The ANSA suite uses an agent on each system, which allows more control than agentless solutions. Deployment of the agents can be automated, and the entire process of creating and implementing power management policies is very straightforward and easy to do. It is also extremely flexible, with policies based on groups and the ability to set different policies for different kinds of systems. In short, admins should find all the options they need to turn PCs off and on according to users' schedules and system maintenance needs, thus saving the maximum amounts of power possible without inconveniencing users or requiring difficult scripting or compromises in security.
