ManageEngine Endpoint Central

Product Summary

ManageEngine Endpoint Central is a cloud-based unified endpoint management solution that allows organizations to monitor, manage, secure, and remotely troubleshoot various endpoints. This software enables managed service providers (MSPs) to automate numerous IT tasks.

Use Cases

  • Endpoint management:
    Allows users to manage multiple endpoints from a single console and troubleshoot any issues.
  • Patch and software management:
    Deploy software and patches to endpoints and servers and manage software licensing. Administrators can also block unauthorized software and manage permissions.
  • Remote access:
    Gives users the ability to monitor endpoints remotely, allowing them to access file manager, task manager, registry, and other tools.

Shortcomings

  • High system resource usage:
    This service requires a large amount of resource consumption on the device that’s being managed, which can cause performance issues.
  • Scalability:
    When the number of endpoints and the complexity of the IT environment increases, the solution can struggle to perform and may become difficult to manage.
  • Customer support:
    Some users have mentioned having difficulty getting support for complex issues and that the support team is often slow to respond or follow up.
  • Reporting:
    Some users struggle to customize reports. Pulling or presenting specific data in the user’s desired format can also be challenging.

Other solutions offered by Veeam include Veeam Data Platform, which packages Veeam Backup & Replication with additional security and recovery capabilities. These capabilities include anomaly detection, automated updates, full system recovery, and immutable backups.

Use Cases

  • Enterprise-scale backup:
    Veeam is widely used in enterprise environments with large virtual infrastructures and multi-cloud deployments.
  • Cloud workload protection:
    Veeam offers dedicated solutions for various cloud platforms such as Microsoft 365, Azure, Salesforce, and so on.
  • Advanced backup features:
    Additionally, Veeam supports granular restore capabilities, data replication, and immutable backups.

Shortcomings

  • Multiple products for full coverage:
    Users may need to deploy multiple Veeam solutions for full protection of SaaS apps, endpoints, and cloud workloads.
  • Learning curve:
    Some reviews report that setting up Veeam’s full suite may involve a steep learning curve for new users.
  • Primarily backup-focused:
    Veeam focuses on backup and recovery, so endpoint management, patching, and monitoring would require separate tools.
