We performed a comparison between Clarity CA and ManageEngine Endpoint Central based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Client Desktop Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."To me, the most valuable feature of Clarity CA is the timesheet. It's the only feature I use because I just support the tool, and I just enter time on it. Others use Clarity CA for other purposes, such as resource management, project management, scheduling, and financials. The tool also has a fairly simple integration with other systems, so at the moment, it's working fine. I also like that you can write your own code in Clarity CA, and you can make changes to it based on your needs."
"Desktop Central has improved these organizations and this is why it has been repeated multiple times at multiple organizations. If something works and is getting better it is worth repeating."
"What I like best about this product is that I can log on to every PC, very easily, and chat with the user via the chat feature."
"The initial setup process is good."
"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."
"What is great about the patch management solution, is that it patches OS, applications, browsers, plug-ins, and firmware updates."
"I like being able to image over the network. That's a nice feature that it has. Patch management is pretty decent on it as well."
"The mobile functionality is very easy."
"The setup is pretty simple."
"What could be improved in Clarity CA is its UI, but I know the Clarity team is working on a new UI, so I'm expecting its UI to get better. The software also has too many functions, so it would be good if the functions or features could be split up, rather than needing to buy the whole Clarity CA package, when you'll only use a few of its functions. This increases the cost of the software, so that's another area for improvement. How Clarity CA is marketed could also be improved."
"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."
"I really feel like asset explorer should be a component of desktop central. That would make it the ultimate desktop management tool. This would also simplify the asset management role since an agent is already being deployed and assets could be added at the same time."
"Documentation could improve so we don't need to create the support requests first."
"ManageEngine Desktop Central is very limited. When you scan your system, it will only recognize Microsoft Windows Defender and BitLocker."
"The product's remote access manager needs improvement."
"There are no dynamic changes on web pages and it's lacking visually."
"The tool's security can be better."
"The pricing is lower than other well-respected solutions in this category."
