Overall Satisfaction with Microsoft System Center

We use System Center to manage patching all desktops, packaging software and deploying to all systems, centralized antivirus management and policy control, and remote system administration. We also use it for image building and deployment across our enterprise network with local endpoints for build and patch management speed.

Pros

  • Patch Management.
  • Image creation and deployment.
  • Software packaging and deployment.
  • Antivirus dat file management and deployment.

Cons

  • Modernize the interface.
  • Simplify everything it does and cross-connect all bits of the software so you can do tasks linearly.
  • Make the UI web based and get away from a client gui.
  • It has saved us hundreds of hours of patching, imaging, and remote support issues.
  • It has allowed us to keep current on MS products easily and scale our network quickly.
  • The aging ui interface does cause us to drag on being able to work faster to resolve issues and be flexible in helping users.
No matter our issues with the software, its ability to centrally manage systems, patch, image, and remote help users has far exceeded our timeliness to help staff. Its ability to keep current, enable us to keep the network secure, and standardize our end-user experience has saved us many hours, dollars, and time every day.
None. We are a Microsoft business, and this is THE tool for imaging, packaging, remote support, and antivirus management. Microsoft's tool is the best for managing its software, systems, and antivirus clients. I will say that Microsoft Intune, the cloud platform, can be used for those with heavy 365 usage, but for us, that does not meet our current company needs.

Do you think Microsoft System Center delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with Microsoft System Center's feature set?

Yes

Did Microsoft System Center live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of Microsoft System Center go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Microsoft System Center again?

Yes

For companies with more than 10 Windows devices and needing to standardize the OS, AV, access, share resources, and install software. SCCM is the way to go. This software is unnecessary if the business is all remote users and not in an office-type setting. There are cloud offerings or none to accomplish what a business needs.
