Extend management to Mac OS X. With Novell ZENworks 11 SP2 you can now use ZENworks software deployment, inventory, remote management, patch management and asset management for your Mac OS X 10.5 and higher devices. This means you can now manage these devices the same way you manage your existing Windows and Linux devices. Secure your data by using Novell ZENworks Full Disk Encryption. Integrated full-disk encryption means you can secure all of the data on your Windows laptops and desktops. You can further protect your data by requiring password or smartcard authentication to access data. You use the same Novell ZENworks Control Center you’re accustomed to for managing Novell ZENworks Full Disk Encryption. Deploy Windows 7 faster. A new high-performance New Technology File System (NTFS) imaging driver lets you image Windows 7 in as little as one-third the time it took with previous releases of ZENworks. Now you can deploy Windows 7 or migrate devices to Windows 7 faster than ever.

Users are constantly bringing more devices into and out of your network, giving your IT administrators new challenges almost daily. Now you can manage these endpoints with greater ease, more security and the control you need to ensure users access the data they need without putting that data at risk.

Embrace the power of location. Novell ZENworks 11 SP2 provides powerful location awareness that adds a whole new dimension to your end users’ experience. This means you can now make sure your users get the right resources from the right servers and on the right devices no matter where they are. Control change. Novell ZENworks 11 SP2 features application and policy change management. This means you can quickly make changes to applications or policies, test those changes on selected devices, and then deploy those changes to the rest of the organization. Because change control is rights based, you can even allow one administrator to make and test the changes and a second to approve and publish them. Secure your devices. Novell ZENworks 11 SP2 includes fully integrated endpoint security management so you can restrict Universal Serial Bus (USB) access, set up encrypted safe harbors, encrypt USB drives, enforce virtual private network (VPN) use and so on. When you use integrated endpoint security management in conjunction with ZENworks Full Disk Encryption, you get a comprehensive solution for securing your Windows endpoints. Integrate web-based management. Novell ZENworks 11 SP2 includes a common, web-based console for managing all the capabilities of the product. You can access the console from any Windows or Linux device located anyplace where it can access a website. You can also complete any common task using a device such as an iPad*, Mac or Android* tablet. Use what you know. Novell ZENworks 11 SP2 lets you leverage your existing environment and skills, allowing you to use Windows or Linux as a management server, Active Directory* or Novell eDirectory™, and Microsoft* SQL or Oracle* databases. You can save on licenses, maintenance and training by leveraging what you already have and know. Take advantage of powerful application management. Novell ZENworks Configuration Management is the most powerful application management product on the market today. Using ZENworks bundles you can deploy and configure any Windows, Linux or Mac application. ZENworks lets you push applications to users’ devices, or users can pull applications from a corporate store-like location. Get the solution that is better than ever. Novell ZENworks 11 SP2 continues to improve the quality and stability of the ZENworks product line. With hundreds of improvements to both quality and usability, Novell ZENworks 11 SP2 delivers the best ZENworks experience ever.
