    Easy to setup and train a colleague for use. PXE boot is great as well within the application.

    What we really like, is the patching part, os usefulle and easy to manage. Something that we don't use, is the VM deployment from Satellite, since we have only 8 VCD licences and a 30-nodes VMWare cluster, it was pretty hard to manage on which physical node the VMs should run .

    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.

    Red Hat
    It is part of our daily job, without it, we will have to manually maintain a server with repos, update the repos, it will ask us a lot of time to prepare a new set of repos, and so on. Even if it is a bit tricky to use, and for a newcomer, it needs some time, we still love to use the tool, and we keep it up to date. Curerntly using v6.19.2

    Not sure about this question, there a no other solutions that Satellites beside Foreman(free version without support) Are you talking about Red Hat in general ? If it is about RH, well, we like the support we have, all the tools available. We used to have a TAM, which as very interesting, but the new cost to have was way to high... so we deciced to let it go.

    ManageEngine A Div of Zoho Corporation Pvt Ltd
    • 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.

    Red Hat
    • We have been able to automate the update process to not require after-hours monitoring.
    • Centralizing updates has greatly reduced the overall time servers are down and processing their individual updates.
    • We are able to bring our own RPM packages in and stage them in the same deployment model as official Red Hat packages.
