Install Software Remotely

Distributing a new piece of software across your network, be it to upgrade a certain common application,  or to apply a new service pack, patch or fix to your network or servers, can be a time consuming process.

By using a remote administration tool to install the software this time can be cut down dramatically, in both physical and man hours. Instead of requiring a team of IT administrators to distribute and install the software, one systems admin can install the software remotely.

Installing Software Remotely

Remote administration tools come with a number of features, including remote control abilities, file management and distribution, system recovery tools as well as energy saving tools. However, the ability to distribute, manage and install software remotely makes these tools invaluable to any IT department.

File Distribution Bots

These bots (as we call them) can deploy files, distribute them across your network, or even launch a specific application, and then delete it once its task has been completed. This allows you to install any application across any of your remotely accessible systems.

File Management Bots

The file management bots that come with your remote administration solution will allow you to:

  • Delete files
  • Delete folders
  • Delete temporary system files (to recover wasted space)
  • Send a file
  • Send out a selected file and overwrite it on the remote computers
  • Verify that certain files exist
  • Verify that certain folders exist
  • Compress certain files and folders (ZIP)

 

By doing these tasks remotely, your administrative call times are dramatically reduced, as well as the amount of times spent off-site or desk-side resolving issues.

Other Benefits

These bots are available as standard within the NTRadmin client from NTRglobal. NTRadmin also allows you to create your own bots to perform automated tasks, as well as offering pre-installed bots that:

  • Save energy
  • Increase/Maintain security
  • Clean up disk space on devices
  • Manage system recovery
  • Manage system administration

 

More details on these can be found on our article on Remote Server Control with NTRadmin.
