Symantec Ghost Solution Suite

Symantec Ghost

Overall this is a really good solution for disk imaging and restoration.

Symantec Ghost Review

As an end user, Symantec Ghost Solution Suite was easy to use and simple. Although I wasn't involved in deployment, I had used the application almost every day to image new or old machines. From my perspective, it was easy and simple. That made it effective for new hires to quickly catch on as well.

I wasn't in love with it. I looked forward to our change over to another product.

Symantec Ghost Review

Ghost software

I have used the Ghost software for only the basics. I used the main software to create the boot discs or USB drives needed to boot a machine and auto-start the Ghost software. Once a computer is booted into Ghost, an complete image of the hard drive may be captured (by volume, by drive, can be spanned over multiple media devices if needed, etc). I often use Ghost to simply verify the integrity of a hard drive. When you boot into the ghost software, you can do a "disk check" which basically verifies that an image may be accurately acquired. If an image may be acquired, this tells me that the health of the hard drive is reasonable stable. Ghost software does far more than just this, but this is the primary function that I use it for.

Best cloning software

I have been using ghost for most of my career ..A+++

Symantec Ghost solution solutions never end

If you work in the Support department of the IT department, installing this operating system on the machine is problematic and no one can handle it quickly. But thanks to this application you can easily realize everything you dream, you can serialize the operating system to set up.

We have used it for automated system rollouts and its a cost and time saver

One person can setup 100 PCs at the same time in 10 minutes using Symantec Ghost!

In the past I worked in a university where classroom PCs needed to be refreshed after every course, that means wiping the drives clean, reinstalling the operating system, drivers, updates, applications, and configuring everything to be the same as the other PCs in the classroom. As you can imagine that process takes several hours to do just 1 PC but with Symantec Ghost I can create a baseline image in a few minutes and push that image to the PCs I want simultaneously and the whole process just takes about 10 minutes (your mileage may vary depending on your network speed, number of PCs, size of image, etc.).

Symantec Ghost Solution Suite provides several tools to manage the above tasks such as the Ghost Server, Ghost client boot media, Ghost Explorer to view and edit image files without having to rebuild them. Once you understand the concept of multicasting, the software is pretty straightforward to use: Create an image of your baseline PC, Create bootable CDs, discs, or USB sticks for your client PCs you want to image, start a Ghost multicast session on the Ghost server and give it the image file you want to push, boot the client PCs to the session you created and sit back and watch 10 or 100s of PCs get all their needed software in a few minutes.

Ghost is a timesaver

Symantec Ghost Solution Suite is well suited for larger environments. It helps to manage the mass of computers we use. I find Ghost most helpful with standard hardware model computers.

Symantec Ghost

We used Symantec Ghost on our computers we had at college both in the labs and throughout the public locations on campus. Using Ghost greatly simplified the setup and maintenance of public use computers. The suite made it fairly easy to update the various images for the different computers we maintained as well and allowed us to deploy images en' mass over the network. The initial setup of the system and server was a bit complicated, but once that portion was complete, using the suite was straightforward. For lab management, or public computers that need to be maintained regardless of who uses them, I would recommend looking into Symantec Ghost Suite.

Symantec Ghost is a great way to create standard image files.
