"Deploy Studios-Great for mass imaging of laptops"
5/5
What do you like best about DeployStudio?

It allows you to imagine a large amount of devices at once. As a technician we would set up the server, than go run around to classrooms and deploy the image all at once. You can add other software packages that will install with the image. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DeployStudio?

There is nothing I dislike it, but with the way macOS is going, there really is no need for imaging. They are becoming more and more like iOS devices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Unreliable DeployStudio Tool"
1.5/5
What do you like best about DeployStudio?

DeployStudio obstructs the management of Mac deployments. Its less user friendly interface makes it difficult to create and deploy system images not allowing us to save time. DeployStudio complicates our Mac deployments. Decreases productivity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DeployStudio?

The automated workflows are needed to guarantee an installation process and lacks the ability to simultaneously deploy to machines is a major disadvantage. Being unable to tailor workflows to devices and user needs is obstructive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Solid option for Education"
3.5/5
What do you like best about DeployStudio?

The simple setup and low overhead hardware requirements to host it. This made the platform a viable tool for use in education where budgets are restrictive for more mainstream solutions with high subscription costs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DeployStudio?

It requires technical knowledge to manage the hosts and connections. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Free and powerful - what’s not to like?"
4.5/5
What do you like best about DeployStudio?

Fantastic free software to image a range of platforms. My experience is from a Apple Mac background and I used DeployStudio for many years to image suites of Macs in an educational environment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DeployStudio?

Updates to the client and server sometimes caused issues and required new image sets creating.

The software is free however so I can't gripe too much. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great way for building and deploying images"
4/5
What do you like best about DeployStudio?

Ease of use- guides you pretty well and hard to screw things up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DeployStudio?

I don't know if they've kept up with the competition as our process has changed, so I haven't used the latest version, but I'm sure it's great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"DeployStudio - ultimate MDM for all your Mac devices."
4/5
What do you like best about DeployStudio?

DeployStudio is one of the easiest deployment platforms that I have used - both Microsoft-based or Apple Mac Based. It runs seamlessly and is the easiest way to deploy images to iMacs and MacBook fleets. The ability to also then deploy an application or applications is also another easy-to-use feature. Instead of spending large per device amounts of money, deployStudio is a third-party app that is not expensive.

When I first installed it onto an old Xserve, the installation was fast and very user friendly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DeployStudio?

I was very annoyed that Apple made it impossible to use DeployStudio on the later version of the Mac OS - this was incredibly annoying when the entire fleet across several locations was running so well with all users ver happy with the end result. If Deploy Studio could be used again with the new er OS's, that would be a dream come true. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"DeployStudio Best Mac Deployment"
4/5
What do you like best about DeployStudio?

It's a lot easier to deploy than you think. Available guides and tutorials are easily available. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DeployStudio?

As a freeware, it does not add new features but just making sure it works with the most current macOS. Not a fault, but I wish it could be a paid software so we can get more out of it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
