"The solution has great potential and leaves the user with almost limitless possibilities. It is truly a product with a million uses."

"I am absolutely happy with its stability and performance. It is a stable product."
"Scalefusion is easy to use, and they have a broad knowledge base, so you can quickly find answers if you're unsure how to do something. The articles on the knowledge base are well-written, with clear steps on what to do for a specific scenario. That part is well documented."
"The main problem with WSUS is that the management console doesn't allow you to do a lot of operations. It's actually quite a primitive console, and has been since day one. In order to be more effective, you need to use another tool from Microsoft that can take advantage of WSUS and also offer you the extra features you need."
"Because you have to pay for the product and there may be other good free solutions, this may not be the best choice for a cost-minded organization."
"I would like to see support for other operating systems such as Linux."
"Could be improved with additional features such as an update alarm."
"We have some problems when we update the servers."
"Microsoft Windows Server Update Services could improve the ease of use."
"The only complex part was the solution’s tricky setup phase."
"Job management and control is an area that is in need of improvement."
"It could be easier to put devices on the blocklist. I would like the ability to block a device with a click of a button. Currently, we have to sift through different groups to block a device. It would be nice if Scalefusion allowed me to block without moving the device to a different profile. Another helpful feature they could add is the ability to migrate from one MDM to another. I'd also appreciate more extensive cloud storage. They give you 1 GB by default, but sometimes that's not enough."
