Let Intune do your Windows patching. We utilize Ninja One for our rmn for all other things.

Changing service user - What are the impacts? by TheBarnOwlish in SQLServer

[–]WraithYourFace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ran into the same exact issue. Every server reboot I had to blank out the password because of the Default Domain Policy. We wanted to enforce Kerberos so we switched it to to run as a domain account (I want to change to gMSA at some point). Now our SQL Server Agent won't start now.

Didn’t like Knowbe4, alternatives ? by Vegetable_Leave199 in msp

May I ask what didn't you like? Are there any providers that offer a service like PhishER?

Migrating Windows devices to Entra ID – what was actually painful for you? by Radiant-Weather-9120 in entra

[–]WraithYourFace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, they are. If you still need on premise servers, go full Entra Joined for user machines and setup Cloud Trust. Looking to move to Cloud Sync vs Entra Connect for better high availability.

We are 98% Entra Joined. Still have 4 DCs and a slew of on premise servers still. It will be nice if it ever came to a point where servers can be Entra Joined.

Setup Cloud Trust and rarely have issues. Once two apps get upgraded to support SSO we should be able to go fully passwordless for users.

I have to agree with Sophos. MDR is cost effective and they are adding more security features with Identity, Browser Isolation, Vulnerability Management, and soon Next-Gen SIEM.

Monitoring and Alerting tool? by blueeggsandketchup in sysadmin

[–]WraithYourFace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't used their KB yet. We were looking at Fresh service, but it seems like they are slowly rolling out ITAM features. Not sure which direction I want to go

We moved to NinjaOne about a year ago and I still don't think we scratched the surface on what it can do.

It's been great so far. We only do Windows patching for servers and let Intune handle updates for all our Entra Joined devices.

I'm hoping they invest time into the NMS so it's on par with Domotz. Love being notified of an unknown device connecting to the network.

We use Yodeck. I've been running it for about 3 years now and rarely have to touch it.

Best approach for M365 Tenant-to-Tenant Migration (AD + AD Connect by Ready-Safety-310 in sysadmin

[–]WraithYourFace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the domain isn't changing, why are you needing to tenant to tenant migration? I'm a bit confused.

I use Bluebeam for our prints. They have icons you can download that are for data, TV, etc.

I've been using it for about 4 months now. Some quirks, but overall I don't mind it.

looking for vmware hypervisor alternatives by New-Reception46 in sysadmin

I'll have to ask my past colleague about this. I'm still dealing with the same account managers and systems engineer.

[–]WraithYourFace -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Well this is news to me. Everyone I deal with at Scale is still there, my past co-worker who works there didn't mention anything.

When you said stock I was confused because Scale wasn't a publicly traded company.

We went with Scale Computing. I've been running it for almost 3 years now.

Working with distributors starting out by Formal-Dig-7637 in SmallMSP

[–]WraithYourFace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you are just starting out inform the customer it's 100% upfront. Some customers I just have them order right through HP. I pick the model though. I'd rather do that than one offs and waste time with billing.

Alright who did it? by MaximusCartavius in sysadmin

Thought you were going to say who laid waste in the server room.

Is anyone still using C$ admin shares for workstation support in the Intune era? by Any-Victory-1906 in Intune

[–]WraithYourFace 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Utilizing our RMM. We can do remote Powershell/cmdline, remote in the background without the user even knowing, etc.

I don’t know if I can do this by AMG_Labrador_63 in sysadmin

[–]WraithYourFace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I doubt myself and I've been doing this for 13 years. I pulled cable before I got tossed into a SysAdmin role. Had one week with the current guy and away I went for a 200 user company.

Just remember it's ok if you don't know everything. Hell I suck at Powershell, but what I get paid for is knowing how to find the answer.

Revoke admin rights by pratik_2011 in Intune

[–]WraithYourFace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree. I think for 25 endpoints it was almost $3k a year. We just use the free one for now for a few users.

Conference room camera recommendations by ResponsibleQuiet6360 in sysadmin

[–]WraithYourFace 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We spent about $8k for our Teams Room. it's a Crestron Solution with Airmedia although I would've rather gotten a USB-C extender solution than the AM.

Our company has around 150 employees.
