Find out what your peers are saying about ManageEngine, Broadcom, Quest Software and others in Client Desktop Management."ManageEngine Desktop Central has greatly improved our organization by utilizing Service Desk Plus to monitor and keep track of issues that our end users report to our Help Desk Department. We also have written in the ode of our company's software to notify Support if an end-user experience an issue and does not report it."
"Page management and ADA integrations are the most valuable features of ManageEngine Endpoint Central."
"What is great about the patch management solution, is that it patches OS, applications, browsers, plug-ins, and firmware updates."
"The reporting tool is very good."
"The stability is great."
"The solution is time-saving and resource-saving."

"The ability to deploy patches seamlessly is the solution's most valuable aspect. It allows us to not only deploy patches but to monitor the deployment of those patches."

"The tool's most valuable feature is performance."
"The solution's technical support is top-notch. Whenever I have a question, they get back to me immediately, which is probably one of the best features of the solution's technical support."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is centralized management."
"Computer imaging is powerful but breaks frequently. The reason for this breaking is not clear and requires heavy amounts of attention to keep operational. There is a lot of room for this tool to do more but the reliability of this process should be focused on first to ensure core competencies are being fixed before more features are added."
"I would like to have the option to install the agent remotely."
"Not many things are needed for improvement, everything seems to be great as it is. One thing that would be good to have would be the ability to add MDM to a tablet running Android 5.0 using the EMM Token Enrollment. If we wanted to add MDM to an older tablet, we just have to go the "long route" to get it added."
"The pricing is lower than other well-respected solutions in this category."
"We are looking for a complete solution for patch management with central management and the cloud which ManageEngine Endpoint Central does not provide."
"Its licensing should be improved."
"It is compatible with the systems such as Windows and Mac but not with Linux systems."
"ManageEngine could be improved by giving customers an option to perform certain actions proactively. Since I was a consultant, I worked on different products and some had advantages over ManageEngine. For example, proactive remediation—you want to proactively check something on the computers and run the script. In ManageEngine, you have the option to run the script, but Intune has the option to do so proactively. ManageEngine doesn't have this. You should have the option to act proactively, not just going ahead and fixing it once it's done. Proactive remediation should be a feature."
"The solution's initial setup is not straightforward, and we have to customize it with our relevant features."
"They should add better features for managing hardware."
"There are limitations to this solution when we are working with iOS, Apple laptops or desktops such as the Mac and iMac."
"ManageEngine Patch Manager Plus needs to improve speed."
"I find the user interface a little bit intimidating and not very appealing."
"The tool's support needs improvement."
"The agent can be a bit more intelligent."
"The solution should have a customer label where we can label those servers or include those servers for specific customers."
