Learn how to automate remote systems management with ManageSoft for cost-effective management of software and hardware in geographically dispersed offices. More than ever before, the enterprise lives and thrives around the world, in multiple locations, time zones, countries, and continents. But remote offices don't typically have full-service, on-site IT support. When a software application on a remote desktop, laptop, or server fails, it is time-consuming and expensive to send a technician to troubleshoot it, and shipping the computer back to the company's central IT department for even a simple a repair can waste days. This white paper describes how automating remote systems management with ManageSoft provides a single point of control for bandwidth-friendly, automated software deployment, IT asset tracking, license management, software usage metering, and Web-based reporting for remote Windows, Linux, and UNIX systems.
