aiden is a fully-automated software deployment, patch management, and compliance solution that enables our team to provide intelligent packaging-as-a-service in a highly-scalable manner. As an IT empowerment solution, aiden enables IT teams to cut down the time and resources it takes to maintain every Windows computer (server, desktop, laptop or Windows mobile) by 75% or more. Adding aiden to your arsenal is like employing a team of top-of-the-line packaging engineers at a fraction of the cost, increasing ROI, and making Windows devices safer from cyber-attacks in less time with greater consistency and reliability. Our intelligent packaging-as-a-service completely eliminates the need for mastering complex packaging software like Flexera.
