"I like a lot of the reporting capabilities and baseline configurations."
"Provides great insight into the functionalities of the data scope."
"The most valuable feature of SCCM is the application distribution."
"Software deployment and WSUS are most valuable."
"The solution doesn't require any maintenance from our end because it is a cloud-based solution and Microsoft takes care of everything."
"It lets you know what your infrastructure is like and what state you are in."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is its ability to deploy patches to nearly all applications."

"The solution can be quite expensive, compared to other options on the market."
"The tool needs to improve its visual system."
"Our company would prefer not rebooting computers while people are using them. There seems to be no strategy behind it."
"The solution can be improved by speeding up the synchronizing of the policies on the devices."
"It would be better if automation options were available. For example, in Nexthink or SysTrack, there is an analytical tool. Creating dashboards would be very easy if you implement the same thing in Microsoft. That report will be a daily cost to the customers and good revenue for our organization. The price also could be better. In the next release, we need to include some features like tables, dashboards, surveys, services, and metrics in the dashboard. Whatever we are implementing will be downloaded by a report. Apart from the report, we will telecast from the dashboard. It's very easy to compare, and it will be easy to telecast to the end-users."
"The solution is a bit heavy on the sources such as RAM or CPU and the software needs to be a bit lighter."
"Based on my experience with SCCM 2016, the main, big issue is not having a good user-friendly environment. It needs much better GUI."
"With Microsoft Premier Support, you get what you pay for. There's Third Tier Support that you pay for. If you pay for that, you get excellent support, and if you don't pay for that, then you get the less experienced staff."
"There's no way to say, "I want this maintenance window to be on the second Tuesday of the month." It's strict. This window is this and that's it. You can't fluctuate."
"Could do with some cosmetic improvements on the user interface."
