Application Packaging Best Practices – Critical Steps Before Deployment via ZENworks.

The deployment of applications and patches is one of the most common – and important – functions of any IT department. Yet many IT teams fail to properly prepare their software packages for deployment, resulting in rollouts that crash mission-critical applications and drain IT resources. This session will cover the best practices for preparing reliable Windows software packages for enterprise deployment. From application packaging and customization to testing and preparation for distribution via ZENworks, this session will examine how successful IT departments ensure their software deploys smoothly and functions reliably. You will also learn ways to effectively manage and coordinate large, geographically dispersed packaging teams, as well as the best practices for efficiently testing patches before you deploy them. Tools that enable and support these best practices will be demonstrated.
