Ivanti Patch for Endpoint Manager vs. ManageEngine Patch Manager Plus

Ivanti Patch is easy to deploy and use for any windows patch management and auto scan. Configuration management is very great with Ivanti Patch. They have a great support community and provide you with the best help and technical support from the Ivanti Patch support team. Ivanti Patch and system center configuration manager give you the best tools and features to their users for security and configuration management.

If you are managing a very large number of computers, I would say 1000+, the standard patching tools provided by Microsoft will fail to do their job properly. This is where you will benefit from ManageEngine PATCH MANAGER Plus, being agent-based it is fast, easy to manage, and reliable. If you require functionality more than just patching, like security auditing, you have to look elsewhere.

The overall usability for the application is great precisely for the ease of use the application provides, if i would go in a different organisation, i would suggest implementing ManageEngine Patch Manager Plus or Endpoint Central due to its features, and productivity.

We were talking to Action1 and Adaptiva about their solutions of patch management. The main factor of choosing ManageEngine was pricing, which was considerably lower compared to these tools. Also, for Action1, it didn't featured some important features (like Linux patching), and it looked like a solution that is getting started in the market, even being more expensive than Patch Manager Plus.
