Misled

My next session was SCCM 2007 on steroids - real life experiences.

What it actually was was a company called Adaptiva using three of its customers to do a sales pitch on its products - Client health, One site and Green IT with companion.

Worst of all the presenters skipped the slides, so I had to guess at was was being demo'd!

Client health all the demo's failed - they stated typically 5-10% of all SCCM clients have errors - (I'd be interested to hear in the comments if Mark/Raitis you think this is about right, and what you do about it, as this product does not work!)
Tool seemed overly complex, needed an additional admin console, I was not impressed and neither was anyone else as half the audience left.

Other two products the demo's worked but again just not great products - if we wanted to invest in these areas, 1E have what appear to be better working products (Nomad, Nightwatchman and the Power and Patch pack).

Overall an appalling session.
