    Pros
    BMC Software Inc.
    • Easy to use
    • Easy to upgrade
    • Highly flexible without customization
    • Great community/support
    • Patch management provides the flexibility to deploy patches using a test to production methodology. It also allows us to customize restart actions which helps with compliance but eases disruption to the business.
    • Computer imaging and software deployment work together to improve speed to delivery.
    • Financial asset management is very useful providing all of the information we need to support our PC replacement process.
