"The stability has been good."
"The user interface is easy to maintain once it is setup."
"The solution is secure."
"There is plenty of features that make the solution work very well."
"The signature update is done securely."
"The main feature of this solution is it is easy to use."
"This product made the job easy to do without having to go put hands on the machines."
"The ability to build scripts right on the deployment center itself, as well as building groups that take those scripts/task chains has been absolutely invaluable and one of the most important parts of my whole environment."
"We have our KACE agent deployed on all of our workstations and servers, and it provides us with reports on the hardware and software inventory for those."
"Using this solution saves us lots of time, especially when it comes to performing updates."
"The information available via KACE is up to date, critical to our normal operations, and has become the go-to tool of our IT teams for extended support."
"I am impressed by the service desk ticketing and asset management."
"With KACE, we were able to have a simplification of the software deployment management with more granularity and flexibility."
"The Systems Deployment Appliance is magical when it comes to automating deployment... Not only can we have multiple images, specific to end-users' uses, but we have a plethora of post-installation tasks to install or configure the system, tasks that can be re-used for each system. You just have one basic base image, and then you use the post-install tasks to customize everything else. It is amazing."
"Reaching their support team can be difficult."
"We would like to know where attacks are coming from."
"We are having some troubles because some American companies we work with don't want to work with Kaspersky."
"The licensing fees could be reduced."
"They can improve the zero-day exploit to be more effective."
"The initial setup is complex."
"I'd like to see them improve encryption and remote management in the future. Kaspersky could also improve its scanning technology. Other solutions have adopted machine learning and deep learning, but Kaspersky still uses signature-based scanning."
"The performance level could be better."
"I would like them to implement VBScript language in KACE Systems Management. Currently, we can only use PowerShell."
"The customization of the interface needs improvement for things like end user tickets. While the functionality is good, some of that UI stuff does need improvement."
"My biggest complaint is that almost every time they send out a new version, it fixes something and breaks another. Something that wasn't working in the last version now works, but something else stops; or they'll remove some dashboard that I really found to be nice and replace it with something totally different that I could care less about."
"The problem is that it's harder to directly emulate a lot of the stuff that the group policies do, using the KACE solution. With regular group policies, you just specify the various settings you want to change on the workstations, and then you specify the workstations and—while it's kind of an ugly mess—it does it. Whereas on KACE, you really have to know what you're doing with scripting to effectively script those exact same changes."
"I would like for there to be improvement when it comes to Microsoft and Windows updates. It has the ability to do it but the control of it is not there like I have in the Windows Server Update Services. The way KACE does it is still very granular. You don't really see the process like it is in the Windows Server Update Services. I think that would be one of the biggest things that I would like to see KACE really put some work into and really make that a big enhancement."
"I think it should have the ability to have the applications automatically update. It would be really helpful if this would override what the user might choose to do."
"Scalability is my primary concern right now."
"We had issues with the tool's support. We are a Dutch firm and everything has to be in Dutch. We were not able to do the alerts. You were required to tweak them a lot to get them in the language that you preferred. The solution's support depended on the person that you got online. Sometimes, the response was fast and other times you needed to wait a long time. The support also depended on the levels of support that you had requested."
