What is System Center?

System Center is a data center management software that helps businesses of all sizes monitor networks, system storage, security, and more. It offers integration with cloud platforms and provides teams the ability to gain insights into system analytics and diagnosis metrics affecting the health of monitors.

The solution enables administrators to scan the workload across Windows, Linux, and UNIX operating systems, identify problems and notify relevant personnel to resolve issues. System Center also lets professionals compile routine operations or system-level workflows and execute them using PowerShell scripts to deliver tasks across data centers.

The platform lets admins manage devices in the storage area network (SAN) to create, assign, and mask logical unit numbers (LUN) and manage internet small computer systems interface (iSCSI) as well as fiber channel capabilities. System Center also provides a service center automation module, which lets managers use service request form templates to share relevant information with concerned individuals via a self-service portal.

Pros
Automation and the usage of ITIL principles just bring it home for me. This software is like fine matured whiskey, it takes someone who knows what good is to appreciate the tools.
Operative System deployment and software inventory. Super powerful and it worth the investment.
It's a great product and using it's full potential no doubt it´s a great Investment. I love the software delivery.
Cons
The interface can be confusing at first if you have not paid for a training course. It leads to gatekeeping where it is difficult to get started as an admin.
Software or system updates can become "stuck" and will not install, requiring intervention from our IS department, or running repair software.
The biggest complaint I can make about the entire suite is that the learning curve is quite steep.
