I am going to skip the comments about speed, obviously you know its a problem and I know this stuff can be tough with a huge user base.
Here are my biggies:
-Multiple machine lists, so I can store them by department (I work at a uni with hundreds of groups)
-better export of spreadsheets from lists, what kind of crazy alphabetization is going on with the service tags?
-Better Asset intelligence: If you know I have 320 days left on my contract, is it so hard to have the site give me an expiry date so I don't have to figure it out myself? We're all using the same Gregorian calendar here (though I wouldn't put it past some of my users to use the french revolutionary calendar). Why is the expiry date a separate, non-dynamic field that isn't usually filled in?
-Driver stuff: I know dell has A LOT of different models, and the point-of-sale config data is not always there, but would it be possible to offer a wiki-style component on a given system page where us IT folk can impart our wisdom to the community regarding a given machine? It would have to be moderated, but it would help us differentiate between the 800 wireless options on a D600 (old example but you know what I mean).
-Finally, Cross-browser compatibility: Standards exist for a reason, please ensure that Premier is fully W3C compliant. Dell is doing some really exiting things on the OS side of things (ubuntu, moblin, android, etc), why can't it be as cutting edge with it's offerings to IT support?
Thanks for letting me rant!!!
