Find out what your peers are saying about JAMF, Microsoft, Kandji and others in Mobile Device Management (MDM)."The most valuable features of the solution are patch management and software license management."
"One feature I like, that was especially valuable during the pandemic, is remote control. Remote control grants administrators and support personnel access to the laptops and PCs of employees (who might be working from home) in order to fix any issues that come up as and when they come up, even without having to wait for a support request."
"The most valuable features of the solution are its patching capabilities and the help it offers when it comes to use cases, like prompting for the reboot after a certain period of time."
"The support from BMC Client Management is very good."
"It's a scalable solution. We have deployed it for customers using 3000 nodes to those using 300,000 nodes."
"The inventory and patch management tools are very valuable."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the Patch Management."
"Everything is easily centralized and managed under this one product."
"It's a complete product that allows you to remote troubleshoot, has an inventory of systems."
"The initial setup process is good."
"Page management and ADA integrations are the most valuable features of ManageEngine Endpoint Central."
"Identification of gaps and filling the gaps with updates are most valuable. We are able to identify known updates or missing updates and then update."
"The stability is great."
"Has good functionality and is user-friendly."
"BMC Client Management supports only iOS devices. It would be good if they would support Android as well."
"The solution needs to add whitelisting because many customers request it."
"The on-premises version of BMC Client Management has powerful remote control functionality and decent compliance features, but these features both rely on the discovery tool in order to gain a complete set of insights about the endpoint's environment. Now, BMC's discovery solution depends on having an agent installed in each endpoint and sometimes the agent doesn't work properly, making it difficult to get an accurate understanding of the environment (including special topologies) even with BMC's discovery tool."
"BMC Client Management could improve in the area of integration."
"It would be good if BMC Client Management can perform vulnerability assessment scanning at the endpoint on its own and mitigate that. Then, we wouldn't have to rely on a third party VA tool. I would like to see this application move to being a web-based one."
"The solution does not offer the functionality of remote access to users."
"Improvement of the chats on the web communication through the WAN would be helpful."
"There is a slight delay in customer support, which is something that can be improved."
"In relation to ManageEngine Endpoint Central, ManageEngine NGAV seems to be completely useless right now."
"I would like to have the option to install the agent remotely."
"The tool's security can be better."
"We would like to see options for deploying Microsoft 365 accounts into Outlook. For now we only can use it to deploy exchange accounts. Also we would like to see an option do decline Windows 7 ESU patches in a bulk."
"Compared to the solution we use to manage our Mac products, this solution lacks the ability to create dynamic groups. We would like the ability, for example, for machines which have been upgraded to form part of a grouping based on this upgrade."
"The pricing could be a bit better."
