Manual software deployment is often seen as part of daily IT operations. Applications are installed, licenses assigned, updates managed. It works, but at a cost that is rarely made visible.
Behind the scenes, manual processes consume time, reduce flexibility and limit strategic progress across the institution.
Problem 1: IT teams are stuck in operational mode
Time-consuming chores:
- Packaging and deploying applications
- Applying urgent security patches
- Rolling back incompatible updates
- Handling installations and troubleshooting
- Managing activations and licenses
- Supporting educators with software issues
Problem 2: Infrastructure rigidity and license inefficiency
Common risks:
- Manual license assignment and removal
- Limited visibility into active users
- Licenses remain after students or staff leave
- Paying for inactive accounts
- Rigid, lab-based infrastructure
Manual systems simply don’t scale in modern digital ecosystems.
The solution: automated deployment
The Academic Software Deployment Platform:
- Centralises and automates distribution
- Provisions and withdraws licenses automatically
- Integrates directly with vendors
- Reduces operational pressure on IT
- Restores control, transparency and flexibility
Deployment becomes structured and scalable, not a recurring problem. If you would like to see how the Academic Software deployment platform can support your institution, we would be happy to demonstrate it. Contact us now!
