Ghost has new competition - ScripLogic Image Center

ScriptLogic is now beta testing Desktop Authority Image Center to capture, manage, customize and deploy images from one location. Ghost has been the defacto leader in this area with Aconis SnapDeploy hot on their heals and then there's Microsoft's Business Desktop Deployment 2007.

Update: DA Image Center turns out to be Acronis SnapDeploy under the hood. So the question is, "What's different?" Sadly, it appears there are no differences as the main problem with SnapDeploy is it is not possible to deploy remotely via the Management Agent. Until this issue is addressed Ghost wins hands down.
