Allows us to set maintenance windows and deliver patches
We can set a maintenance window and push the patch. I prefer writing scripts, doing software deployment, pushing it, and distributing applications in servers for the corner of the whole location. We download patches from Ivanti, and it collaborates with more than 700 products. For third-party applications, we download the patches, set a role in our environment, and push it using the maintenance window time and activation date. For software deployment, we receive the service request to install and prepare scripts and then push it in many locations according and relevant to the service request for each location. The group or collection devices are affected by the policy.

A quite straightforward solution that works easily with different operating systems
Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten. When the use of the solution for customers grows, there is a need for more endpoints, and it may grow up to 500 endpoints, and the solution's use may even be scaled up further. It is possible to do what is needed to scale up the solution for the IT environments of any of our company's customers. Before scaling up, one needs to buy the license and consider the IT architecture to see if there are any modifications required in the solution. Around three of my company's customers who manage enterprise-sized businesses with a minimum requirement of 700 endpoints at least use the solution.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Both in terms of features and operations, this is a good solution."
"It is very easy to use, as well as extremely efficient and accurate."
"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."
"I like the product's Peer to Peer patching feature."
"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."
"We can set a maintenance window and push the patch."
"The solution's technical support is top-notch. Whenever I have a question, they get back to me immediately, which is probably one of the best features of the solution's technical support."
"The ability to deploy patches seamlessly is the solution's most valuable aspect. It allows us to not only deploy patches but to monitor the deployment of those patches."
"The automated patch deployment feature is really helpful. I can schedule it anytime, even on weekends, without needing to restart systems. The centralized management and unified console are great. It shows me which PCs are out of date or which users are breaching our policies. I can test patches before deploying them."
"The most valuable features are patch management and mobile device management."
"The initial setup was easy."
"Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"The fetch repository is a good feature."
"ManageEngine Patch Manager Plus covers almost all my end devices, and I can easily look over my device's hardware status."
 

Cons

"I tried to be a partner of Ivanti and, from this vantage point, the quotes are, perhaps, a bit high."
"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."
"Ivanti Neurons Patch for Intune needs to improve stability. We had issues with patching."
"The product's support and configuration need to improve. It needs to be more scalable."
"There are times when there is an update that causes some issues. These issues should be sorted out before the release."
"Ivanti Patch could be improved with better integration with other cloud solutions."
"Customers sometimes ask about non-existent features, and we pass these requests on to Ivanti."
"The reports have to show the compliance level of the patching, which Ivanti does not provide."
"The tool's support needs improvement."
"The solution's UI is an area that requires improvement."
"They should add better features for managing hardware."
"The user interface of ManageEngine Patch Manager Plus needs to be made more user-friendly, simplified, and less complicated."
"The solution should have a customer label where we can label those servers or include those servers for specific customers."
"The solution's initial setup is not straightforward, and we have to customize it with our relevant features."
"I think ManageEngine Patch Manager Plus could improve its testing capabilities. If they could test different SQL versions and server versions in their sandbox, it would be better. For example, it didn't work well with Server 2012, but it works fine with 2016 and up."
"There are limitations to this solution when we are working with iOS, Apple laptops or desktops such as the Mac and iMac."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"For the one that works with SCCM, it is relatively inexpensive at $8 USD per node, yearly. The standalone product has two versions; the one that patches servers is about $45 USD annually and the version that patches workstations is about half that price at $22 USD."
"While the price is a bit high, it may be equitable with the features one gets with the product, such as that involving the interface."
"The solution is expensive compared to other products."
"The license can get expensive if you have a lot of nodes."
"The solution is affordable."
"I rate the price of the product a five on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
"The price of this product is reasonable."
"I rate the product price a three on a scale of one to ten, where one is low price and ten is high price."
"Our licensing fees are on a yearly basis, and the charge for support is extra."
"The solution cost is around $5,000 per year."
"The pricing for ManageEngine Patch Manager Plus is on the moderate side."
"ManageEngine Patch Manager Plus is a little bit cheaper."
"Its price needs improvement."
