## Reviews

### "Beyond Awful" — 1.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *13 March 2019* | Computer Networking | Recommendation rating: 1.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The uninstaller that is helpfully bundled in the ISO.
> 
> **Cons**: The UCMDB Browser is meant to work out of the box. It rarely does and is nothing short of a nightmare to configure using SSL and a Load Balancer. The entire product needs to be deployable from the cloud. Configuration Manager has been deprecated entirely.
> 
> I have realized that there are far better products on the market.

### "The most difficult inventory application" — 3.0/5

> **Hasan** | *10 June 2019* | Electrical/Electronic Manufacturing | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I have never seen such a hardly established practice in my life. You need to work for hours to get a report. Most of the time CI relations are not smooth. insufficient support in Turkey.&#10;&#10;I wish I could write good things, but I'm sorry.
> 
> **Cons**: Although a lot is missing as well, the product is expensive with unnecessary license. Support fees are very high.
