    • It provides a central dashboard where we can quickly patching assess needs and address any problems.
    • The client is relatively lightweight and doesn't impact user productivity.
    • I like that we have the control to have the covered software products auto-update or choose to manually push updates on our schedule

    Cons
    ManageEngine A Div of Zoho Corporation Pvt Ltd
    • An OS deployment needs to be able to handle Pre, While and Post actions. For example when using PXE to boot to WinPE I would like to be able to manage pre settings such as specific BIOS settings or make firmware upgrade and such.
    • In addition to above it would be great to trigger actions based on wmi queries such as Make and Model.
    • Scripting I was told is ongoing function to be released but I would like to instead of having the need to creat a script file such as a PS1 file and upload I would like the option to write the code directly in the UI for the specific template. This will make it easier to update.

    • As ManageEngine OS Deployer is currently just in testing mode it yet haven't had a impact on our business but the possibility to manage different Remote Offices is a great deal and will make deployment easier.

    • We don't have to worry that we have vulnerable un-patched third party applications on our workstations.
    • The products works off-network, so we don't have to worry about road warriors going unpatched
