We have condensed this down to 3 (and a half) simple steps. So using a combination of a website provided by Microsoft and some creative development from our scripting team, we were able to put together a solution so you can custom pick which office apps are deployed. Office is a large suite of tools and not everyone needs or wants all the programs that Office supplies. However, this time around you can create a custom XML file which allows you to say WHAT office apps get installed. It is a series of scripts that allows you to audit your installed versions of office on endpoints and also install / update the Office suite on new devices. So last week we announced our Office 365 Install and Audit script library. However, we quickly realized we could take this script one step further. But then we dove in deeper and set it up to install the software package so you could simply queue up an install of office from your Kaseya dashboard. Originally we wrote a script that would quickly give you a bird’s eye view of which versions of office were installed on your endpoints. So when a partner came to us asking about how to make the process of installing and keeping Office up to date we were happy to oblige. When provisioning a new machine, Office is often one of the first tools that is installed. Office is one of the most common software packages you will find in the business world.
