@ambarishrh said in Centralized Imaging/OS Deployment:

Some of the features I liked on that is the base image is made from a virtual instance so that this can be deployed to any machine and a single image to maintain, the driver packs for almost every model etc. I am planning to evaluate this in detail next week when I am back in the office.

JB does this almost exclusively with Clonezilla. I've done it as well, so using a VM doesn't matter to the product.

My second choice would be MDT but again if SmartDeploy is taking the pain for spending a lot of time on the initial setup, which we don't have at the moment (lot of internal projects in the pipeline with tight deadlines)

You're trading money for time here. MDT makes you do all the leg work, you have to find and add the drivers yourself. SmartDeploy takes your money and does that work for you.
