Secure Management Over the Internet
LANDesk® Management Gateway is exclusive to LANDesk® solutions and gives you the ability to securely manage systems over the Internet —even users outside your corporate firewall and at geographically distributed sites. Now you can easily identify all the computer assets you have, how they’re configured and where they are on your network. All the gateway requires is an Internet connection—no dedicated leased line or expensive VPN is required.

Software License Monitoring
LANDesk® Management Suites lets you scan for known and unknown applications as well as define and track unknown applications. Stop users, even when they’re not connected to the network, from launching software with expired licences. Maintain a comprehensive look at software license use and easily respond to audits with extensive application usage, license compliance reporting, license reporting features and powerful query tools let you quickly analyze and understand your IT environment.

Ultraefficient Software Distribution Technologies
LANDesk® Management Suite includes a variety of features to make software distribution unbeatably efficient. LANDesk® Targeted Multicast™ technology minimizes bandwidth when distributing large packages to multiple users without dedicated hardware or router reconfigurations. LANDesk® Peer Download™ technology uses local bandwidth to access packages previously delivered to a subnet. Task-based distribution capabilities, policy-based configuration management and more are also available.

OS Deployment and Profile Migration
LANDesk® Management Suite lets you easily migrate users and their profiles to new operating systems. Automatically deploy applications and quickly provision “bare-metal” machines without dedicated servers on each subset, boot floppies or network reconfiguration. LANDesk® OS Deployment Wizard guides you through the entire OS deployment and migration process.

Remote Control and Problem Resolution
LANDesk® Management Suite includes the remote control and problem resolution capabilities you need to reduce costs and the demands on help desk resources, including LANDesk® Management Gateway, as well as improve performance, security and efficiency.

Inventory Management
LANDesk Management Suite includes all the inventory management capabilities of LANDesk® Inventory Manager to let you discover networked computing devices, automatically maintain detailed hardware and software inventories, gather and track custom data fields, monitor software usage to reduce licensing costs and maintain compliance, plan upgrades and maintenance and quickly respond to audits. And a unified asset repository brings it all together, letting you turn raw data into pure business intelligence.

Intel® Active Management Technology (AMT) Support
LANDesk® Management Suite supports Intel AMT technology to extend your management abilities when managing Intel AMT-based hardware assets with out-of-band discovery, remote healing regardless of the OS or system state and the ability to use redirect screen output and boot redirection to repair non-responsive systems.

Support for Desktops, Laptops, Mobile Devices and Multiple Platforms
LANDesk® Management Suite lets you take active control of all your computing platforms and demonstrate compliance to security and configuration standards with extensive platform support for Windows, Mac OS, Unix, Linux and handheld operating systems, such as Java and Palm OS.
