Software deployment as easy as ABC
Automate deployment, patching, removal and inventory of software applications across your in-office and remote endpoints at scale. Install software ad-hoc to speed up new user onboarding, or en masse to roll out new software and execute software migration projects. Automated software deployment saves time you and your IT team can spend on more strategic initiatives.
Deploy commonly used applications
Ditch old-school, on-premises software repositories and insecure, community-maintained public repositories.
Deploy the most popular third-party applications from a cloud-based Software Repository, that hosts an ever-growing, up-to-date, and ready-to-deploy collection of applications, curated and tested by Action1’s security research team.
Deploy your custom applications
Upload your custom third-party or proprietary software packages to your private Software Repository within Action1, and roll them out to target workstations or servers, on-site or remote.
Patch all your software
Automatically deploy latest application updates, pre-tested by the Action1 security research team, and save the hassle of checking vendors’ websites for the latest versions.
Upload new versions of your custom applications and update them using a unified patching workflow.
Automate software inventory
Get a real-time inventory of your software to promptly identify and deploy missing applications and patches.
Make informed decisions about automating software management and deployment activities, and prove compliance.
Uninstall software remotely
Discover and remove unauthorized, unlicensed, or potentially harmful applications from servers and workstations to maintain compliance.
Force machines to reboot after removal, if required to finish the uninstallation process.
Policy-based deployment
Simplify new device onboarding and migration to new software by configuring policies to automatically install required applications to targeted groups of endpoints.
Minimize downtime by scheduling deployments during pre-set maintenance windows, and customizing reboot preferences.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a software deployment process?
Software deployment is the process that involves installing applications to multiple computers and making sure the latest updates are distributed in a timely fashion. This is a complicated and time-consuming task that gets even more complicated as more and more endpoints are disconnected from the corporate LAN. In fact, manual software deployment can quickly become almost impossible. Today, deployment software, such as Action1, is crucial for system administrators and IT managers.
What are IT software deployment best practices?
1. Have a strategy
Document your software deployment process with a structured checklist to ensure no steps are missed.
2. Create policies
To ensure a particular app is deployed across all workstations, create a policy to check for missing software and force installation for compliance.
3. Automate deployment processes
Configure reboot options and schedule software deployment for when end users are not using their endpoints to avoid disruptions and maximize efficiency.
What are the benefits of the Action1 software deployment tool?
