It's easy to overlook the manual work required by IT administrators and technicians to set up and configure many different PCs or servers in a way that is easy, consistent and secure.
However, for a diverse range of industries it's absolutely essential. An effective and rapid deployment process allows employees to simply focus on doing what they do best.
That's where Macrium Deployment Kit comes in.
Thanks to its portable application support, it allows you to create a "golden" image that can be easily deployed across an unlimited number of workstations and servers through a portable Deployment USB media.
How does the License work?
The Macrium Deployment USB media is created using Macrium Reflect (each Deployment Kit subscription includes a single Macrium Reflect Server edition), which is used to create the Deployment Kit USBs. Once created, the USBs can be used to perform an unlimited number of deployments by up to five technicians (concurrently).
Looking for more than a portable deployment kit? SiteDeploy offers a a more efficient, scaled and automated way to deploy Golden Images.
If you just need to backup and restore to individual machines check out our Technicians License.

How does the Macrium Deployment Kit work?
Macrium deployment is powered by sophisticated backup technology but it makes setting up workstations and servers at scale simple.
It works like this:
- Once you've purchased Macrium Deployment Kit, create the bootable rescue media by installing the software on a USB (this can be done by up to 5 technicians).
- Once you've done this you set up and image your "master" machine - this is what you then replicate across all your target workstations and servers.
- This image can then be saved to the USB devices set up with Macrium's bootable rescue media.
- Use your USB devices to restore your master image to as many machines as you like.
This video demonstrates how it's done in more detail.
What about workstation and server backup?
The Macrium Reflect backup engine is used to image a single master or golden image - it doesn't provide protection to the workstations or servers you set up. You can also use the Deployment Kit for ad hoc backups of workstations and servers (ie. not scheduled).
For scheduled backup protection across workstations or servers, you'll need to purchase standalone Macrium Reflect Workstation or Server licenses.
If you need centralized backup for Enterprise systems you can use Macrium SiteBackup.
