Patch Manager Plus - Several Years in Production

Client is easy to install and very light weight - does not use any noticeable amount of device resources. Deployments are quick and easy to update/follow.

Customer support

Functionality

Pros:

We implemented PMP prior to COVID when work-from-home was not as prevalent as it was now. Network reliant patching would have been a major headache without PMP. Deployments are very easy to manage and report on. My favourite element of the main dashboard is the RSS of latest security news which links directly to patch updates.

Cons:

Reporting is slightly weak - it has gotten better recently but this is one of the more lacking aspects of the suite. (e.g. the client scans for installed software but can't report on it...)

Reasons for switching to ManageEngine Patch Manager Plus

Bandwidth was limited in the company and thousands of devices pulling from a single internal source was a massive strain on the network usage.

Functionality

Pros:

I like that I can quickly see a condensed view of the patch installation progress for each endpoint. I could also run a filter and show only limited results

Cons:

Too many new build releases within a short period of time. This consumes too much time and the connected endpoints clients need to be updated as well. Due to remote work, users sometimes put off the updates until they are physically availabale at the office

Reasons for choosing ManageEngine Patch Manager Plus

Very effective patch management

Functionality

Pros:

Simple, clean, and easy to use interface. The automation works very well and I especially like the ability to automate patch testing and approval. That brings about a big efficiency gain. Scans run quickly and the devices stay in regular contact with the server. The self-service portal is also a very good feature as in some circumstance that becomes a very useful way to deploy some patches.

Cons:

About the only cons I've seen is I don't see a way to control the interval of the patch scans or when they can happen. The scans can use a bit of cpu so on some devices I may want to limit when they can run.

We already have other products in the Zoho ecosystem and price.

Reasons for switching to ManageEngine Patch Manager Plus

Streamlined, Reliable, and Intuitive Patch Management Solution

My overall experience has been excellent. ManageEngine Patch Manager Plus has exceeded my expectations, offering a stable and feature-rich platform for automating patch management. It has already helped me close multiple vulnerabilities quickly and efficiently, saving time and reducing manual work. I’m very likely to move forward with a full deployment after the trial ends. It’s a great fit for any IT environment looking to enhance their patch compliance and endpoint security posture.

Pros:

The ease of deployment and the intuitive interface stood out immediately. Within minutes, I had my environment scanned and patches classified by severity and type. Scheduling and automation are powerful yet simple to configure. The reporting features are detailed and very useful for audits or compliance. I especially appreciate the broad OS and third-party application support, which allowed me to patch a wide range of systems from a single pane of glass.

Cons:

So far, during the trial, I haven't encountered any significant issues. If I had to mention anything, it would be that the initial learning curve for navigating all the policy and deployment settings could be a bit much for new users. However, the documentation and support resources make this manageable.

Reasons for choosing ManageEngine Patch Manager Plus

Larger third party catalog. Better pricing

Pros:

Excellent software for managing updates and security vulnerabilities. Easy to use. Convenient and logically arranged menus. Good online help. A great alternative to WSUS.

Cons:

No remote control option. Some updates are not downloaded automatically and require manual download and upload to the server before distribution. Although the management interface includes a detailed explanation and a download link, it is not clear why the download is not performed automatically.

Reasons for choosing ManageEngine Patch Manager Plus

Pros:

ManageEngine Patch Manager Plus is a great tool for getting a centralized view of systems and their current patch status - but to be able to also manage the patches from that interface just makes life easier!

Cons:

I must admit that the backend management is a bit clunky. While easy to deploy and manage, doing work on the backend is a little more manual.

Easy to setup
