Very good and easiest cloning tool ever

The best feature of this software is its ability to clone any kind of device without having to install all drivers or configure them manually. Also it has very easy interface that can be used by even a newbie user with no problems at all. Nothing really I dislike about this product but maybe if you are looking for something which will give you more options than others I would say go for it because there's nothing better in terms of price compared to what i have seen so far. Cloning devices…

Pros
  • Very Easy Interface,
  • Simplicity
  • Low cost pricing.
  • No need touse 3rd party tools like Virtual box etc
Cons
  • Can't do much customization when cloning
  • A bit slow

Great tool when paired w other tools

Simple to get up and running with - just install and you're good to go! Have done several small deployments at this stage (100s of desktops). A little tricky figuring out how to set up the DHCP / DNS / AD settings. The video tutorials are useful but not all that helpful if you need hands on assistance. I highly recommend Clondploy; it's cheap while also giving you the power you need. Need lightweight/fast deployment solution for a relatively quick project such as for new office workstations…

Pros
  • Easy setup
  • Very low cost.
  • Supports AWS OSS AMI creation via Terraform integration support through plugins like Jenkins
  • Packer plugin which helps deploying images directly from TravisCI without using other scripts or tools ecsfuckers_test1$5+
Cons
  • I don't really have any dislikes about this, everything is just fine

Efficient and effective migration tool

I liked that it allowed me to use a "ghost" image of my old server, which I could then deploy to my new server. There are some limitations in functionality (eg. not allowing me to configure more than one NIC on the ghost). They were better at keeping up with patches though. It's been over 8 months since we implemented this product - and they're still actively supporting us. We did a complete migration of our servers from older versions of windows to current versions. This enabled us to do…

Pros
  • Support when running into trouble shooting scenarios.
  • Documentation available.
  • Good for rolling out updates across many machines very quickly
Cons
  • Some difficulties
