Yes, we are piloting SCCM 2012 in multiple campus departments right now.  I=
 agree with you that SUP appears to be inferior to WSUS.  I imagine we'll s=
till use WSUS separately.  And for those units obsessed with single pane of=
 glass reporting SUP will be available.

Subject: SCCM 2012

We are currently using SCCM 2010 for software deployments and inventory,and=
 will add Forefront at some point in the future.  However, our foray into u=
sing it for software updates with Windows and Office raised some concerns. =
 The Notifications are less user friendly than the ones used with standard =
Windows Updates via Microsoft and WSUS.  After much research, it appears th=
at the SCCM Notifications are not customizable and, when a reboot is requir=
ed after updates are installed, the window is limited to 2 hours and not ex=
tendable.  I am wondering if anyone has rolled out SCCM 2012 or begun testi=
ng it and has any experience with the software update component of it.

Any thoughts, or comments, on this would be very much appreciated...
