Dell Distributed Device Management services provide an integrated, hosted management solution for local and remote PCs. IT administrators can centrally track dispersed client assets, distribute software, manage patches and enforce IT policies for PCs located almost anywhere. Policy-based, automated management helps avoid the administrative burdens of manual management systems and provides bandwidth-gated, granular control of your distributed devices. The services can be deployed under multiple options — the PCs can be managed solely by you using the DDM platform, remotely by Dell or a combination that best fi ts your IT resources.
