Workflow Management
Deploying PC-Doctor Factory typically requires integration within existing processes and workflows. While it is possible to launch the application and use its features via the GUI or CLI, there’s usually the need to automate the capturing of system information into a central repository. Doing this provides a consistent set of diagnostics for different device types, and the logic to make these various decision points based on Factory’s structured data output.
The Factory clients are fully scriptable, providing command-line control for all key features to allow both automation capabilities and the ability to integrate with your processes and workflows. Additionally, Factory offers the ability to integrate your own diagnostics to run alongside PC-Doctor diagnostics.

Data Management and Reporting

Each time the PC-Doctor Factory client is run, large amounts of important and beneficial data is generated. While this data can be saved in user-friendly formats like .html, the real power of Factory comes from its ability to provide well-structured data, which you can use to build out a database for collating data across devices. This allows the data to be queried and then converted into essential reports that can be used across an organization.
Building out the infrastructure necessary to store and process data, in addition to the time required to generate reports and gain actionable insights from this data, is time consuming and costly. At PC-Doctor, we have the expertise and infrastructure in place to manage your organization’s data across multiple locations and generate insightful reports that help drive actionable changes to your business. Additionally, we employ machine learning techniques to identify patterns and trends in your data set to provide proactive monitoring when atypical patterns appear.
