“Despite previous issues with the product, Symantec Corp. on Monday released version 8.0 of its Ghost PC management software, which the company said will save IT administrators a load of time and bandwidth.
To do so, Ghost 8.0 features inventory and local cloning enhancements as well as a new hardware and software inventory capability. The offering also features a new central management console, that enables IT administrators to push out software images and activate different tasks from one location rather than having to manually install data on individual machines.
In addition, the software comes with what Symantec calls the client staging area, which reduces local network bandwidth usage via local back-up and recovery images, thereby eliminating the need to repeatedly push images over the network, the company said.”
