Simplified software distribution migration with IDERI move

In the world of IT, change is the only constant factor. This also applies to software distribution systems, where migration is often unavoidable. This is where IDERI move comes into play – an innovative solution that makes the transition from DSM to other software distribution systems such as the following much easier.

What makes IDERI move so special?

IDERI move acts as an interpreter, not as a converter. This means that existing packages can be adopted directly. This approach makes it possible to significantly reduce the migration and testing effort, as no new scripts need to be written.

The success story of Ferag AG

An illustrative example of the effectiveness of IDERI move is the migration of over 800 packages at Ferag AG from DSM to Empirum. Alex Schwarz from Ferag AG reports that it was a “great thing” and confirms that the “move from DSM works perfectly and quickly“.

Four key advantages of IDERI move

1. no repackaging

The time and effort that would normally go into repackaging can be saved.

2. simple parcel pick-up

Existing DSM packages can be exported and imported into the new environment with just a few clicks.

3. preservation of functionality

Familiar DSM functionalities such as device/user separation, repair or reinstallation are retained.

4. no double maintenance

During migration, there is no need to package applications twice.

How much time and effort can you save?

On average, you need around 1-2 packages per day for repackaging. With 100 packages, this would mean that a migration could take 2.5 to 5 months. With IDERI move, the duration is reduced by over 90%!

What should you bear in mind during a DSM migration?

A migration project should be well planned in order to identify potential hurdles. IDERI move offers an analysis tool that helps to determine the number of DSM packets, command usage and effort estimation.

Conclusion

Migration from DSM to another system can be done quickly and efficiently with IDERI move, without the need for repackaging or duplication of work. With the promise of a significant reduction in effort, IDERI move is a robust tool for IT professionals who are facing a migration and want a smooth transition.
