Creative Breakthroughs Blog IBM BigFix: The Pure Power of Web Reports

One of the often overlooked capabilities of BigFix is reporting. BigFix gathers a ton of useful information and most of the information is digested within the BigFix console itself by the tool administrators. They are very familiar with the tools and where to find the content. They typically don't run many reports as part of the daily usage of the tools or the care and feeding of them. Within the BigFix console, all of the content that we have automatically displays all of the applicable systems. BigFix will also automatically group systems based upon just about any question (property) that we choose to ask. So in comparison with traditional management tools, I don't spend nearly as much time writing and running reports as I would with other tools.
