Help! Winsuite and Vista

[phil_thebeans]

I have used this software (winsuite desktop management and security software)in its various guises for 5 years and enjoy the ease with which we are able to control multiple student desktops so I am a little peeved that the company who make it have, it seems no intention to produce a compatible version for use with Vista (as of a phone conversation today)

 

I know we can do all the same things with Group Policies and profiles etc but the iniatial setup is time consuming and needs to be tested thoroughly so if any one out there is using a similiar product to winsuite i would greatly appreciate your views and feedback.

 

And no we are not planning to move to Vista on our existing computers but any new purchases after the iniatial bedding in of Vista (bug fixes etc) would seem sensibly to use the latest OS (if suitably) especially when we intend to have replaced all curriculum computers within the next 3 years.

And using a third party tool like Winsuite means you do not have to test it?

Hmmm ....... interesting.......
