Hello,

In a project to improve our use of WAPT, I need some information. :D

1) The recommended hardware configuration for the WAPT 'Free' and 'Enterprise' servers.

2) A comparison of WAPT Free vs. Enterprise vs. MDT (Microsoft Deployment Toolkit) ((my manager thinks he can replace WAPT with MDT; I would like to prove him wrong with undeniable advantages.))

3) A price range for a company wishing to upgrade to the 'Enterprise' version. We currently have around 450 machines on WAPT. Only if the Enterprise advantages are justified. :)

Thank you in advance! I'm posting this on the forum primarily because I believe this information deserves to be public. :)

It's a shame because I don't yet have Disney and the other major companies as declared clients; they'll come. Currently, the biggest adopters are hospitals in France, with GDPR coming into effect.

Otherwise, we have other Enterprise version clients, even more useful for your lives and the lives of your loved ones. I'll tell you about them if you call us, if I can verify your identity and the authenticity of your request, and if necessary.

Otherwise,

https://www.wapt.fr/wapt-1.5/Enterprise ... enterprise

explains the difference between the Community and Enterprise versions of WAPT quite well.

MDT is something else entirely, which, to me, is more like Clonezilla or Fog, something that comes ahead of a software update management tool that you would use for several years after MDT. MDT is a one-time thing; WAPT is every day, or almost.
