ManageEngine Endpoint Central vs PDQ Deploy Comparison

Ton of features, customizable interface, flexible patchmanagement

Difficult to deploy over GPO, must enable SMB to deploy from cloud

Patch management, remote control, IT inventory

Deploy configuration not always report in real time the status

Amazingly easy to use, lots of settings to play around, essential for remote workers

nothing so far, really looking forward to deploy it in our business

remote desktop and patchmanagement, and software deployment

easy to manage network systems and deploy softwares and patch management and computer management

Access to offsite\off network endpoints Schedule of patches with reporting Easy of use

Deployment confusion; not easy to deploy immediately without it waiting in the queue

Desktop Central provided us with the ability to replace several different software products that we were using before, and gave us so much more capabilities on top of them. Deploying patches, software, configuration jobs are a must in this day and age, and Desktop Central makes these processes extremely easy.

I really do not have any complaints about this software. They are always adding more and more functionality.

Patching and Remote Tools - allows us to support our equipment well

Patch Management - Would like to have the ability to create groups of devices and manually deploy based on patch assignments. this would allow for quick ability to deploy patches to multiple items, but still have the agility to control when patch goes out

We were able to manage our assets, patch updates, deploy software and manage mobile devices. we were searching multiple applications and this allowed us to keep all in one location.

Unable to scan the network devices without the agent. Choosing devices to deploy is a bit tricky.

Deploy software, remote control, announcement

too many features and few time to applay... unfortunately

I like the ease of patch management and software inventory.

agent deploy was slow in some instances to report. had a couple push installs that required uninstall/reinstall.

For such a great price you get fantastic tool with which you can do absolutely any action on any managed OS, as well as get any inventory details for the licenses/hardware and so on.

Sometimes we have had issue to deploy particular patch, however it has been resolved promptly by a support.

Super easy to deploy software and navigate the system

Software deployment rarely "deploys immediately" - This is the most frustrating part of using the software. It can often take half a day to deploy a standard software to a VM and there is nothing I can do but wait.

Multiple OS compatibility Patch management feature Easy to deploy

A bit complex at first Some features not available for Linux

The software is very easy to use. Easy to deploy.

The manual inventory scanning could be better.

Inventory management and License management. Easy to deploy the agents. Easy

Not Applicable. We are satisfied with this product.

Patch management , software deploy and remote assistance These modules helping most

Some of the modules are not user friendly

# Its easy to deploy operation system to the machine. # create a policy and deploy them info machine. # software package content all required software with latest update. # inventory is cover all info about machine.

The design of the software and the sample implementation of the graphics.

It is really easy to deploy and the functionalities are excellent.

The patch management feature could be improved from my point of view. Too many times we have errors that are unexplained.

Easy to use, deploy patches, software, execute scripts with configurations module.

You cannot hide module that you don't use

product is easy to deploy and great asset for small IT teams!

there is so much the tool can do that it takes a while to fine tune it all. so far no complaints

The biggest benefits for us is Speed of patch deployment and the reporting features.

Some software that you can deploy to clients may not work out of the box. Also there is a significant amount of time to setup.

This soft i easy to use, easy to deploy and the agent is really efficient.

Could not launch or force retry an individual computer in a configuration job. the need to purchase more licence to increase security access using Secure Server Gateway. desktop central update process. unable to clean up the oldest update in the update manager.

I can automatically deploy one patch to 100 PC's from one portal and this is great.

This product is really making support easy for me. I like everthing about it
