I am in need of finding information to support the claim that sms is a better system over tivoli. Does anyone have any information to support or deny this claim? Thanks

Totally depends on the viewpoint. DeskTop management is one of the 7 cells of total enterprise management. SMS support solely DT management, Tivoli Enterprise supports all seven. On the contrary, it is mostly true that SMS 2003 is better than TivoliConfiguration Manager 4.2 - both of which are in beta now. As for SMS 2.0 versus TCM 4.1 I'd be in doubt - the MS version is 3 years old and heavily outdated and the Tivoli product only 1 year.
And finally, there are good ways to integrate SMS intothe Tivoli realm (and use Tivoli for the other six cells).

Finding independent reviews of tools like this can be done through the leading magazines (e.g. Infoworld.com) and search engines. I have only a set of reviews in a language other than English at my disposal, sorry...

Hope thiz helpz,
