"SCCM is a stable solution."
"I have found the solution to be scalable. We have around 50,000 users using the solution."
"The solution is stable."
"The technical support is good."
"It is easy to install, and quick to deploy."
"The solution is highly scalable."
"It's helped us solve problems surrounding patching, installing, and reporting different patches, etc., on the virtual machines."
"It does the job and meets our needs. With everybody working remotely these days, we are using this solution to deploy everything. The deployment of PCs is easy."
"The installation is straightforward."
"The feature that I really enjoy is the ability to script changes across all of your devices."
"It's perfect for network configuration management. It's easy to use."
"The features we find most valuable is the configuration backup automation, the configuration compliance, the security vulnerability detection and upgrading devices."
"It allows us to manage backups in big companies. It is also useful in managing the configuration changes."
"It would be nice to have everything in one place. Now they have Intune for the desktops and SCCM to handle their servers."
"In spite of us being a premier customer we find the support unsatisfactory."
"The database should be made to be more stable and robust, but not so much the configuration."
"The analysis is something that can be integrated. Their report analysis can be improved a little bit due to the fact that most of the time complaints policies are saved by the admins. It's something that we need to look into and search for."
"It is a bit of an old and outdated product."
"Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager can improve by allowing us to schedule the scripts, we don't have a script scheduling option and have to do it manually."
"I'm looking for a single solution for all discovery needs. It fulfills about 40% of the requirements, and I'd like to see the other 60% so that I don't have to keep doing this."
"It would be better if reporting were more user-friendly. I would like to see an upgrade in the reporting structure in the next release. At the moment, you have to use an SQL query or configure it to pull reports through the graphical user interface. Their updates could be more regular. I think Mircosoft updates it every six months. They are also moving many things to Intune, and Microsoft decided to move the deployment solution there. I think SCCM is getting old, and Intune is new."
"For each device, when you open the network performance monitor, it will give you all of the information about the device, but many of the natural configuration management features are not on that page."
"Its whole architecture is a bit traditional. They can change the architecture to make it more modern and multi-tenant. Currently, we can do multi-tenancy, but we need to buy another product. Its look and feel can be improved. They can also put in more effort into building the THWACK community and use the information about various customer issues and requests to build the new releases."
"It would be great if they include a network service manager, network performance manager, or a privileged assessment in the next release."
"The solution could improve by being more secure."
"The Network Configuration Manager needs to improve the access control list compliance."
