Media Contact: Binary Research International Licenses the Universal Imaging Utility Software to More Than 300,000 Federal Government Computers Top Agencies Including the U.S.D.A., U.S. Air Force and Joint Chiefs of Staff Leverage Imaging Software to Simplify Day-to-Day Systems Administration, Software Migrations and Disaster Recovery Planning MILWAUKEE, Wis., Jan. 28, 2008 - Binary Research International (BRI), the authority on software cloning and migration since 1997 and part of the company that created the industry-leading cloning solution now known as Symantec Ghost, today announced it issued licenses for the Universal Imaging Utility (UIU) to more than 300,000 computers in federal government agencies during 2007. Agencies using the UIU include the U.S. Department of Agriculture., the U.S. Army, the U.S. Air Force, and the Joint Chiefs of Staff. The UIU 3.5 supports Windows Vista, which will assist government agencies as they adopt the new technology by enabling IT professionals to deploy a single Vista Image created using any imaging solution to any hardware, regardless of make, model, processor or configuration. The UIU works by preparing the reference (or Master) PC, including installation of an extensive driver database, prior to executing imaging software. BRI and Big Bang LLC, creators of the UIU, will be showcasing the technology at the upcoming FOSE 2008 conference April 1-3 in Washington DC. "UIU saved my company thousands of man hours by allowing me to combine the 20 different Ghost Images we have into one," said Kevin Riley, Network Administrator, TRICARE Management Activity, Department of Defense. "It also helped make our network more secure knowing every single computer, regardless of hardware, is exactly the same." "The Universal Imaging Utility is a natural fit for government agencies as it streamlines rollouts and migrations that would normally take days of time by reducing the number of master Images needed to just one," said Jim Szopinski, Vice President, Binary Research International. "The UIU makes sense not only for daily maintenance and upgrades but is also an integral part of continuity of operations planning (COOP) as it provides a method of getting replacement PCs up and running in as little as 30 minutes." The UIU, introduced in 2004 by Big Bang LLC and distributed exclusively by Binary Research International, provides a solution for those who typically spend an unprofitable amount of company time maintaining, upgrading, cloning and deploying hundreds or thousands of computers within an organization. Designed to work with leading Windows hard drive cloning and data back-up software solutions such as Symantec Ghost, Altiris Migration Suite, Novell ZENworks, Acronis True Image and others, the UIU makes it possible for these programs to create a single hard disk copy or Image that will work with a wide range of computer platforms and configurations. Deploying this clean Image can be the fastest and best way to clean up computers compromised by viruses, spyware, bad drivers and bad data. Licensing for the UIU 3.5 is per-seat and is based on the number of computers receiving an Image that was prepared with the UIU. Pricing starts at $20.14 per-seat for up to 199 computers and goes down to $9.66 for 5,000 or more licenses.
