  19. 2009 Gartner Magic Quadrant (PCCLM) Avocent (LANDesk) “has a complete PCCLM product (LDMS), along with competitive products for endpoint protection and service desk. LDMS has some of the best capabilities for package deployment and patch management.” Microsoft (SCCM) “Microsoft ConfigMgr customers tend to have higher staffing levels to manage the infrastructure and to build functionality that doesn't exist in the product natively” Symantec (Altiris) “The Altiris product is complex, and successful deployments typically require high levels of investment in time and resources in both implementation and training.” Terrence Cosgrove Magic Quadrant for PC Configuration Life Cycle Management Tools Gartner ID G00172200, November 24, 2009

  25. True Cost “Organizations will be attracted to this product because of its inclusion in the Microsoft Core Client Access License (CAL) and as a result of broader Microsoft migration initiatives, but organizations need to understand the product's advantages and trade-offs.” “… we generally find that SMS/ConfigMgr '07 takes longer to deploy and requires more staff than competitive products,  and organizations should ensure that they are properly staffed.” “Highly distributed environments must invest heavily in server/database infrastructure to support ConfigMgr '07.” “Organizations that require leading capabilities to manage large or distributed environments may require add-on tools, such as those from 1E, or should consider alternative configuration management vendors that offer deeper mobile support options natively.” July, 2008 Gartner publication ID G00158410

  26. System Center Configuration Manager Why organizations avoid Microsoft (SCCM) Company Microsoft has traditionally exploited vendor lock-in A promise made is not necessarily kept (vaporware) Influence over product direction is slim to none MS has slow adoption of current technologies (results in less automation, more resources required) Organizations cannot be as competitive in their own industry using SCCM Product Product requires extensive architecture (remote sites, security infrastructure) Missing power management, alerting, agent monitoring, full remote control features, security delegation (RBA), non-Windows mgmt, automation (process) engine, etc Multiple architectures necessary to achieve systems + security Cost Licenses are 20% of the TCO for a solution - MS gives them away to compensate value proposition Supplemental products will require a multi-vendor answer to a single pain Lack of features and automation functionality necessitate multiple administrators, additional training

  27. Symantec

  29. Symantec Altiris Why organizations avoid Symantec (Altiris) Company Symantec is known as the place where apps go to die – Altiris is no exception Altiris management has jumped ship – all of them Severe cuts have been made to sales, development divisions, partners - vision With the new CEO, focus is now 100% on Security, Storage No expertise within the Symantec ranks for systems management Lack of knowledge around the pain = lack of a solution Development of Systems management has deteriorated Slips are a regular occurrence now – CMS, Virtualization, Asset, Service Desk, CMDB After acquisition, customers have been stranded Support experience has changed – more expensive, slower results, increased frustration Product influence is lost – integration has taken priority over innovation Vision and Execution is missing Product Product upgrades require a rip’n’replace CMS, SMS – new architecture; rest of portfolio is still on the old, non-integrated architecture License management, Internet control is missing; patch management, deployment is half baked Multiple architectures necessary to achieve systems + security Cost Uneducated and disinterested sales staff Lack of value has forced a give-away of Altiris licenses Takes extraordinary amount of cost to realize a smaller ROI
