Laplink saves time for IT pros deploying new PCs or joining existing PCs to Azure Active Directory
Summary
Using PCmover for this process is a game changer, saving significant time and costs.” Azure Active Directory enables each user with a single sign-on and multi-factor authentication to help protect their business from 99.9 percent of cybersecurity attacks. Laplink has addressed a key point of friction compared to using USMT for those 250 million users: IT professionals can now leverage PCmover to transfer data between existing profiles on PCs moving from a local Active Directory to Azure Active Directory in addition to speeding up deployment of new PCs whether or not joined to Azure AD. Wim van Sprundel, the founder, noted that in addition to significant time savings achieved by FLEXAMIT, PCmover eliminates the risk of human error and produces a consistent outcome. When a profile is migrated, van Sprundel explained, the user becomes hyper-aware of any changes, such as with background images, file locations and more. “We’ve heard from many IT professionals that migrating local Azure Active Directory profiles is a major pain point in managing PCs, which are a significant asset and investment for their businesses,” said Thomas Koll, Laplink Software CEO.
