<br class="">
Very interesting. I've been watching for a long time to see if there would<br class="">
ever be a competing product with similar features to that of Deep Freeze.<br class="">
I've been surprised that I've never seen another product that works quite<br class="">
like it...not even any budding open source projects, which surprises me. I<br class="">
think Faronics has a patent on the technology, which may be why I've never<br class="">
seen a product that works in a similar way. And yet, now here's Drive<br class="">
Vaccine. I wonder what their angle is and how they don't run afoul of<br class="">
Faronics' patents. (I could be completely wrong about the patents and what<br class="">
they're for. I've not really looked into it...just saw some references to<br class="">
it once not too long ago and figured that explained the lack of competition<br class="">
in this space.)<br class="">
<br class="">
(If there aren't any legal restrictions, this would definitely be the<br class="">
perfect open source project, given all the libraries, schools, and<br class="">
corporations that benefit from DF!)<br class="">
<br class="">
Definitely worth taking a look at DV!<br class="">

Hello,<br class="">
<br class="">
Who is using Horizon DataSys Drive Vaccine<br class="">
<<a href="http://www.horizondatasys.com/en/products_and_solutions.aspx?ProductId=2#Features" class="">http://www.horizondatasys.com/en/products_and_solutions.aspx?ProductId=2#Features</a>> to<br class="">
maintain their public laptops? What are the issues you have with Drive<br class="">
Vaccine?<br class="">
<br class="">
We are currently experiencing issues with Faronics Deep Freeze<br class="">
<<a href="http://www.faronics.com/products/deep-freeze/" class="">http://www.faronics.com/products/deep-freeze/</a>> and Windows updates. I<br class="">
was wondering what experiences others have with Drive Vaccine. I now have<br class="">
tested Drive Vaccine, but have no reliable information about it's long term<br class="">
use.<br class="">

Thanks,<br class="">
