Reading, UK, February 22, 2010 – Thin client manufacturer IGEL Technology today announced the addition of an Asset Management solution to its Universal Management Suite (UMS) software. The solution allows system administrators to automatically scan for and discover all hardware information, licensed features and installed hot fixes and then to efficiently manage them. The latest IGEL Universal Management Suite also includes a time-saving firmware update tool and a support wizard.
The new asset and systems management tools are all standard features of the IGEL UMS, which is provided free with all IGEL Universal Desktop thin clients. In the latest release (3.05.100), IGEL has included a new firmware-update tool which allows missing updates to be quickly and reliably identified, downloaded, installed and managed - delivering a helpful, time-saving alternative to downloading updates directly from the IGEL website. What’s more, IGEL has also included a support wizard that gathers support-related log files together in a bundle that can then be distributed to systems support staff.
