Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, HCLTech, Kaseya and others in Patch Management."This solution is stable."
"The most valuable feature of Ivanti Patch for SCCM is the detection logic."
"This solution has made life easy with respect to patching, compliance, and OSD."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is its ability to deploy patches to nearly all applications."
"It has the ability to perform mass distribution."
"It is a good choice for deployment that performs very well."
"We're a Microsoft-centric organization, so we are happy with the integration between products."
"The solution is user-friendly and easy to learn."
"The major features of this product are the reporting tools. The most valuable features are package deployment and application deployment. Security management is also good because any vulnerability will be identified, and you can fix it. It's the best tool because you never know what kind of client you will have. For example, you may have your offices in low bandwidth remote areas. But it's achievable because it accommodates the bandwidth that you have available. Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager is an excellent reporting tool for your environment. If you want to know the details about the hardware configuration, software configuration, what is causing a problem, or when a new feature update comes in for Windows, even that goes on SCCM itself. A lot of deployment stuff."
"The tool's most valuable features are easy patch management and software deployment."
"In future releases, I would like to see improvements with the feature upgrade for the SCCM, which Microsoft has already integrated. Currently, Ivanti does not give us information about the enablement package."
"We have some problems with patches not installing successfully."
"Not everything is readily available, and there are a lot of commands that are only executable via PowerShell."
"The solution is on-premises. The cloud version of the product, if a person needs to be on the cloud, would be InTune, which already exists as an option. SCCM doesn't need to offer cloud features for this reason."
"It would be better if automation options were available. For example, in Nexthink or SysTrack, there is an analytical tool. Creating dashboards would be very easy if you implement the same thing in Microsoft. That report will be a daily cost to the customers and good revenue for our organization. The price also could be better. In the next release, we need to include some features like tables, dashboards, surveys, services, and metrics in the dashboard. Whatever we are implementing will be downloaded by a report. Apart from the report, we will telecast from the dashboard. It's very easy to compare, and it will be easy to telecast to the end-users."
"The tool's deployment is complex and depends on the architecture you want to implement."
"Its client interface should be more accessible, and the notifications should be more customizable from the console. It should be more user friendly and have some kind of customized notifications so that we can use it on the client side. These are the reasons why we restricted its use only for the server environment and didn't use it on the client side."
"The solution should be more compatible with different versions of Linux."
"Our company would prefer not rebooting computers while people are using them. There seems to be no strategy behind it."
"We'd like the solution to make it easier to manage remote users."
