What is your primary use case for Microsoft Windows Server Update Services?

We have Microsoft Windows Server Update Services in place to deploy standard Microsoft updates. It does not allow us to update or patch other products, which is a limitation. We use it for the deployment of updates without additional costs.

In our network, we have configured two methods. One is Symantec's GUP server on the graph of the server, which is directly updated with OSHS and server update packages. The second method is the WSUS server, which is connected to Active Directory and is a client within our network. It automatically updates Windows patches and services.

We can use the tool monthly to make updates concerning security and other things.

I use the tool to update the main servers.

We use the solution for the internal server. We use the tool to push Windows updates to the computers. It is mainly for internal patch management. We use the tool to manage updates across different server environments.

We use the solution as per Microsoft’s policy.

We use the solution to update servers and clients.

I use it to update.

My primary use case for the product is to manage product updates for my Windows servers and client computers.

The solution is used to push the patches, have a central location for patch management, attach all your service infrastructure, keep up to date, and serve security updates.

The solution gives authentic updates.

Our company currently uses Microsoft Windows Server Update Services to install updates on the Windows systems that have been provisioned in the cloud. The primary use case for the solution is for managing and monitoring a distributed database system in a production environment.

We have more than 200 users in our organization.

We use the solution primarily for patching. It is a very crucial activity in terms of maintaining up-to-date images and safeguarding the operating system from different bugs and avoiding crashes. We keep everything updated, including security patches. We have multiple servers based on different flavors of Windows Server and different versions also from 2008, 2012, 2016, 2019, and 2022. Based on the policy, we deploy patches on whichever particular Windows Server on the required schedule.

It is being used both in my company as well as in my client's companies. We work on the basis of customer demand and whether they go for Windows or Linux. 60% of users use Microsoft since it's user-friendly and if they want the capability of maintaining the servers over the CLI then they tend to prefer Windows.

The solution is used for Microsoft updates and you can file the updates that you want to use.

We use WSUS on a host in our main data center so that all the Windows and the endpoint updates are downloaded to a central location before being distributed to the endpoints through our local network. The aim is to avoid the endpoint downloading the update directly from the internet and killing the office bandwidth.

The most valuable feature of Microsoft Windows Server Update Services is the fact that we can deploy patches from Microsoft security patches and deploy software.

I am using Microsoft Windows Server Update Services for patch management.

I use Microsoft Windows Server Update Services to facilitate updates.

My primary use case of Microsoft Windows Server Update Services is to enforce patching for applications. I act as the client, not the server admin. If, let's say, my laptop has not restarted frequently, this solution will force me to take a couple of minutes to restart. This solution is deployed on cloud, so I'm always using the latest version.

My primary use case is general patch management, to make sure that when Microsoft releases patches, we test and deploy them within the timelines. The solution also ensures that we are compliant and protected against vulnerabilities.

We primarily use the solution for internal updates. What happened is that one of our equipment items had a problem with a new Windows update and so we have to uninstall this update. We were looking for ways to do it centrally. There were some Lenovo boxes that were restarting automatically and we had to take out these updates.

We use this product for patch management.

Our primary use of this solution is installing Windows updates.

We use the solution to update servers in our company. We're a construction company and a customer of Microsoft. I'm a systems administrator.

WSUS is used differently depending on the client and their requirements. For some clients, I only use this solution for security patches and updates. In some cases, I use Windows Updates and Windows Upgrades. I have more than 4,000 clients and it is important to me to make sure that the upgrade process does not affect my third-party software. This means that for most of them, I stopped the upgrades and only use the WSUS security patch tool to keep up with the latest protection available for my environment.

We use the on premises version.

The primary use case of this solution is to minimize the data flow from outside.

The primary use case is to update the server and Windows desktop. The deployment model we are using is on-premises, mainly.

Our primary use for this solution is varied and broad. There is not a single solution that we use it for because it can take on different roles. It could be an exchange server, it could be the SQL server, it could be used for security and analytics, it could be used in cross-configuration, it could be used for domain name systems, it could be a file server — the potential of the solution leaves almost limitless possibilities. It truly has a million uses.

We primarily use this for deploying and downloading through systems and servers.
