2 What s getting in the way? Application Rationalization, Remediation and Deployment effort tends to be underestimated. Not using enough self-service capabilities to enforce rationalization. No efficient way to map the right applications during OSD. Not using enough automation & network based deployments. Still relying on shipping USB drives and DVDs Inefficient OSD process designs Infrastructure issues, unhealthy clients. Increased risk of failure due to redundant DPs, BDPs and caching devices (e.g. WAAS)

3 Common pitfalls of a Manual Migration Organizations build a gigantic and monolithic deployment image that has all drivers and applications required for every possible configuration. Administrators have no capability to pick and choose which elements are most appropriate for each endpoint. Manual migrations continue to propagate non-standard configurations and organizations continue to incur more support and maintenance costs. The more manual steps performed, the greater the likelihood of introducing configuration mistakes due to human error. EMA (Enterprise Management Associates) recommends selecting an integrated suite that provides a single interface for achieving all migration steps. This will simplify the administrative steps and allow for the prompt identification of problems and an integrated platform for remediation.

4 Key Actions to Accelerate Your Migration 1. Application Rationalization & Mapping Applications are traditionally the most challenging area for customers 2. Automation Automating the traditional manual process through OSD provides huge time savings 3. Client Health Preparing for CM, network & application issues 4. Empower end-users to customize their deployment solution Enabling end user self service

7 Application Rationalization and Mapping Goal: user gets up and running with their apps Standardizing on latest version? Reduce license cost? Rationalize legacy apps as you go retire/ replace/ supersede as part of the migration Static and dynamic, usage-based mapping rules Legacy OS build Windows XP Adobe Photoshop CS5 1E Analytics AppClarity & Shopping New Windows 7 standard Used Rarely used Unused Adobe Photoshop CS6 ($500) Paint.NET (free) Do not install 1E 2012

8 Windows 7 Operating Deployments Challenges Data Transfer: 20GB+ / PC network cannot cope Desk side visits huge logistical challenge? Many more locations: Many servers/ site visits? Many Applications: rationalisation waste? Working day migration: end user disruption okay? Organizations have tried Dedicated teams, reallocation of internal resources or outsourcing to an SI PC refresh cycle to include new OS, only upgrading as PCs naturally reach end of life Client virtualization Automating part of the process, completing with desk side visits
