What is ABC-Deploy?
ABC-Deploy is a policy-driven software deployment and inventory management tool designed for Windows networks. It automates the distribution of software and updates to assigned clients based on predefined rules, operating silently without requiring constant supervision from administrators or end-users. The tool supports various installer and scripting technologies, including .Msi, .Exe, .Bat, .Msp, .Reg, and .Vbs, and allows importing preconfigured tasks from its Package Store.
In addition to deployment, ABC-Deploy provides comprehensive inventory information by collecting software and hardware data in the background. This data is available in searchable views and can optionally be stored in an MS SQL database, helping administrators track installations and manage network assets efficiently. The PRO version is free for installations with up to 30 clients, making it accessible for smaller setups.
