(School Sys admin here too)... We don't use Ninite, but at my old job I looked at the implementation and liked the fact that you can have a local-central repository (This saves bandwidth and keeps things in our control).
- m0nty 13y agoIt depends on the number of users, but I found it was very affordable for my network. I think it's less than $200 for the year. Beats using GPOs via Active Directory, visiting each machine in turn, or relying on users to do it (which is largely impossible anyway). The central repository is handy, but the software expires fairly quickly in some cases so it's most useful when I'm updating many PCs at once. If you can persuade your finance dept to fork out some money, I would recommend it.
- noinsight 13y agoAny larger company should be using SCCM or e.g. Miradore for configuration management anyway, so Ninite doesn't seem that useful.
