Rating: 9 out of 10
IncentivizedUse Cases and Deployment Scope
We use baramundi Management Suite for Update Management, Compliance, and device Control (Remote Support and Configuration). It is the central part of our software management but is also used to have an overview of the hardware and devices in use. The only problems appear if the software does not support silent install or similar tech, because it is difficult to deploy it with scripts and gets very complex.
Pros
- Software Deployment
- Compliance Scans
- Remote Support
- Installation of new computers
Cons
- Scripting
- Recognition of IP-Changes
- Stability in Remote Support if a video is played on supported client
Likelihood to Recommend
It is very well suited for smaller to medium businesses, due to its quite easy setup and management. The "Managed Software"-Section is exceptionally useful in such environments because you automatically get the newest updates and patches for a good range of software. In larger businesses, it can be quite unhandy, because it is quite probable, that one can get lost in the needed micromanagement for all the specials you have.
