Eliminate Software Conflicts
Every time you distribute applications and patches you run the risk of creating software conflicts that crash other applications and disrupt systems across your environment. AdminStudio gives systems administrators everything needed to prepare conflict-free, reliable software packages for deployment.First, it gives you the ability to quickly convert applications into both Thinstall® and Citrix® virtual packages. Virtual packages prevent software conflicts by running in their own isolated environment.
Second, AdminStudio’s ConflictSolver lets you test your MSI packages and patches for conflicts against any application and operating system in your enterprise (including Windows Vista) before you deploy. Depending on the conflict, AdminStudio either instantly corrects it or helps you fix it according to your corporate standards.
ConflictSolver has a Process Assistant to guide you through the conflict detection and resolution process. Plus, the Web-based Job Manager helps speed up conflict testing by letting you schedule common tasks — such as package import, validation, and conflict resolution — to run automatically, day or night. No human intervention is required.
Finally, AdminStudio also has the Application Isolation Wizard that can automatically scan MSI packages to determine if they are fully isolated and using only local resources and DLLs. If there is a problem, the Application Isolation Wizard can partially or totally isolate an application before you deploy it, ensuring installed applications are unaffected by the rollout.
