## Reviews

### "Good product with a little growth becoming a great product." — 4.0/5

> **Benjamin** | *19 May 2026* | Airlines/Aviation | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Remote access and Patching are very critical for our network. The more we work with deployment the more we are enjoying that feature.
> 
> **Cons**: Separation of security We have helpdesk staff that should only see certain computers. There is not a dynamic way to configure that at this point
> 
> Has been decent, separating support roles is something that does need approved on. There also need to be more updated "how to do" sections that are not using oder version of the products screen shots.

### "Comprehensive Unified Endpoint Management with a Great ROI" — 5.0/5

> **Thore** | *7 April 2026* | Logistics & Supply Chain | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The sheer breadth of features available in a single console is impressive. The automated patch management for both Windows and third-party applications has saved our IT team dozens of hours a month. I also find the remote control and software deployment tools to be very reliable. The reporting module is robust enough to satisfy our compliance audits without extra manual work.
> 
> **Cons**: The user interface can feel a bit dated and cluttered at times; there is definitely a learning curve for new technicians to find specific settings within the deeply nested menus.
> 
> Our overall experience has been very positive. We transitioned from using multiple disconnected tools to managing everything—servers, laptops, and mobile devices—through Endpoint Central. It has significantly improved our security posture by ensuring all endpoints are patched and compliant. For the price point, it offers some of the best value for money in the UEM space, especially for mid-to-large sized enterprises.

### "Balanced Overall Product" — 5.0/5

> **Anonymous User** | *15 May 2026* | Food & Beverages | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The improved and enhanced ability to create custom user and computer configurations along with the ability to customize patching to support flexibility throughout our environment.
> 
> **Cons**: 3rd party application patching is still a challenge. Most 3rd party apps require a task kill to be ran in order for the patch to occur and the product does not offer that function within the Deployment Policies so we often time have those patches fail to install.
> 
> Regardless of the challenge of 3rd party application patching, the product overall is still one of the best and strongest available. From asset management to software deployment the product continues to excel.

### "Robust and Scalable Endpoint Management for a Fleet of 1,800+ Assets" — 4.0/5

> **Allan** | *3 March 2026* | Telecommunications | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Scalability and Centralization: Managing 1,800 assets from a single pane of glass is seamless. The ability to push configurations and security patches across a diverse fleet (Windows, macOS, and Linux) without overwhelming the network is impressive.&#10;&#10;Automated Patch Management: The automated workflow for testing and deploying patches is a lifesaver. It ensures that our 1,800 endpoints remain compliant and secure with minimal manual intervention.&#10;&#10;Self-Service Portal: It significantly reduces helpdesk tickets by allowing users to install approved software on their own, which is essential when managing such a large volume of devices.
> 
> **Cons**: Reporting Complexity: While the data is all there, generating custom, high-level reports for a fleet of 1,800 assets can sometimes be cumbersome. The reporting module could be more intuitive and modern.&#10;&#10;Initial Configuration Overload: With so many features available, the initial setup and fine-tuning of "Collection" policies for a large environment require a significant time investment to avoid overlapping configurations.&#10;&#10;Agent Communication: Occasionally, troubleshooting agent-server communication issues on remote devices can be tricky without deeper diagnostic logs directly in the console.
> 
> Managing a fleet of 1,800 assets requires a tool that is both robust and agile, and ManageEngine Endpoint Central delivers exactly that. It has become the backbone of our IT operations, allowing us to maintain high security standards through automated patching and remote troubleshooting. While the interface has a slight learning curve due to its depth, the efficiency gains in software deployment and asset inventory are undeniable. It provides enterprise-level control at a very competitive price point.

### ""Jack of all trades" for infosec landscape management" — 5.0/5

> **Ilya** | *25 May 2026* | Financial Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Endpoint Central consists of gigantic amount of modules, having nearly no other contestants on market. Endpoint Management, MDM, Device Enrollment, Endpoint Security features -\&gt; usually it requires multiple solutions, while Endpoint Central consists of them all, which is impressive from cost perspective as well.
> 
> **Cons**: We found that if workstation has agent from "previous installation" (for example, from some historical not cleaned PoC) and there is no "previous" Endpoint Central server available - the only option is to gather data using special tool, send it to support and receive specific cleaning tool, otherwise you can't install "current" agent. On one hand - it is not a big problem because way to fix it is straightforward, on other hand - would be better if we could do it without engaging support.
> 
> It is very easy to install and configure solution, immediately providing impressive amount of knowledge and management over the connected landscape. Support is proactive and friendly, always reacting on request with very short terms.
