"The most valuable features of the solution are accessing the data through the mobiles and meeting with the compliance for security best practices."
"The most valuable feature of Ivanti Endpoint Security for Endpoint Manager, which my company mainly uses, is patching. Another valuable feature of Ivanti Endpoint Security for Endpoint Manager is that it allows you to view the inventory list of the different machines."
"The key differentiator is that it manages mobile devices and laptops in the same console. Windows and Linux are on the same console. This is the only product that does this. It's really the best in the industry."
"The best part about Ivanti and Matrix 42 is that they are low-code solution builders with drag-and-drop capabilities regarding service management."
"The solution's most valuable features are its patch management functionality and provisioning."
"Patching and remediation are the strongest features."
"The EDR console should have more extensive reporting. You shouldn't need to purchase FortiAnalyzer. It should be included in the EDR part. The security adviser cloud platform could be improved with more options for exclusive or intensive rules for devices."
"I think cloud security and SASE are areas of concern in the product where improvements are required. The tool's cloud version has to be improved in terms of the security it offers."

"The solution can improve by adding new remote console or endpoint features to make the solution easier to use."
"I haven't found that that solution does anything amazing."
"It would be interesting if the solution offered a way to try to investigate and create a use case to trace vectors."
"The solution needs a complete overhaul or makeover. It gets stuck sometimes because they're focusing on the cloud UEM stuff rather than paying as much attention to that particular piece. The ease of use could be improved. It combines many different functionalities that you would need multiple servers like SCCM. If I wanted to train people, I’d move to a higher level from an Apache architect. There are five or six different products. So, training functional staff to use the product can be challenging because it can sometimes be cumbersome. Reporting is challenging. We use Avanti extraction to report off an endpoint. We don't use the reporting because of the need for more functionality, granularity, or customization."
"When you open a new mobile, you automatically come onboard the mobile on the Ivanti platform but it needs some improvements."
"If I want to integrate the solution with any other solution, pushing the policies from the Ivanti side is a bit tough."

"Ivanti Endpoint Security for Endpoint Manager's support provided to its users by the vendor is one area that needs to improve."
"The product's blocking definition needs improvement."
"One of the features that Ivanti could improve is patching for non-Windows settings, such as Linux and Ubuntu."
