## Reviews

> **Paul** | *2 August 2024* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: System Center (now MECM) allows us to have machine compliance, and to keep our machines up to date
> 
> **Cons**: System Center (now MECM) is a complete product, training will be required in order to master the product and deployment
> 
> it is difficult to keep software up to date without a dedicated product person

### "An okay system that keeps my computer organized" — 4.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *25 November 2024* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like the visual icons, it makes it easy to find what I am looking for
> 
> **Cons**: I don't like the default settings. For example, the apps they choose to pin to start are ones I don't typically use. It would be nice if they could default by most used, rather than making me change the settings

### "System Center by Microsoft" — 5.0/5

> **Muhammad Adil** | *3 July 2021* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: One of the best network management system which help my organization to grow and manage the network problem. There are lots of built-in reports to monitor. Great security features and easy to define roles. Top of the cherry is remote control and management. If you are able to learn UI then it is very easy to manage all products.
> 
> **Cons**: There are some glitches while remote support. It is not a cheap one, products are expensive as compare to competitors. Bit slow as well in performance.
> 
> For big companies and organizations this is one of the best for deploying and managing. Incident management and deploying systems over the network is very easy to monitor. Must have for any enterprise organization which have hundreds of services to manage. Deployment of systems and laptops is very easy handled through it.

### "System Center allows for end-to-end device management  and provides a wealth of actionable data." — 4.0/5

> **Leonardo** | *10 April 2021* | Design | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: System Center gives us the ability to  consistently deploy and manage both servers and workstations, as well as continuously monitor key indicators for executive reporting, like patch compliance, software deployment and  inventory information, supporting risk and cost management decisions and empowering project teams to have a wealth of information about the environment at hand.
> 
> **Cons**: System Center is very much a suite of components and adoption, as well as operational running, requires expertise, however this is a small price to pay for the capability of its integration of functionality and the data/useful information it provides.
> 
> System Center offers any business, regardless of its size and complexity a platform to manage endpoints consistently. For me, where it really shines is in the consolidation of various operational processes and the wealth of underlying data you get, which can easily be turned in useful and actionable information for not only technology teams, but the business.

### "This is one of the best software and OS deployment systems out there" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *27 October 2019* | Automotive | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I love how easy this product is to use. It is very intuitive and doesn't require any unnecessary steps to create a beautiful working operating system image.
> 
> **Cons**: I wish there were more new features being added with the new versions.  There is a very active and very large UserVoice out there for this app and it seems like their team only works on 1 or 2 at a time and there are HUNDREDS of requests out there for changes/adds/etc/
> 
> Literally couldn't do my job without this application.
