We can deploy and configure remote machines with a fair amount of ease after we set PDQ Deploy up. We are responsible for sites spread over 16,000+ square miles (over 25,000 Km) in Texas. We also have smaller remote locations all over the mainland US. We initially used the Free version but have changed to the paid version for all of the extra Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We were really hoping for PDQ to help us with Windows Updates, but it doesn't seem able to do that in a meaningful way. We haven't looked too closely at setting up the Windows update part, but it seems to lack completeness and is rather complicated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We are a small organization, so we don't always have the newest and fanciest things...let alone the staff needed to be efficient. PDQ Deploy has filled an enormous gap, allowing me to lean on this software to manage the majority of patching that I once had to do manually or try and figure out how to do it in SCCM (and that rarely worked).

PDQ Deploy is so easy to use, and I'm sure folks are using a lot more advanced features than I ever will.

Pair it up with PDQ Inventory, and that's where the product really shines! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I'm not a huge power user of the software, so I'm sure there are some advanced features that others might be interested in, but I have no complaints myself! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Such a help when deploying new machines with built-in packages and software packages I've created. I really enjoy using the Inventory side to pull lists of commonalities in our machines and even seeing things like what printers are mapped. Once you've got it all built out how you want it, it's one click to deploy and you just let it roll and do it's thing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

You better make sure your AD and routing is clean as a whistle because you might run into timeouts or scan error codes that you'll have to track down and fix before it works, although that's more of a reflection on the environment where you deploy it. More packages in the package library would be great to choose from. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It takes 5 minutes to set up. It does everything that they advertise it having the ability to do. The learning curve is as steep as you want it be. The out of the box features do 99% of what we need and you can use custom powershell scripts to handle that last 1% Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really wish they would have built onto WDS themselves to handle PC imaging so that PDQ Inventory and PDQ Deploy could handle our new PC's right after they are unboxed and did not require us to buy another product like Smart Deploy or configure WDS ourselves and wait until the PC's are on the domain before PDQ Inventory sees the device and PDQ Deploy can go from there.

PDQ makes endpoint software management and patching a breeze. PDQ s one of the best tools in my arsenal to help automate deployment removal of system settings, and it works well in our environment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have nothing negative to say about PDQ. If anything, it would be nice to see more software packages added to PDQ out of the box or at least an option to add additional mainstream software for patching. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We are able to deploy software to hundreds of users in 3 different countries. We have saved so much time and effort with PDQ. Everyone in our department raves on the ease of use and how easy it is to create packages. We've been using PDQ deploy for over 3 years at my current business and I used it for years at my previous business. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only dislike is that we are unable to deploy outside of our network. There is no gateway or relay to deploy through the DMZ. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I had the misfortune of being forced to work on SCCM & Dell KACE for several years. PDQ isn't too simple for our needs (ex Ninite Pro) but still offers enough flexibility to add our own packages, handle major windows updates, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We had an issue with Office 365 deployments but it turned out to be a corrupt download from Microsoft. Also it randomly stopped being able to update the server it was on, but that was resolved by support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

PDQ Deploy has made company/environment-wide rollouts almost too easy. Any time we are faced with pushing a software update or rolling out something new, we can do it in a few short steps, with PDQ Deploy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only thing I can think of that would be a pain point, albeit a small one, is the time which it takes the software to acknowledge or update an IP address that has changed. It does require a DNS flush (sometimes, more than one). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy to use and very powerful. It simply works to deploy windows software as it needs to. We've used many different toolset (even from MS) and they are not completed or hard to use. Integrates with AD seamlessly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing stands out however system administrator still need to deal with remote users who don't check in or check in often enough to get the new packages. You'll have to schedule time with these infrequent corporate login users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We were looking for an endpoint management solution for our environment and PDQ Deploy checked all the boxes !

I'm a big fan of it being an agentless solution as well as its capability to authenticate with LAPS (as opposed to domain admin account). The Support folks over at PDQ are very knowledgeable and have a quick response time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only downside for PDQ are its limitations when we have users working from home. When the endpoint is no longer on the domain network PDQ is unable to reach it. However there is a new product PDQ Connect coming up soon that will support this feature. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
