                              Started on 0.32 in another company. It actually helped me get this job due the popularity of my imaging process.

                                          (Formerly Used Symantec Altiris Solution)

                                          Glad you moved to FOG?

                                          We realize that FOG is not quite as inclusive of a suit as Altiris. I can say its a hell of a lot cheaper and deploys many times faster. I use to administer an Altiris environment in a former life so I know the complexities involved. If you are looking to round out Altiris offerings, you could look into FOG + PDQ Deploy + PDQ Inventory and get pretty much what you had with Altiris for about $1000USD/year/IT Admin (all PDQ licensing spend) for an unlimited number of clients.

                                          Please help us build the FOG community with everyone involved. It's not just about coding - way more we need people to test things, update documentation and most importantly work on uniting the community of people enjoying and working on FOG!

                                            @george1421 We originally looked at FOG as a cost cutting measure but have found that we probably get more imaging done with less issues with it than my experience with Altiris. I have written a standalone PHP application that pulls data from the FOG database in order to inventory equipment, track power management, track user logins (by user), and track image aging and OS versions we have in the wild among other things. I use a batch file to collect and record software inventory records and a few other parameters and deploy it periodically via the snap-in system. I use FOG’s post image script to detect the machine and copy the appropriate drivers to the new install. In most instances imaging speed is tremendously better, usually in the 6-8gb range with about a 3 minute average for a 20gb image.

                                            We originally re-purposed a used Dell T-110 tower server as the master and Dell 780 desktops as the storage nodes in order to evaluate the system and ended up running on that for about 6 months of production use. We have since upgraded for hardware reliability which was an easy migration compared to any other migration I have been involved with.

                                            The only issue we have had that has not easily been solved either in house or on the forums is Multi-Cast but I believe that it is a network configuration issue on our end tied into VOIP operations, just haven’t had time to sit and follow the breadcrumbs.

                                            So… Yes, we have found FOG to meet all our needs and then some. What it doesn’t include we can easily add with a little creativity.
