Reduce scan times

Sometimes you need specific information from your network of computers. Scan profiles save you considerable time when you don’t need all of the details.

For example...

Let’s say you just deployed an application and you want PDQ Inventory to reflect the new install. Create a scan profile for Applications and Computer Details.

If I had to go back... I couldn’t do it. We would have to bring on several more people just to do what I do with PDQ.

Alternate solutions didn’t have the flexibility I was looking for. It would take me a week and a half to outfit a new lab previously. Now, with Deploy and Inventory, it takes me a couple hours.

PDQ saves me so much time. We literally would not get everything done in a reasonable amount of time without it.
