Remote installation of Sophos Safeguard

UM over 13 years ago

We are planning to do a remote rollout of Sophos SafeGuard to PCs. However, there are 2 issues:

1. The MSI packages are together around 60 to 70 MB

2. The total installation on each PC takes between 30 to 40 minutes

We are going to use group policy for the rollout.

Is there any way to do the remote rollout to PCs with minimum disruption to the users? Any practical suggestions would be welcome.

Can someone provide any clues? The installation time is really long and my client is not happy with the "disruption" that the installation is likely to cause the users.

Can you not use a /qn switch to provide a silent install???
Thanks

Another way to speed up the install could be to copy the installation packages first to the local disk and delete it afterwards.
