User Testimonials
	Heimdal DNS Security - Network and Endpoint	PDQ Deploy & Inventory
Likelihood to Recommend	Heimdal No answers on this topic	PDQ PDQ Inventory is great if you have a local network of computers on or off a domain. As long as you have a way to log into them with common credentials. Great for large organizations, particularly ones interconnected with VPNs. PDQ Inventory isn't so great for PCs that aren't connected to the same LAN the server is on. (i.e. non-vpn remote users) They used to have a remote agent you could install, but it was removed after numerous issues. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Pros	Heimdal No answers on this topic	PDQ Push out new software Push out Updates to current software Push out patches and updates that we don't have other ways to push out Keep end-users updated with little involvement Incentivized Mike Montagna VP of Information System Read full review
Cons	Heimdal No answers on this topic	PDQ As good as there email support is.. would like a live operator option Some updates are hard to understand when 5 versions of the same program exist Thats about it, PDQ deploy is the best out there Incentivized Jim Ryan IT Manager Read full review
Likelihood to Renew	Heimdal No answers on this topic	PDQ PDQ is very useful and one of the tools that we use a lot. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Usability	Heimdal No answers on this topic	PDQ Logical - If I want to do something with the software, it is quite clear on how I need to go about that. There isn't some weird process that is proprietary to just that vendor and is counterintuitive. What I want to see is displayed with just a couple clicks. Incentivized NA Nick Axelberg Network/Technology Director Read full review
Support Rating	Heimdal No answers on this topic	PDQ The built-in help menus and general ease of use render whatever systems support there might be almost irrelevant. There is stability in the system's simplicity; if you're in the position to use such a product, you're your own best friend. Simple web searches more often than not turn up the solution to any little niggles, such as what silent install switches specific applications require (a remarkably wide choice of options exist). System updates are timely and unobtrusive, installing in no time at all. Maybe I've just been lucky; if so, long may it continue! Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Alternatives Considered	Heimdal No answers on this topic	PDQ This software was referred to us by an IT professional. Previously, we were installing the software with the help of remote desktop applications but it was very time consuming; it was wasting the user's time since he could not use his computer. After testing PDQ Deploy, we just never looked back. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Return on Investment	Heimdal No answers on this topic	PDQ Speed of deployment is very positive for new software setup, saving hours of testing and deployment locally Made patching for large computer estate very efficient, another positive for staff not having to spend hours of patching individual machines Works well for small team of IT's and again makes various repetitive tasks much easier Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
