I'll look into it. I can probably find lots of things that we could use.

I honestly think the answer boils down to what do you intend to do with
SCCM? There are plenty of smaller environments who run SCCM and are very
happy with it, and a lot of other smaller environments that run it and hate
it, because they didn't have a good plan for it going in. SCCM has a lot of
different features, you may want to do some reading up on them and see if
any of them will be advantageous over the solution you have now, and move
from there. From a learning perspective, advancing as a windows sysadmin,
learning SCCM is definitely a good use of time.

Hey all,
Not dealing necessarily with accessibility at all, but speaking of SCCM, is
it good for the smaller environment? I'm curious because right now, the best
we've been able to come up with is a combination between WDS, Otter, and
WSUS for deployment and orchestration; well, Otter would have been used for
Orchestration regardless simply because it's easier than Scorch to set up.
My question is, though, does SCCM offer anything in the way of advantages
over the cobbled together solution we have? Any reason why I should push
SCCM? Resources are lower than we'd like, so right now, we're stuck with
what we've got until we can get more (though between the four of us, we do
manage to have about seven physical servers between local and offsite
resources (though some of them are older and are being phased out.) one of
the things that drives me insane with Microsoft software is the amount of
Ram one single product takes . That's so far what's keeping us away; others
in my group say, why use SCCM when something cobbled together takes less
resources and works just as well?
