in general

  • the ability to implement group policy to force machines to use a WSUS server for updates
  • antivirus installation and updating
  • pushing out software such as Microsoft Office to the desktop (what other software have you all pushed out using group policy?) we don't have any software currently site licensed though so this is a bit of a tough sell-departments buy their own software
  • password consolidation
  • force password complexity
  • redirect folders (My Documents) to network storage for a department and do regular backups
  • remote assistance
  • roaming profiles- profiles stored on server so you can login from multiple workstations
  • easier printer access (listed in the directory)
  • easier file sharing between computers
