Editor's review
This software utility lets you install software in network remotely, the administrator does not need go to the machine physically.
Going to the machine physically to install or uninstall programs is quite a hassle. If the machines are distributed geographically, that adds to the problem, needing another administrator at the remote site. At a personal level, if you needed to access your home machine for anything that too could be a problem. This software tool will enable you to access remote machines and get the installation/ uninstallation done easily. It is possible to do installations on multiple machines and thus saving a lot of efforts for such frequent tasks like application management. The EMCO Remote Installer enables you to deploy installations in Windows Installer format. These are those MSI packages. The users on the machines being administered are not even aware that the administrator is trying maintenance of his/her machine.
This tool thus helps make application management quite hassle free. The utility detects not only the machines connected but also the applications available on each of them. Getting reports on these configurations is simple. The tool operates in domains and work groups without a problem. Additional features like installed applications discovery, changes tracking and reporting are some added benefits available with the tool. An intuitive interface helps managing things easy. The main part is tabbed. On one tab you can set scan conditions, the main tab is for displaying the computer configurations. The log page collects the alerts/events arising out of the scans done. This is a very good product. If there is a need, this could be a good option for you to consider.
