ThinkVantage Technologies (Aviable on Thinkpads and ThinkCentre PCs)

ThinkVantage Technologies is a set of system support utilities that IBM has provided with its desktop computer and laptop range, and also included with the Lenovo Group range since IBM sold their PC division to Lenovo in 2005.

In 2002 IBM heavily promoted these tools as part of its "Think" campaign, intended to instill confidence that IBM computers were easier to use and quicker to recover from disaster.

In 2004 IBM provided two of the utilities, Rescue and Recovery with Rapid Restore and IBM System Migration Assistant as separately available software for use on non-IBM systems.

Additional packages were added to the suite:
ThinkVantage Access Connections Manager
Client Security Solution
System Migration Assistant
ThinkVantage System Update
ImageUltra Builder
