  • Automate the migration process—By automating the key processes involved in a migration, Migration Suite can help to reduce IT efforts by three hours per PC.
  • Eliminate end-user downtime—Capturing and restoring end-users' personality settings reduces the average amount of downtime by four hours per user.
