microsoft system center configuration manager

Microsoft Endpoint Manager is an integrated solution for managing all of your devices, and Microsoft brought together Configuration Manager and Intune without a complex migration and with simplified licensing. Thus, the ‘Current Branch’ for Microsoft Endpoint Manager was born. Microsoft started releasing more periodic updates to Microsoft Endpoint Manager, adopting the ‘branch’ nomenclature from other teams within Microsoft ( Windows, Windows Server, etc.). Back in the day, System Center Configuration Manager (SCCM) followed the same update cadence as the rest of System Center (2012 R2, 2016, 2019, etc.).Ī few years ago, starting in version 1910 (October 2019), Configuration Manager became a part of Microsoft Endpoint Manager. Newer versions include 2107, 2111, and the brand-new 2203 release!
