Universal Imaging Utility 2.0 : the next evolution in disk imaging

US-based Binary Research International has announced the availability of the Universal Imaging Utility 2.0 (UIU), claimed to be the only solution for those needing to maintain, upgrade, clone and deploy hundreds or thousands of different computers within an enterprise environment. Loading in a clean hard drive Image can be the fastest and best way to clean up computers compromised by viruses, spyware, bad drivers, bad data, etc.

The UIU 2.0 was designed to work with leading hard drive cloning and data back-up solutions such as Symantec Ghost, Drive Image Pro and the Altiris Migration Suite. UIU 2.0 finally makes it possible for these programs to create a single hard disk copy or Image that will work with a wide range of platforms and configurations.

The UIU application is used immediately prior to creating a base Image file of a Windows XP or 2000 computer and provides the user with a single executable Image that can be deployed, via cloning software, to any Windows XP or 2000 computer, regardless of the manufacturer make, model or configuration set-up. Using UIU 2.0 to prepare the source PC greatly simplifies the cloning process and eliminates error messages and ‘blue screens’ on the target machines. 

Even though it is smaller in size than previous versions, the new UIU 2.0 application provides a greatly improved user interface that is much more intuitive and easy to use, integrated help files, online updating for new security patches and drivers, expanded peripheral and component support and overall better performance. 

Licensing for the UIU 2.0 is per-seat and is based on the number of computers that receive an Image that was prepared with UIU. Pricing starts at $US19.00 per-seat for up to 99 computers and goes down to $8.60 for 5,000 or more licenses.
