SmartDeploy vs. Acronis Snap Deploy

Acronis Snap Deploy
Acronis Snap Deploy can deploy to any machine — but only by loading your machine with dozens of drivers and hoping Windows chooses the right one. You’ll have to manually gather drivers for each machine — and when you run into snags, Acronis customer support isn’t much help.
SmartDeploy
SmartDeploy uses custom driver packs to seamlessly deploy a single reference image to any machine, whether on-site or remote. And with strong customer support, patch management, and driver updates, SmartDeploy keeps your machines secure and up to date.

How it works
Set up, update, and manage endpoints with greater flexibility and ease. Flexible layers enable you to manage the OS, applications, drivers, and user data independently from each other rather than baking everything into a locked image.
