Creation of a new, low-cost management license for desktops and other client devices makes it economically feasible for organizations to implement widespread monitoring of such devices with Operations Manager (OM) 2007. Inexpensive monitoring of client devices is a critical part of Microsoft's long-range plans for more dynamic client management. However, because client monitoring imposes a burden on IT staff, some customers may resist the opening offered by OM 2007, and they may restrict active monitoring to "critical" desktops, point-of-sale systems, and ticketing kiosks. This report is part of a larger series of Directions on Microsoft Licensing Outlines and should be used in connection with the Directions on Microsoft Enterprise Software Roadmap.
