Yeah...if all you need is patching, ConfigMgr (SCCM) may be overkill for you. ConfigMgr can deploy MS patches and those 3rd party patches available in the 3rd party catalog provided by Microsoft. And, it does it extremely well. It can also deploy 3rd party patches, but a product like Shavlik has is designed simplify the 3rd party patching process.
