Snap Deploy

Ideal for rapid bare-metal initial deployments to a large number of
workstations and servers, and an effortless on-going deployment to
the same hardware, Acronis® Snap Deploy lets you provision hundreds
of systems as fast as you can provision one.

Fueled by over 100 patents, the Acronis AnyData Engine is the core suite
of technology that powers all Acronis new generation products enabling
them to capture, store, recover, control and access data.

Acronis Snap Deploy is able to redeploy the image to live Windows
Machines, eliminating need for manual booting of each individual system.
The product also manages machine-specific configurations including
machine names, IP addresses, domain membership and other settings.
In addition, as soon as you finish a deployment, Acronis Snap Deploy lets
you easily modify Windows settings.

Benefits:

• Rapidly re-deploy machines to refresh or change configuration
  in a class, lab or R&D or test environment.
• Reduce IT efforts with deployment to live machines – no more manual booting.
