Severn Trent Water use Macrium’s Deployment Kit
Loz Rimington, IS Field Support, describes how they have utilised Macrium’s Deployment Kit.
Severn Trent was formed in 1974 as a regional, state-owned water authority based in Birmingham and responsible for water management and supply, and waste water treatment and disposal in the rivers Severn and Trent.
It's personal…
Loz first found out about Macrium after he had trouble restoring Windows 8 on his personal Dell laptop and found his current provider wasn't cutting the mustard. A quick search through some online forums and he discovered that Macrium Reflect was highly thought of, so he downloaded the free trial.
A lifesaver
Severn Trent Water were having significant problems getting their current backup supplier to image or restore on their corporate Dell laptops, especially as the corporate laptops were all encrypted, so they gave Macrium a trial and were very impressed with the results.
Other features of interest have been the ability to automate and clone live machines. The team have found the interface superb and very easy to use.
Deployment Kit
Severn Trent Water will be using Macrium's new deployment kit in their organisation. This allows them to use the power of the Macrium Technician's License to create and deploy images in their enterprise. One single user can now image multiple servers and PCs.
