"The most valuable and essential features of BigFix are all of them, they are needed when serving the purpose of the desktop operation framework. We cannot run operations without patching or without having an appropriate mechanism for deploying software, et cetera. The features all serve their purpose for our use case."
"What I like most is that it is a powerful solution."
"We are able to go from patching thousands of machines by twenty to thirty people to one person."
"Software distribution and patch management are the most valuable."
"The most valuable features of the solution are Windows patching and the hardware and software inventory."

"Detections could be improved."
"I haven't seen the use of AI in the solution."
"They can include the automation for the realtime updates. We have a network infrastructure with remote sites. Whenever they send updates, they are not automated. We have to go into the console and push those updates. I wish it was more automated. The update file is currently around 31 MB. It could be smaller."
"We've encountered challenges during API deployment, occasionally resulting in unstable environments."
"The console interface is not friendly, and requires training before using it in production."
"I'd like to see better integration, with the different applications within BigFix. Instead of sometimes feeling like four or five different applications, they need to be integrated a little better within themselves."
"I'm looking for them to make big web UI improvements."
"We would like to see a different license plan, e.g. to include features from lifecycle with Patch Management, as an example."
"To make it a ten they should improve the licensing. Second, if they could have one environment for everything it would be nice. For you to install compliance you need to install the server, and then you add the modules. For you to install inventory you install the server and then you add the modules. It's not easy to do. When I was doing it before I learned it, it was not straight forward."
"They need better integration."
"We need a much better multi-tenant option."
"The product is quite buggy and complicated to use."
"The solution’s initial setup is complex and technical support is not good enough."
