I do 99% of my software pushes as login policies. This guarantees the
machine is up and running and that the software gets installed before the
user sees his Desktop. It requires setting the preference in the JSS Admin
section to not allow the login to complete until all the policies have run.

Also, if someone's waiting for an update then all I have to tell him is "Log
out and log in again."

Bigger pushes such as OS updates take longer and require restarts. I'll
handle those by caching them ahead of time and then scheduling an install or
creating a log out policy.
