Overall Satisfaction with ManageEngine Endpoint Central

We use ManageEngine Endpoint Central for patching, inventory tracking, and remote IT Support. It makes it so that all of our workstations are up to date, we can track our hardware lifecycles and ensure that issues our users have are promptly remediated. We also use the OS deployer feature to maintain and deploy custom Windows images to new devices on our network.

Pros

  • Windows OS Patching
  • Hardware & Software Inventory details
  • Custom configuration deployment

Cons

  • When patching fails it does not always provide a clear answer as to why
  • The layout could be more intuative/seamless
  • The agent does not always auto update correctly on workstations
  • Consistent and reliable patch reporting to our BOD
  • Provided the ability to deploy all security and monitoring solutions at scale
Once you learned the interface it gets a lot easier to operate, but learning it from scratch, especially if it is being deployed for the first time comes with a steep learning curve. It is also hard to find all the automation you set up as it gets hidden in several different menus that you need to re-find for changes to automated notifications etc
Dollar for dollar, ManageEngine seems to be the most bang for your buck self-hosted solution. NinjaOne is cloud deployment only which can really add up over time, and KACE while better for scripting and asset management charges a premium for all of the extra modules that are already included in the ManageEngine Solution. Spiceworks is a great tool for small business but does not scale well for larger deployments

Do you think ManageEngine Endpoint Central delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Did ManageEngine Endpoint Central live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of ManageEngine Endpoint Central go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy ManageEngine Endpoint Central again?

Yes

ManageEngine Endpoint Central is great for automated patch management, remote workforce support, and software deployment at scale. It is not so well suited to small businesses with less that 25-50 managed workstations for the cost. It also does not offer deep MDM for companies with a BYOD and a lot of mobile apps.
