Methods of distributing packages

Packages can be distributed using a network share, with automated tools, or manually.

Using a network share and batch file

Place all the packages on a network share such as \\servername\sharename and ensure users have read permission to the share.

For the installation and each update of IXIASOFT CCMS Desktop, update the folder and then have users click on a batch file that installs the software on their machines. If using a remote access solution, the system administrator follows this process on the servers.

Using an automated tool to push the application

A product such as Microsoft SCCM can be used to deploy applications automatically to users' machines.

For the installation and each update of CCMS Desktop, the person responsible for the deployment software captures the changes and pushes the application to users' machine.

Manual deployment

A zip file can be created for each package.

For the installation and each update of CCMS Desktop, you create a new zip file and users download and unzip the file to their machines. If you are using a remote access solution, a system administrator follows this process on the servers.
