Hello All,
I am working on Designing a new image for my Field People. I have a lot
of users that are spread all over the globe. Maybe one to two per country. They
work mostly out of their homes and don’t really go to any office at any point.
I also have a lot of 5 – 10 people sales offices with no support or servers
either. Currently as you can image supporting these people remotely is a
nightmare. Even buying and imaging a machine for them can take a lot of work
and time with multiple shipments.
I currently use Windows 7 as a default and use OSD and SCCM 2012 sp1 to image
all of my machines our current VPN solution is Microsoft Direct Access.
I have a dream that I want an image that I can be applied at a factory so
when the user receives there laptop they would just power on and it will work
for them automatically. If they ever have an issue they can reboot it like the
F5 key and be given an option to reimage the machine. From local hard drive
(saving Data and Custom settings) Really making these machines easy to repair
or restore and can be done by a user.
Any thoughts on any products that would help make this a reality. What’s
everyone doing currently in this scenario.
Thanks
Matt
