We performed a comparison between Ivanti Neurons Patch for Intune and Quest KACE Systems Management based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Patch Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."I have found the interface and ease of use valuable features. Additionally, it is very easy to patch VMs and other systems, such a Linux. We are able to do patches even without the internet manually."
"We use the solution for security patching of Windows devices."
"I like the product's Peer to Peer patching feature."
"The solution is a good product and I have heard that the interface is more friendly than that of Windows."
"Ivanti Patch's most valuable features are the patch module and the package distribution."
"It is very easy to use, as well as extremely efficient and accurate."
"Both in terms of features and operations, this is a good solution."
"The most valuable features are device management and support for upgrading applications."
"The software asset management has been a big help, even when it comes to license true-ups. I can use it to find out how many Tivoli we have, and boom, there's the number... And you can actually click on the information about the software and it shows, for example, that these five servers are where it's being reported. If you really want, you can log in to them and validate."
"The most valuable feature of KACE is the mass package deployment. There are a lot of endpoint management solutions in the market. The way KACE responds is with the installation management feature, which is done in a very intelligent way, as well as scripting. It's wow. It's really wow. On top of that, there is a mass undeployment feature as well."
"The solution provides us a single pane of glass with everything that we need for endpoint management of all devices. It definitely has made our endpoint management process much easier."
"There is ease of use, and its pricing was a driving factor."
"When vulnerabilities are exploited so much, it is nice to be able to quickly detect or deploy what is needed within our off-work hours or during work hours without a reboot."
"With KACE, we were able to have a simplification of the software deployment management with more granularity and flexibility."
"We're able to deploy software and push out fixes to endpoints faster than ever."
"Using this solution saves us lots of time, especially when it comes to performing updates."
"It's a difficult configuration because you need to install many servers in a location, and you have to install the primary server in the main location."
"I would like to have better support for the application."
"Ivanti Neurons Patch for Intune needs to improve stability. We had issues with patching."
"There are times when there is an update that causes some issues. These issues should be sorted out before the release."
"I tried to be a partner of Ivanti and, from this vantage point, the quotes are, perhaps, a bit high."
"Customers sometimes ask about non-existent features, and we pass these requests on to Ivanti."
"Ivanti Patch could be improved with better integration with other cloud solutions."
"The product's support and configuration need to improve. It needs to be more scalable."
"The K1000 doesn't communicate well with some clients without SMB. There are some issues with getting things to image correctly because they rely on SMB, and SMB is a protocol that is being removed due to security reasons. Organizations are trying to rely less and less on SMB. I know Quest is aware of it. They've talked about having a new version that wouldn't rely on SMB for connection to the clients, but they haven't gotten there yet."
"The initial setup was complex. It is a Linux-based virtual server, where the customer cannot get into the back-end, so you can only follow their prompts. Then, there are specific things that have to be done in their implementation and upgrade phases that have to be done in a certain order or steps. If you don't get those steps right, the system doesn't work. I think that either simplifying that process or providing really good step-by-step documentation would be helpful."
"What could be improved is the possibility to use replicas in a secure way outside our network in order to maintain the machines that never connect to our corporate network."
"Scalability is my primary concern right now."
"The only hiccups we had were some power issues, where the box was a little under-powered early on."
"It could be designed a little bit more intuitively in terms of administration."
"There isn't a lot they need to improve with the solution itself at this point. It is pretty close to providing a single pane of glass for everything that we need for endpoint management specifically on all devices. There is very little that it doesn't provide for us, and for those, we have to go to other methods. There are some of the patching solutions that it doesn't take care of for us. So, we have to do those manually on the devices, and that's really the biggest thing. It doesn't do patching really well for non-Microsoft applications. The major application updates, particularly Windows updates, don't function nearly as well, but, for the vast majority of things, it does just fine. If they could improve in this aspect, that'd be great, but I don't know if they're going to be able to do that."
"The KACE Go Mobile App crashes a lot, and it always has. I would love to see that get fixed because it's very convenient when it does work properly, but most of the time it does not."
