what the difference between Microsoft WDS+MDT and bigfix OSD

Usage and Config OSD
1

Recently, I deployed operating systems through WDS+MDT and Bigfix OSD, respectively.
The principle is similar except that one is deployed with WDS and the other with bare metal server, although the WDS+MDT operation and process is much easier to understand.
Based on the above questions, I would like to know what are the advantages of BigFix OSD compared to BigFix OSD or what are the advantages that WDS does not have.
Thanks.

I think the.main advantages to OSD are

  • cross-platform deployment (OSD handles several Linux distributions as well as Windows)
  • Rapid provisioning of multiple OSD servers. The images and configuration are stored in BigFix, so it’s much easier to stand up additional OSD servers in hard-to-reach networks
  • Centralized management of multiple OSD servers
  • Multicast deployment options

The main disadvantages I see for OSD is that it can be difficult to understand, some of the mechanics of how it works are not well-documented publicly.

I would add drivers management: a strong point of OSD.
