Key features

Flexible deployment

Choose between manual, automatic, user-initiated, standalone, and scheduled deployment to machines and servers running either Windows – with the option to insert Windows license key in the machine settings – or Linux.

High-speed dispatch

Rapidly deploy a single image to multiple machines via unicast or multicast from a centralized management console. Connect the machines to either LAN or WiFi networks.

Machine-specific configurations

Customize configurations and assign settings to individual machines. Monitor the status and pre-configure new devices identified by their MAC address.

Dissimilar hardware support

Provision the same image to dissimilar hardware, even simultaneously, with Acronis Universal Deploy technology. It saves you from configuring a new master system for each make of hardware you need to perform deployment to.

Flexible driver management

Acronis Snap Deploy will automatically match and install the right drivers for every device, ensuring optimal compatibility. Enjoy complete transparency and eliminate dependency issues with custom vendor-specific pre-built driver packs.

Deployment to live machines

Start deployment to individual live Windows machines without manually booting from the network or CD/DVD, with a one-click option to preserve the original machine name after deployment even when deploying multiple different devices from the same master image

Flexible licensing

Choose the license that fits your needs: per-deployment that enables a single successful deployment to a machine, per-machine for an unlimited number of deployments to a particular machine, or per-site for large installations

Prior to purchasing Snap Deploy, it would take us up to two hours to image a single PC, not to mention the time it takes to create a master image that is under 4GB. Using Acronis, it now takes just under one hour to image a PC, and we no longer have to worry about the master image size.

It would take over a month to fully deploy an average base before we invested in Acronis’ software. The team loves it because instead of having to adhere to a 300-page manual, they can deploy each workstation using instructions printed on just two sides of A4.
