We release ConfigMgr three times a year and with each release there is at least a page of features. If you’re seeing feature dumps every four months it’s safe to say that the product is not on the path deprecation. – Steve Thomas The full conversation can be watched at AMA: Cloud-based device management with cloud attach - Tech Community Live | Endpoint Manager (and Youtube) We used to put up at our conferences we put up big banners that say SCCM is not dead and then we started putting up big banners and say Configuration Manager is not dead and yet we still continually get … from our customers all the time “when do I have to go to Intune because I know Configuration Manager is on a path to deprecation”, can you please, I don’t want to say for once and for all because we’re going to continually drive this home, can you like just verify the fact that Configuration Manager is not dead and we still continue to develop for it....

Some customers even believe that ConfigMgr is dead… I’ll say it for probably the millionth time, Configuration Manager itself is not dead… We [Microsoft] just want to help you [customers] do better and simplify with cloud… we have tons of investment going into the on-premise state… we are not taking down ConfigMgr. – Danny Guillory (Twitter | LinkedIn | Ignite), Senior Product Manager at Microsoft

ConfigMgr, Game Changer

I started with ConfigMgr in 2012 and it has changed my entire career path, and personal life. I had no idea that starting to use this tool also meant I was joining the most amazing community of professionals. The friends I’ve made and the skills I’ve learned because of this tool have been no small part of shaping the last decade of my life. Thank you Microsoft Configuration Manager team and the community that makes this tool really great....
