Thanks, folks.  I will be looking at KBoxes again.  I evaluated Landesk a few 
years ago.  It was full of great features but it was too expensive for us.

I just had the Kace rep in my office yesterday afternoon and it seems like a 
pretty comprehensive product.  I am going to check out the Landesk lunch and 
learn later this month as well.

Folks,

Looking for recommendations for pc/server management (Windows devices only at 
this time).  At my last job I used Kace appliances and they were great.  I am 
looking at those this time but thought I'd ask the list for additional 
suggestions.

At my new job we  have System Center Essentials 2007.  It's not so good but it 
is old and I understand that product is EOL.

Looking for:  patch distribution/management, inventorying, reporting, ability 
to create granular groups based on factors like IP, machine type, AD 
memberships, OU location, software deployment, and remote control (not super 
important since we already own a product for this).  Embedded help desk, even 
if basic, would be a bonus.  This place doesn't have one currently.

This would be for about 350 nodes.   Can be appliance, vmware machine, or even 
hosted.  As long as it does what I need.

Thanks,
Tom
