Ability to assign preferred networks for agent installation
This could be done by a simple weight rating for preferred subnets. The idea is to give a way to tell the KACE to try to use LAN connection before wireless connections.

wait
When scripting, it would be useful to have a pause/wait feature. Similar to the start /wait functionality in a batch file, this would be helpful in online kscripts.

Software inventory aging
I would like to see an aging process for removal of software that is no longer installed but resides in the software inventory. It wouuld be nice to include an audit process where software is flagged after 90 days of a zero install count to add to a smart label then report before removal from the table.

More granular control of what a use is shown on computer information tab
Our users find the information on the computer tab too detailed. Would like to be able to just show the first table, not software, hardware. . ..

File Sync - multiple location fields
File sync needs to be improved to allow multiple locations to be synced at once instead of creating different packages. It would be ideal to have multiple file paths sync - similar to the dependencies on a script.

Asset - Ability to make quick changes
A quick edit button which appears on hover for each individual field in the table view which you could use to make quick changes while still being able to view the information of all assets as a whole? This could tie into the bulk edit idea by Andrew to use one quick changed asset as a template for bulk changes.

Create Smart label from Inventory

Multiple distribution packages assigned to one software
The problem is that there are a lot of software applications out there that don't differentiate themselves once installed between 32 bit, 64 bit, or any of the OSs (i.e. 2003 vs. 2008) but have different installation packages depending on these items.

Label awareness: software is installed when placed into a label - uninstalls when removed from label
Similar to group policy software installs via active directory, it would be ideal to have labels react likewise. When a computer is placed into a label, it would install whatever software or managed installs assigned to the label - when the computer is removed from the label, the software would uninstall at next check-in instead of remaining on the pc, leaving unnecessary / not utilized software across the inventory.
364 votesThis is a great idea. We will need to first blend the software and managed install functions into the software catalog in order to do this. This is something that will take a while to implement, but certainly has our interest.

Batch assign asset field values based upon smartlabel membership
It would be great to have an ability to create a smartlabel that identifies a group of machines, then use that smartlabel to assign a static value to an asset field for those machines.

Allow admins to change the width of the label in a support ticket, not just the fields.
You can change the width of the fields that the user fills out, but the labels are held to a certain width which forces some labels to show up on two lines appearing very crowded and unprofessional.

Integrated Community Resource Sharing
An integrated means of browsing community reports, scripts and managed installation resources from within the K1000 admin console. It should also be very easy to share such resources from within the same areas of the admin console.
