"Has good functionality and is user-friendly."
"ManageEngine Desktop Central has greatly improved our organization by utilizing Service Desk Plus to monitor and keep track of issues that our end users report to our Help Desk Department. We also have written in the ode of our company's software to notify Support if an end-user experience an issue and does not report it."

Also, we use configuration management to map logical hard drives to our users. Our users are very happy with how much ease IT can solve their problems."

"Lacks the ability to deploy more ways of management, managing devices and processing the policies."
"I expect Microsoft Intune to have more features in the cloud because there are two major functionalities that we need to be added. This is software metering and license management.

"More integration with monitoring tools is needed."
"It needs incorporation of Knox, ZeroTouch, etc."

"The solution is expensive."
"I really feel like asset explorer should be a component of desktop central. That would make it the ultimate desktop management tool. This would also simplify the asset management role since an agent is already being deployed and assets could be added at the same time."
"The reporting analytics could improve in ManageEngine Desktop Central. However, there are some third-party add-ins or modules you can purchase to do reporting analytics."
"The solution lacks some configuration."
"The reports provided by the product are an area of concern where improvements are required. The visibility provided by the reports is not very attractive."
"Computer imaging is powerful but breaks frequently. The reason for this breaking is not clear and requires heavy amounts of attention to keep operational. There is a lot of room for this tool to do more but the reliability of this process should be focused on first to ensure core competencies are being fixed before more features are added."
"It is compatible with the systems such as Windows and Mac but not with Linux systems."
