Pick Foreman if…
Foreman is aimed at system administrators managing physical or virtual servers across on-premise and cloud environments. It is better suited to people with Linux system administration knowledge than to newcomers to server management.
Pick Microsoft Configuration Manager if…
It suits organizations managing Windows, Windows Server, or Windows Embedded devices that need scheduled deployment and third-party patching. Existing macOS clients are supported, but offline devices are not.
