Cons
"It crashes our client's computers. Sometimes they get blue screens. It would be useful if SCSM could check the upgrades or patches before we implemented them to see if they are going to crash a client's system. Or, if it does install, and the client's system crashes, it would be good if the solution could revert back somehow."
"Mobile application integration would be an improvement."
"The patch management aspect of the solution should be improved. It's quite complicated and not user-friendly. If your systems are not patched properly, you are unable to pull reports."
"It's not too hard to compile stuff but it is hard to manage the solution. Even the design itself makes it difficult for management."
"Resources for understanding compliance and relative compliance need to be made available."
"Better integration with other services in Azure is needed because everything is moving from on-premises to the cloud, and as an integrator, we have to help our clients with the migration."
"They need more integration with open-source products."
"The user interface needs to be improved."
"Sometimes support is available according to their time slots and they can't fulfill everything I need them to. They give us a time slot but it's not always enough."
"I would like to have integrated support, and integration between the ticketing tool and the project management tool."
"Licensing can be complex and confusing."
"The price should be lower."
"For what it does, it's quite cheap."
