Microsoft Intune: This Course has covered in-depth content with 10+hrs of dedicated training content which covers all real-time concepts with step by step Demos.
Microsoft Intune is a 100% cloud-based mobile device management (MDM) and mobile application management (MAM) provider for your apps and devices. It lets you control features and settings on Android, Android Enterprise, iOS/iPadOS, macOS, and Windows 10 devices. It integrates with other services, including Azure Active Directory (AD), mobile threat defenders, ADMX templates, Win32 and custom LOB apps, and more. As part of this training course, I have demonstrated on-premises infrastructure i.e., an Active Directory connector to manage on-premises devices with Intune.
Microsoft Configuration Manager (has more than 50+ hours of training content): In the past, we use to call as SCCM/ now it’s Part of Microsoft Intune Family or part of Endpoint management at Microsoft and we call it MSCM /SCCM / MECM or Microsoft Configuration Manager and it is an on-premises management solution to manage desktops, servers, and laptops that are on your network or internet-based. You can cloud-enable it to integrate with Intune, Azure Active Directory (AD), Microsoft Defender ATP, and other cloud services. Use Configuration Manager to deploy apps, software updates, and operating systems. You can also monitor compliance, query and act on clients in real-time, and much more.
Co-management (3+hours of training content): Co-management combines your existing on-premises Configuration Manager investment with the cloud using Intune and other Microsoft 365 cloud services. You choose whether Configuration Manager or Intune is the management authority for the several different workload groups.
As part of Microsoft Intune integration, co-management uses cloud features, including conditional access. You keep some tasks on-premises while running other tasks in the cloud with Intune.
Endpoint Analytics: EndpointAnalytics is a cloud-based service that integrates with Microsoft Intune. It provides insight and intelligence for you to make more informed decisions about the update readiness of your Windows clients. The service combines data from your organization with data aggregated from millions of devices connected to the Microsoft cloud. It provides information on security updates, apps, and devices in your organization, and identifies compatibility issues with apps and drivers. Create a pilot for devices most likely to provide the best insights for assets across your organization.
Windows Autopilot (3+ hours of training content): Windows Autopilot sets up and pre-configures new devices, getting them ready for use. It’s designed to simplify the lifecycle of Windows devices, for both IT and end-users, from initial deployment through end of life. This course covered all scenarios that Autopilot supports.
Microsoft Intune Admin Center (10+ hours of training content): The Intune Admin Center is a one-stop web site to create policies and manage your devices. It plugs-in other key device management services, including groups, security, conditional access, and reporting. This Microsoft Intune Admin Center also shows devices managed by Configuration Manager and Intune.

45SCCM Client Deployment - Group Policy Based Deployment MethodVídeo Aula
GPO based Client Deployment
Advantages
Doesn't require computers to be discovered before the client can be installed.
Can be used for new client installations or for upgrades.
Computers can read client installation properties that have been published to Active Directory Domain Services.
Doesn't require you to configure and maintain an installation account for the intended client computer.
Disadvantages
If a large number of clients are being installed, it can cause high network traffic.
If the Active Directory schema isn't extended for Configuration Manager, you must use group policy settings to add client installation properties to computers in your site.
For other Client Deployment methods you can check this Microsoft Link

83Software Metering - ReportsVídeo Aula
Monitor software metering:
Software metering is used to monitor Windows PC desktop apps with a filename ending in .exe. Software metering does not monitor modern Windows apps (such as those used by Windows 8).
Determine how many copies of a particular app are in your company
Discover any unused copies of an app
Determine which users regularly use a particular app
Woodgrove Bank has deployed Microsoft Office 2010 as its standard office productivity suite. However, to support a legacy application, some computers must continue to run Microsoft Office Word 2003. The IT department wants to reduce support and licensing costs by removing these copies of Word 2003 if the legacy application is no longer used. The help desk also wants to identify which users use the legacy application.
Woodgrove Bank's IT Systems Manager uses software metering in Configuration Manager to achieve these business objectives. The Admin performs the following actions:
Checks the prerequisites for software metering and confirms that the reporting services point is installed and operational.
Configures the default client settings for software metering:
The Admin enables software metering and uses the default data collection schedule of once every seven days.
The Admin configures software inventory to inventory files that have the extension .exe by configuring the software inventory client setting Inventory these file types.
The Admin adds a new software metering rule, named woodgrove.exe, to monitor the legacy application.Waits for seven days, after which the client computers begin to report usage data for the woodgrove.exe executable.
The Admin uses the Configuration Manager report Install base for all metered software programs to see which computers have the application woodgrove.exe loaded.
After six months, the Admin runs the report Computers that have a metered program installed, but have not run the program since a specified date, specifying the software metering rule and a date six months in the past. This report identifies 120 computers that have not run the program in the past six months.
The Admin makes some further checks to confirm that the legacy application is not required on the identified computers. The Admin then uninstalls the legacy application and the copy of Word 2003 from these computers.
The Admin runs the report Users that have run a specific metered software program to provide the help desk with a list of users who continue to use the legacy application.The Admin continues to check the software metering reports weekly and takes remedial action if necessary.
As a result of this course of action, IT support and licensing costs are reduced by removing the applications that are no longer required. In addition, the help desk now has the list that it wanted of the users who run the legacy application.
