ManageEngine Patch Management Plus is a game-changer. Its intuitive interface, automated patching, insightful reports, and robust security features make it indispensable for efficient IT management. A must-have for IT professionals.

While ManageEngine Patch Manager Plus offers numerous benefits, one potential drawback is its learning curve for advanced configurations, requiring a bit more familiarity and time investment.

Really good. It was very easy to get started and anytime I needed support assistance, they are available via chat in a matter of seconds.

To me what makes this product so great is it does NOT utilize the built in Windows Update service that has been giving us trouble for so long. ME uses their own agent / service. This has made the patching process a lot smoother during our trial. The management console is also super user friendly and very easy to navigate.

it made our patch scheduling for production servers a bit difficult because there is no option to manually click install when ready to start installation. instead we are relying on detailed auto install policies which work for us but this is the biggest limitation I have see thus far.

The product is functional and is a good replacement for a standard WSUS implementation. However some issues mean this product makes assesing the actual state of your endpoints difficult.

The product is affordable and the dashboard when logging in gives a good overview.

Machines with the agent installed and functioning would lose connection to the console, troubleshooting on the workstation showed no issue and the only way to resolve was to re-install. This meant we couldn't trust the reporting from the product 100%

Ease of deployment to all servers are workstations through manual deployments and auto-deployment rules. Third-party application deployment is a plus and the scanning regularly includes all the assets.

There are some limitations for Java updates as we need to upload the patches manually. Another issue is with some agent uninstallation from the clients. Some agents are stubborn and do not uninstall easily.

The ability to schedule custom jobs for workstations versus servers greatly helps. The custom jobs including being able to use wake-on-lan to update the machines after business hours. We are a small IT staff and I handle all of the infrastructure related tasks including updates. This has greatly reduced the time I spend each week getting updates/patches deployed. After using it for a while there is very little effort needed in getting deployments scheduled.

The ability to download and deploy patches with ease for both Windows and OSX.

It took a little getting used to but that is probably my fault for not reading and going through the demo.
