He communicates with only one person - apparently - SDMod here in this very thread. Shadow Defender? This company appears to be one person. You can find over 100 Faronics employees on LinkedIn.įaronics employs around 150-175 people in Vancouver or one of its six regional offices around the world.Īccording to Dun & Bradsheet they have revenues close to $18M a year.Įveryone at Faronics has a real name - you can call and talk to them. Great software.īetter yet, let’s look at the company vs Shadow Defender.įaronics has a headquarters you can walk into M-F 9-5 in downtown Vancouver. "Shadow Defender 'The way to a safe world'." I asked Tony to change it to 'The way to a safer world' and it has remained that way ever since which I am quite proud of.įaronics Deep Freeze is as solid as ever. I remember when Shadow Defender was in it's infancy that it used to say on the website, Also 'TURN YOUR IT STAFF INTO SUPERHEROES' which makes me cringe a bit and be embarrassed on behalf of the person that thought of that sort of tactic.
The website says headline things like 'Patented Reboot to Restore Technology Makes PCs Indestructible' which I think is going a bit too far. It used to be to (some extent) good at what it did but was sort of user unfriendly and seemed to be meant for and aimed toward business usage and mindset. They want some sort of yearly (or after a period of time) re-injection of funds from you. originally you could buy, keep and own the software for your pc/s but then they changed policy to make it rentware. I I think that that these days Deep Freeze might be rentware. I find that even these days that the website is not easy to navigate to get to basic information.there is a lot of 'spin' involved. People ran into problems when they needed to uninstall it, as, (if I remember correctly) it needed you to retain and be able to access the original setup file and use certain keyboard combinations before you could uninstall it and that wasn't apparent when you first installed it. I think that it was mainly meant for that sort of usage. At the end of the day the system admin can re-boot the whole lot for a fresh new day. it's the sort of software that you find in school or university labs where the students wreck the computer configurations each day, sometimes on purpose but mostly through lack of knowledge. I don't know about Deep Freeze currently and it's state of development but in the past it was 'rock solid' in terms of just going back clean after re-boot.
