SAN RAMON, CA, October 1, 2007 — Faronics is pleased to announce the release of Version
2.0 of the popular Deep Freeze Plug-in for LANDesk® Management Suite. This latest release offers
several performance enhancements, including the addition of new features such as support for
the LANDesk® Web Console, automatic application updating, and enhanced Deep Freeze status
reporting.
Deep Freeze enables administrators to protect a workstation’s operating system and software
without restricting user access. With every system restart, Deep Freeze resets the computer to
its original state—right down to the last byte. Computing environments are easier to manage,
and expensive computer assets are kept running at 100% capacity. The Deep Freeze Plug-in for
LANDesk® gives administrators the ability to activate scheduled tasks, manage computers with
multi-level user defined groups, and improve process updates while preserving and protecting the
productivity of PC and Mac workstations. The integration between Deep Freeze and LANDesk®
provides administrators with an efficient and central way to manage Deep Freeze tasks from within
the LANDesk® Console.
“We received a lot of great feedback from the members of Faronics Labs, Faronics’ customer-care
portal, and from our customers who participated in the beta program,” said Guillermo Tellez,
Faronics’ Deep Freeze Plug-in for LANDesk® Product Manager. “We were able to channel that
feedback into this new version, which is why it has so many new customer-centric features.”
“We’re pleased with the customer value our relationship with Faronics creates,” said Robert Naegle,
Vice President of Marketing for LANDesk®. “As a member of the LANDesk® Solution Alliance,
Faronics has demonstrated their commitment to developing and delivering software that makes
managing enterprise workstations easier.”
Version 2.0 of the Deep Freeze Plug-in for LANDesk® is available from www.faronics.com/landesk
for free. The plug-in supports LANDesk® Management Suite 8.7 SP3, Deep Freeze Enterprise 6.0
and higher, and Deep Freeze Mac 3.2 and higher. Mac users will require Mac OS X 10.4 or higher.
