    Hi guys where would you recommend the purchase of SCCM for a small-Med business with around 80-100 Internal users?

    What sort of price can I budget for this application.

    Many thanks for an urgent response guys :)

    You might be better off thinking about System Center Essentials instead of SCCM.

    As far as where to buy, speak to a VAR (Value Added Reseller).

    Which VAR would you recommend that sells these items for a reasonable price. Thanks

    It does depend on the licence type you go for, what type of organisation (eg education) and what country you're in (you don't state where you are in your profile).

    These are the suppilers that at some point I've used for MS licensing (with AMC & PCS being the last two that I've used as they were the cheapest for me):

    AMC
    PCS
    Dabs
    RM
    Misco
    Civica

    Like I've said before, it does depend on the type of licence and the type of organisation you are. .

    Don't forget you may have to also take a look into purchasing/renting the CALS or ML for SCCM as well as SQL (not sure if you can use the express version). See here for basic info.

    We already got SQL studio backend on our boxes. I checked those links but could not really find a link to purchasing or querying further about SCCM.

    I take it I need to call them?

    ... and we have forum rules that companies advertising their services need permission from site admins.

    @OP: You can check out Computer Products Limited too - http://www.c-p-ltd.com. You would need to give them a call, but we use it for most of our needs (with the exception of cheap random stuff from eBuyer, Amazon, etc.) and both the price and the service we're getting are really good.

    I know one of the guys from Softcat (MarcusP) and they are good guys, but Matt you do have to stick by the forum rules.

    As I already mentioned, speak to a VAR (as I don't think you would fall under the LAR banner).
