Feature Enhancements in Focus


Automate Warranty Check of Dell, HP and Toshiba Computers and Get Better Visibility

Desktop
Central will now automatically update the warranty details of the
computers from the vendor’s website. This automation is currently
included for Dell, HP and Toshiba computers and will be extended to
other vendor computers subsequently.

Clone a Deployed Configuration and Save Time

Consider a case
where you wish to redeploy a configuration for the failed targets or
deploy a configuration to a different set of computers without
disturbing the original configuration. You will have to redefine a
configuration which can be time-consuming. You can now save existing
configurations as new configurations and free yourself from doing to all
over again.
