Cons
"The price is an area that should be addressed because the price is high.""There were a lot of scalability issues that we initially faced. Whenever I tried to deploy 100-200 endpoints, it became a huge challenge. We had to actually start using other tools like Tivoli Endpoint Management in order to patch the issues.""The tool's UI needs to be improved. It needs to have better administration features in future releases."

"The solution has really complex code, you have to understand the Ruby language. However, once you know the code then you can move ahead without any problems.""At the beginning the initial setup was kind of complex.""There's a lot of scope for enhancement on the DevSecOps side. They should definitely include features for compliance, for both the Linux and Windows side of the devices, as well as for network devices. Compliance is something they need to work on.""Puppet Enterprise should improve the general extensibility for places where they can't install it.""Puppet Enterprise is more complex and difficult to configure.""We would like Puppet to add more integration for applications.""It's a bit of a pain point to make sure that everything works once we've upgraded it because Puppet has been evolving pretty fast."
