Enhance your Lite Touch Installation experience and protocols, with this specialized Microsoft Deployment Toolkit extension that offers a GUI-based approach

When running high-volume deployment strategies within small to midsized organizations, the use of Lite Touch Installation (LTI) as a protocol, can provide efficiency through the use of Microsoft Deployment Toolkit (MDT) in order to perform the deployment via a network-based installation.
SuperADD was developed in order to offer users a specialized Microsoft Deployment Toolkit (MDT) extension, which will provide its functionality through a dedicated graphical user interface when running Lite Touch Installation (LTI) instances. The main purpose of SuperADD, is to allow users to either select or generate computer names and descriptions for the Active Directory.
In order to allow for the prevention of overwriting computer objects from parallel instances of LTI, the application creates the computer accounts immediately after users select the saving command.
Users must be aware that for a standard installation, .NET Framework must be included in the WinPE image and that the rules must be defined a-priory, in the CustomSettings.ini file. The developer included a detailed usage tutorial, here.
Last but not least, the application features a dual-tab interface, which will allow users to first determine the computer details, such as name and description, and then proceed with the actual directory lookup process.
