User Guides and Landing Pages

Overview

While there is a lot of documentation available here and on http://community.landesk.com it can sometimes be difficult to know where to start. Landesk has 2 extremely helpful resources available: a users guide and landing pages. They both provide a great starting point if you are interested in either starting to use a new Landesk component or want to learn more about one you use already. The Users Guide is a great starting point for learning more while the landing pages are more helpful for improving your knowledge, fixing issues, or making improvements to various Landesk components.
