explanation for non-techies**
Imagine you are organizing a large conference, and you have a team of people responsible for setting up different booths. Each booth requires specific instructions on how to set up, but instead of giving each team member a long list of instructions to follow, you decide to give them a short script that tells them exactly what to do in a simple, clear way. This script ensures that everyone sets up their booth correctly and efficiently, without any confusion.
In the world of IT, Microsoft Intune is like the organizer of this conference, and the booths are the applications that need to be installed on company computers. Traditionally, installing these applications required using command line configurations, which could be complex and prone to errors. Now, with the introduction of script installers, you can use a PowerShell script to manage these installations. This is similar to giving your team a clear script for setting up their booths.
The PowerShell script acts as a set of precise instructions that can be customized for each application, ensuring that installations are done correctly and consistently across all devices. This approach provides more control and flexibility, much like how a well-written script helps your team set up their booths exactly as needed.
For organizations using Microsoft Intune, this means they can tailor the installation process to meet specific needs, just as you might customize the setup instructions for each booth at your conference. This customization is available across various environments, including government and defense sectors, ensuring that even highly regulated industries can benefit from this streamlined approach.
By using PowerShell scripts for app installations, businesses can ensure that their software is deployed smoothly and reliably, reducing the chances of errors and saving time for IT teams. This is akin to how a well-organized conference runs smoothly when everyone follows a clear and concise script.
