One thing from a layman's standpoint, the report should be very clear. Another thing is proactively identifying the problem. SysTrack collects telemetry data and identifies potential issues. However, if there is an option to resolve those issues automatically, that would be better. Some automation to resolve small issues where manual intervention isn't required would improve the solution. So, adding some automation could be beneficial. Another drawback is that it only provides data when the system is online. If you want to see previous data, and the system is offline, SysTrack won't provide that information. It would be helpful if SysTrack could store past data, even when the system is offline. This is because we may need to analyze critical data from SysTrack even when the user's system is off.
If they can integrate some kind of remote administration tool, like the LogMeIn tool, it would be helpful for the DDS team members, as well as for the global team members. We need not search for an additional tool for troubleshooting purposes. Currently, we are using one tool for governance and then we have SysTrack for monitoring the endpoints. There are two tools, and we are spending money on both. If we had this capability integrated into SysTrack, it would enhance SysTrack. It will serve as a single tool for the whole environment. Currently, Resolve is doing that at the back end, but if we want to find out what the user is facing through a screen-sharing session, the option for remote control should be there in SysTrack. SysTrack has various features such as sensors and self-healing capabilities, but the self-heal capability needs to be enhanced. Many organizations have their own customized setting for applications, such as Outlook, in terms of plug-ins, etc. If we can put and customize the self-healing capabilities in SysTrack, it would be great. We should be able to specify which things should be there in Outlook and which things should be blocked in Outlook, such as additional plugins. If somebody is forcefully installing an additional plugin, SysTrack should have the capability to roll that back to the default. It currently lacks a centralized console. We have to move from one portal to another. We have to go to Visualizer, and then we have to go to Resolve. Instead of that, it could have a centralized console that provides all the options on the top. For example, Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager (MECM) console has all the options on the top. There are tabs to go to a user device, user collection, deployment, etc. This is not available in SysTrack, and this is something that can be enhanced in SysTrack. Instead of going from one place to another and then going back just to check what is the status of the endpoint, there should be a single console with access to all dashboards. There could be a dashboard where we can see the impacted set of all clients or applications instead of going to an individual client or application.

There are a lot of issues with the solution and certain features such as the survey feature and sensors, that don't work well and need to be improved. In addition, we have multiple servers servicing different regions and we'd like all the data to be seen on one console but that's not possible, it's a limitation of the product. They release so many features but they're not sufficiently developed and are not functional or performing in the right way.

When I create a dashboard for a computer-based GPO or user-based GPO, I get details of all the GPOs, but the feature that we found missing is that SysTrack doesn't state how many seconds were required to apply a GPO. It doesn't tell us how many nanoseconds, seconds, or minutes it is taking to process or apply a GPO on a machine. This feature is not there. When there are major issues, if we have the processing time in place, it will help us to identify whether it could be an issue with the domain controller or something else. It would give us a clear understanding to engage other teams for resolving the issue.
You need someone with a lot of knowledge to manage the system. It isn't a plug-and-play solution. It requires a person to maintain it. It would be much easier if you could get the results without spending so much time monitoring the system. When users complain about the user experience, an alert tells us that we need to resolve this issue. This can be a BI or AI recommendation. I want to see all the SysTrack reports coming from the user side. A lot of my customers want to see it from the application side. It means that I can understand the user experience in a lot of applications, but it's hard to see what it's like on the other side. It's hard to see the user experience in Outlook or SAP. Another thing is tracking changes. If I have my system running, and I'm changing my hardware in the VDI environment, I want to choose a date and see the difference before and after the event. SysTrack has good online training, but I think SysTrack needs to open it to all the customers in the portal. Usually, they open it for one user for a month. I think they need to open it to all the users all the time.

The tool needs to improve the integration with third-party providers like Cisco products.
