The lack of an ISO is a bit anti-enterprise I feel. Working in a bank with firewalls that flag a lot of stuff as false positive blocked items using the builder is problematic. The 2015 ISOs solved a lot of issues for us in terms of building a deployment via SCCM. I'm getting a headache just thinking about trying to get pulling hundreds of packaged executables through the firewall signed off by IT Security.

I feel an ISO including only standard packages from Microsoft itself would solve a lot of issues.

Layout is really crappy around blocked files or corporate firewalls. It feels untested in anything other than a completely open environment because some of the package downloads can fail silently with a fuzzy enterprise proxy. Creating layouts for patches seems dependant on what direction the wind is blowing, I think 2015 Update 3 took about 4 tries to download everything correctly and only way to verify was reading through the logs. Also that one needed a random Windows KB update on Windows 7 which was extra fun.

Better handling for layout around error handling and validation of downloads would be a boon. It would be great if there was a way of verifying an already created layout. Is there any way?
