August 15, 2022

Pros

Its super easy to use and manage all the endpoints without managing all the on-prem infrastructure and paying for its licenses costs.

Some hiccups here and there but with the help docs and support team, it won't matter a lot.

### "ManageEngine Endpoint Central"

August 23, 2022

5.0

It is a very good product and seen lots of features are available as well as easy to use and deploy.

Pros

Software Deployment, Patch deployment and Device management

Cons

As of now, nothing is missed, but it will be good if agent deployment will happen via the .msi file instead of the exe file. MSI files can be deployed via MDM and help open internet systems.

Reason for choosing ManageEngine Endpoint Central

Cost and support as well as usability

### "Manageengine Destop - Top Notch"

March 1, 2021

5.0

Very good. It works well and support is great, one the best for a free product

Pros

It works ! Easy to update, keeps systems up to date. Good support.

Cons

Considering we are using the free version, 25 or fewer computers, I have no complaints. Any missing things that I would want are in the paid version, but we are not large enough to warrant spending funds, and the ROI does not pencil out.

### "DesktopCentral Plus"

April 12, 2021

4.0

Pros

Majority of the functions. The management of patches, remote desktop, and software deployment. Inventory plays a big role for us so it is nice to have a single location,

Cons

It is difficult to say. The ability to assign better role restrictions, Better ability to create your own database queries. Manuals have always been an issue for me especially configuration examples

### "Affordable Centralized Desktop Management"

July 6, 2021

4.0

Cleanup of Active Directory, vulnerability management, patch management, mobile device management.

Pros

Centralized management and visibility of patch status, including third party products is great. The inventory reports out of the box work well. It takes some time to get set up. Deploying via remote agent never worked correctly, but via GPO worked just fine.

Cons

Remote deployment would have been nice. Several of the user guide articles seem to be out of date. Lots and lots of settings to wade through.

### "Endpoint protection and network device management solution"

October 29, 2020

4.0

Overall it is a good experience. gets the job done so nothing more is expected of it.

Pros

Endpoint protection and safety. In these covid times, the seldom used tool for endpoint protection started being used very very frequently as our organization is operating remotely. People are using their smartphones and laptops to access sensitive information and hence, endpoint protection is the need of the hour

Cons

A little complicated to learn. Need a specialist to operate.

Reason for choosing ManageEngine Endpoint Central

Pricing was the primary factor here. got a good deal.

### "Ton of features"

January 14, 2020

4.0

I did like the software, but it can be daunting for someone without much experience. Not the most user-friendly.

Pros

This software is packed with features, more so than any other i've used.

Cons

Sometimes the features are too much. You pay for everything and may not use half of it.
