. Although I wasn't involved in deployment, I had used the application almost every day to image new or old machines. From my perspective, it was easy and simple. That made it effective for new hires to quickly catch on as well.

장점:

Very easy to use from an end user perspective Simple interface that allows for a lot of functionality

단점:

Our deployment and management team seemed to have trouble with upgrades. However I cannot speak on behalf of them as I was not involved on that project. Updates took a while

Clone and Go - Perfect

주석: I wasn't in love with it. I looked forward to our change over to another product.

장점:

If you are looking for a product that can clone a machine and then put that image back down on a plethora of other machines this works great. But, if you want customization this isn't for you.

단점:

It doesn't allow for a custom deployment task sequence. (At least the version we were using didn't.) If there were things that required to be installed on a per machine basis we had to either do those by hand after it finished cloning or we had to use another deployment tool after the fact to distribute the software/customizations to the machines

A backup solution suite

장점:

Symantec Ghost allows you to create system images through guided wizards, that greatly speeds up the backup process, and the deploying process as well

단점:

I remember using a version (not the last one though as I recently switched to another solution) and it caused some compatibility problems on my machines, and it also appeared quite a heavy software to me

For prepare many PCs in little time with low personal this software is a winner

장점:

I use Ghost since winXP, in my lab have 5 PCs identical and each time that begin to malfunction only backup data and put the image store. Very easy to manage and use, many and variate options.

단점:

I don't have problems with my few PCs, no compatibility inconsistencies , for now. A little problems will arise if you no have knowledge about configuration of your LAN.
