System Center Configuration Manager

Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager is a product that takes a centralized approach to the hardware/software inventory of a company’s systems. System Center Configuration Manager (SCCM) is meant to work with the other parts of the System Center suite in terms of configuration management. ActiveBatch provides customers of both products with the ability to automate many aspects of Configuration Management.
