600 on WAN-connected sites, another 100 or so on broadband sites (Zen
can manage those broadband sites via an agent, not sure about the
others).
 
I use Citrix for application availability for some apps, so the
workstation/user management features are more important.  Imaging is
also secondary, as we also use Ghost.

Hi Folks,

 

I'm currently using Novell's Zenworks for workstation and user
management here (imaging, ghosting, remote control, inventorying,
application deployment, user and workstation management).  There is a
new version out and it looks great.  But, before I purchase Zenworks can
those of you who use LANDesk, Altiris, and SMS give me some feedback on
what you like/don't like about those products?   All of these products
seems to provide similar functionality.  One big thing for me (as my
organization is not-for-profit) is that Microsoft has non-profit
licensing that is so much less than the other three, and cost is a
factor here.  But Zen does a lot in one package and I need to find out
if the others do the same.

 

Comments welcome. 

 

Thanks,

Tom
