Symantec Ghost, for many IT professionals, has been the imaging tool of choice for years. But like a true poltergeist, it has oftentimes overstayed its welcome, haunting systems managers with limited capabilities such as manual gold master build outs, limited console accessibility, and the need to allocate and maintain dedicated server resources to keep it running.

Today there is a far less scary option, using an appliance-based approach that can exorcise the limitations of the Ghost point solution, replacing them with automated capabilities that are easy-to-use, comprehensive and far more affordable. Recently, industry analysts Enterprise Management Associates (EMA) undertook a comprehensive comparison between Symantec Ghost and the KACE Systems Deployment appliance, and authored a white paper titled "KACE Systems Deployment Appliance vs. Symantec Ghost – Choosing an Enterprise Deployment Solution." It provides a head to head comparison of the two approaches, including costs, and proves enlightening reading.

So "who ya gonna call" when you need a more effective systems deployment solution? The KACE Systems Deployment appliance is the real Ghost Buster.
