Nope, see the last sentence :)

How about renaming "computer" in explorer to the name or have a tool for them 
to provide all necessary information and a lot more?
Is that the only reason you use UDA for?

We have UDA set from usage data.  Our Helpdesk finds it very useful for when a 
user calls in and needs some remote help.  Much easier for them to look the 
user up in CM, click on Primary device, and open the remote session, than try 
to walk a user through how to find their computer name.  I've also used it as 
others have mentioned, for deployments.

My goal is to have admin assigned UDA only, through service desk, and assign 
software mainly to users to avoid managing computers (or asking users for them)
I also want it to be installed on the device with the primary user only, not 
have them followed.

Personally..  I don't really care about user affinity to any specific device..  
but then, I'm a fairly small facility, and users are either always using the 
same machines,  or they are using identical kiosks, so for us, UDA really 
doesn't do much.

Does anyone use UDA?  I've been toying around with the idea of more user 
centric approach.  Our IT department isn't very good at keeping our inventory 
system up to date.  From my job, it probably wouldn't be any harder than 
managing systems.  I don't really care what computer you are using, I care that 
the correct software is available to you. What's everyone's  thoughts?
