Utilities that an SCCM Admin cannot live without
While SCCM is fairly well thought out, there are quite a few utilities that make the product even better. I have put together a list of things that I think an SCCM Admin needs to be even more efficient:
SCCM Client Center - I use this utility on a daily basis. It allows you to connect to a specific client and rerun adverts, repair wmi, view logs, etc. It makes SCCM life much easier:

SCCM Collection Commander - While never good practice, sometimes you need to have Direct Membership collection. Whether it be for a test lab or a very small Pilot, This utility helps you out. It takes a list of machines from any text file and adds the machine names to a collection you specify.

Dan Ireland's Right-Click tools - There are other right-click tools out there but, in my opinion, these are as good as it gets!

SCCM Toolkit - In talking with people over the years (toooo many to mention) I am always surprised at how many do not use the SMS/SCCM Toolkit. If for nothing more than Trace32, it is worth the download:

I am always looking for more utilities so please let me know if there are anymore not listed here that would be helpful to others.
