If you want to experiment, make sure you use a drive imaging tool (I use Acronis or Symantec’s Ghost) to create a backup copy of your XP desktop first. But no matter how many times I tried, I couldn’t get a stable machine from the product, and so I can’t recommend Zinstall until they do some additional quality control. It is a neat trick, and I really wanted it to work. Zinstall works by taking the “windows-old” directory that the Windows 7 installer creates and uses it to rebuild your original XP desktop.

However, based on our MSP partners’ experience, saving 80% of the effort is usually more than worth it. The case studies you see here are “best case” examples. WinServ won’t be able to replace solid MSP work it just helps you get the job done much more efficiently. incompatible with the target OS), and post-migration tasks such as DNS adjustments and general server maintenance. You still need to handle initial server install and provisioning, and you still need to handle server roles (DC, AD, DNS, DHCP, IIS, Exchange) and incompatible applications (i.e. While it can save untold amounts of effort, it still requires a professional behind the wheel. Most of our MSP partners use it as part of their toolkit, rather than reselling it to the end-user. Its goal is simple – greatly reduce the amount of time and effort you spend on migrating your clients’ servers, and turn those migrations into profitable, high-margin jobs.
