What is PCmover? 

PCmover is a migration utility that transfers applications, files and settings from one computer to another. It allows a user to select which applications, folders and file types to move to the new PC, and runs unattended. All the functionality and "personality" of your old PC will be set up on your new PC automatically.

How will PCmover save my organization time and money?

PCmover eliminates the laborious and expensive tasks that can cost  companies over $300 PER PC migrated, and has proven to save between 3-6 hours for every PC transfer.

What can I expect PCmover to do?

• Transfer entire applications like Microsoft Office, Adobe’s suite of products and many more from one PC to another.
• Transfer Excel spreadsheets, Word documents, pictures, folders and all necessary files.
• Migrate all personalized settings to enhance employee productivity.
• Reduce the need for costly IT support/ Help Desk support pre and post migration.
• Minimize employee downtime by executing every migration unattended.

Who uses PCmover?

PCmover is used by government, universities, software and hardware resellers, IT professionals, small businesses and a number of Fortune 500 companies. Any business of any size that needs to replace PCs will find PCmover invaluable.

What is the difference between PCmover and Microsoft's Easy Transfer?

• Unlike Windows Easy Transfer that can only transfer certain settings and documents, PCmover moves entire software applications and all documents, settings and folders from one computer to another. In February of 2007, PC World compared Windows Easy Transfer to PCmover and found that, “ PCmover has a polished, easy-to-use interface that has Windows Easy Transfer beat, hands down.”
• Windows Easy Transfer only works on the newest versions of XP (SP2) – which means that companies wanting to replace Windows 2000 with Windows XP would need PCmover as it is one of the only utilities that can migrate across operating systems as old as Windows '95 all the way up to XP and Vista.

Why PCmover?

Put simply, PCmover saves you time and money – and increases employee satisfaction.

With any organization, PC replacement or simply moving an employee to a different department can cost your business hundreds of dollars per new PC set up (a “migration”).

Research done by Gartner indicates that the cost to your organization can be over $300 for EVERY PC deployed. Consider these costly factors:

1. Wages paid to IT staff or consultants.
2. Downtime experienced by employees waiting for their new PC to be set up.
3. Cost of post set up support from internal Help Desks or consultants.
4. Lost productivity as they re-configure their PC settings for their preferences.

Today, organizations are using PCmover to migrate users from old PCs to new PCs – regardless of the operating systems. Research shows that PCmover’s ability to simplify the migration of programs (even custom written applications), files, and settings is guaranteed to save time and money.

• IT Labor Expenses
  PCmover uses a simple wizard-based interface that does not require prior IT experience. This means smaller organizations can set up new PCs without the direct help of IT staff.
  
  
• Downtime Expenses
  Since PCmover does most of the work unattended, many organizations deploy new PCs by leaving the software to run and returning later to a completed migration.
  
  
• Post Set-Up Costs
  PCmover is completely customizable, allowing IT staff and employees the ability to choose which applications, folders and even file types they want moved to the new PC.
  
  
• Personalizing for Productivity
  PCmover migrates all personalized settings as well as any unique or customized applications that existed on their old PC. From preferences for Word or Excel to Address Books to Internet favorites – even desktop backgrounds and wallpaper! – all are moved seamlessly and automatically to the new PC. The result is a more productive and happier employee. Click the “ Your Savings” tab to use the ROI Calculator and see for yourself how much money your organization could save using PCmover.

For IT Pros

Whether in an organization’s IT department or working as an IT consultant, PCmover is a "must-have" solution for your tool kit.

PCmover saves you time and increases end-user satisfaction, resulting in an improved bottom line and happier employees or customers. Using PCmover to migrate users from their old PC to their new PC is an easy decision.

When setting up a new PC, there are often many programs as well as hundreds of data files and customized settings that need to be moved from an old PC. The time it takes for this migrations can be substantial; the cost of not doing it right can be even greater.

PCmover automates most of the migration process, keeping you in control while freeing up your time to do something else:

• Application Transfer
  Instead of reinstalling each program manually (and having to find old CDs and serial numbers), PCmover automatically transfers all applications (or only the ones you choose) to the new PC - even custom applications that don't have an install CD.
  
  
• Settings Transfer
  Did you know there over 100,000 settings on a typical user’s PC? And most likely, many of these have been customized on the old PC – but you probably don’t know which ones. PCmover knows! And PCmover will move the entire “personality” of the old PC to the new PC.
  
  
• Folders & File Type Transfer
  If you don’t want all data transferred, you can select which folders and even file types to migrate.
  
  
• Faster & Efficient Deployments
  Since PCmover handles most of the move automatically, many IT professionals initiate the migration and then leave PCmover to run unattended, returning later to find the new PC set up with all the functionality and personality of the old PC.
  
  
• Increased Customer Satisfaction & Loyalty
  Recent case studies demonstrate that using PCmover results in significant cost savings and better time management for IT personnel. At AOS Web Com, an IT consulting firm, using PCmover created a higher level of customer loyalty and more profits.
