Profile Migrator 2.0 masters the migration of user settings and data on clients and servers

Cologne (ots) - sepago, inventors of the Citrix User Profile
Manager, make version 2.0 of their Profile Migrator software
available as freeware for unlimited evaluation under
www.profilemigrator.com. The new version extends the performance
spectrum of the universal enterprise solution for the migration of
profiles by the GUI controlled migration on clients: After
provisioning the project definition, user settings and data are
collected "unattended" from source systems and are written to newly
created profiles and directories on the target system.

This results in simultaneous a profile cleanup along with the
migration. After the migration, users can immediately continue to
work with their familiar settings on the new system. This ensures
business continuity and avoids additional effort for the user
helpdesk. Profile Migrator significantly reduces the cost of a
migration.

Windows 7 and Office 2010 out of the box

With the release of version 2.0, sepago also makes new ACS files
available free of charge. They permit the immediate and uncomplicated
migration of user settings for various standard applications. In a
single step, Profile Migrator masters not only a migration of the
operating system, e.g., from Windows XP to Windows 7, but also
updates of software versions, such as upgrades from Office XP, 2003
or 2007 to Office 2010.

The ACS technology developed by sepago for profile migration makes
it possible to migrate arbitrary application settings with Profile
Migrator. The required ACS files can be created with the "ACS
Builder" monitoring tool if the need arises and can be post-
processed with the "ACS Editor".

Developed for enterprise use

The ACS technology enables Profile Migrator to be deployed
flexibly, so that even homegrown programs and windows-based special
software can be migrated. The adaptability for use in enterprise
environments is underlined by further features. For example, scripts
can be executed before and after the migration and Profile Migrator
2.0 can be integrated into desktop management suites such as SCCM.

Like the first version, the new version of the sepago software
also supports all current migration scenarios. This also includes the
changeover of servers with a Windows Server 2003 operating system to
the latest version 2008 R2. In this context, Profile Migrator manages
the folder redirection that goes along with the introduction of 64
bit as well as a change in language versions.

Profile Migration as bridge to the Cloud

With Profile Migrator, cloud service providers import selected
user settings and data of their customers from physical desktops to
their own virtual desktops. Even user profiles on clients running,
e.g., on Windows XP, can be switched to Windows Server 2008 R2 and 64
bit technology in a single step. Profile Migrator is Citrix Ready and
part of the Citrix Desktop Transformation Model.
