How to deploy software with Optanik

Create an Optanik software package

A package can be an installer file, a PowerShell script or an SSH script. Drop in an MSI, EXE, MSIX, PKG, DMG, DEB or RPM and the upload starts right away.

• Detect as is the app name Optanik looks for, so it knows which computers already have it.
• Silent arguments go here if the installer needs them.
• Pick groups or single computers.

Deploy only where the app is missing

Create, scan and deploy checks who already has the app, then installs it only where it's missing. Or save the package and deploy it later.

Keep software installed with Optanik

Open a package to manage it. With auto-install on, new computers, and anything that joins an assigned group, get it automatically. Agents check for missing software every fifteen minutes, and failed installs retry on their own. You can watch every computer's progress live.

Update or check an app across the fleet

• Scan installed checks who has the app.
• Deploy silently pushes it out.
• Replace installer swaps in a new version.

To find computers running an old version, open Reports → Software Inventory and click the app, for example Chrome below a certain release.
