The most valuable feature in Patch Management is the Qualys query language for set-it-and-forget-it patching for our preapproved patches, and our preapproved schedules, That is extremely helpful compared to the old days of patching.
Qualys Patch Management excels in automated scheduling and retrieval, enhancing patch rates to over 95% compliance and reducing IT manual tasks. Integration with Qualys Gateway Service optimizes bandwidth usage. It offers a consolidated source for asset assessment and remediation but lacks driver updates, VMware support, and displays detection issues. Vendor collaboration could broaden paths and reduce costs, though current pricing remains a hurdle for budget-conscious firms.
