Overall Satisfaction with PDQ Deploy
We use PDQ Deploy to roll out new software to end-users computers. This has been important since we have been working remote and it is harder to install new software. I also use PDQ Deploy for software updates that need to be installed on laptops across our organization. This way we can stay consistent on version of software.
- Push out new software
- Push out Updates to current software
- Push out patches and updates that we don't have other ways to push out
- Keep end-users updated with little involvement
- Sometimes users need to accept something on the computer depending on the update
- Users complain when they have to reboot after an update or to make the software version work correctly
- Integration with Inventory
- Being able to download updates
- Being able to push out updates
- Save time on doing updates
- Saves time and money on Deploying new software
We used group policies and scripting to push out software, PDQ deploy does this much faster and better then using group policies in microsoft.

Using PDQ Deploy
1 - I am our IT department, so it is important to
have a tool that is easy to use. We are also a small organization so price is a
big concern. Tools I use have to be cost effective otherwise I have to do
everything manually.
