Chapter 1. <strong>ImageUltra</strong> <strong>Builder</strong><br />
1<br />
IT departments are usually faced with the demanding task of building workstations for their<br />
end users. In addition, most business units have different requirements to perform their jobs.<br />
For an IT department to be successful, it must team with its users to identify what information,<br />
software and tools need to be loaded on a workstation.<br />
One of the most popular ways of distributing this information is through the use of images<br />
which contain the contents for a workstation. Through the use of images, corporations can<br />
ensure their PCs are consistently functional without having to load every machine individually.<br />
IT departments use images to control the versions of software and drivers used throughout a<br />
company.<br />
<strong>ImageUltra</strong> <strong>Builder</strong> is a unique tool that provides IT Departments with an easy-to-use<br />
interface which centralizes the creation, maintenance and deployment of all their images.<br />
The following sections will take you through how the modular approach of <strong>ImageUltra</strong><br />
Technology will help you manage all your corporate images within one unique interface. We<br />
will also discuss how <strong>ImageUltra</strong> <strong>Builder</strong> interacts with other image management tools such<br />
as Microsoft Sysprep and Symantec DeployCenter.<br />
