Agentless patching is the best of all the products I've used. The real-time updates that don't require re-scanning after each step is great.

I recommend using the solution in environments where compliance, maturity and control of assets and software are outdated. I don't recommend it in an environment with less than 50 stations and collaboration on a single platform. The solution is very robust and allows greater visibility of the infrastructure, supporting the installation, updating and uninstallation of applications, as well as protection against ransomware.

Pros
Ivanti
  • Trusted ownership checking is a good way to implement effective basic protection.
  • Patching is important today to react quickly to security problems. With Security Controls, it's easier than ever before.
  • One console for whole security.

Cons
Ivanti
  • Performance of the console when using agentless machines.
  • The console layout is a bit cumbersome - would be better if all functions were accessible from one screen.
  • Common deployment examples to assist with deployment types.

  • More granular access level controls for technicians (restrictions for juniors) on the Mobile Device Management add-on
  • Monitoring mobile data usage on mobile devices, this has been in the product pipeline for 5 years, but not yet implemented
  • Ability to remotely support company-owned mobile devices with no end-user permission. End-user needs to allow the remote session, when sometimes that's what we don't want since we're doing an investigation.

The other tools we use do not have an inventory management tool. Also not many tools we use intergrate well with this product.

Support wasn't used as the cost didn't justify the expense. We have yet to use the support.

The local distributor of the product is always available, however most support is received within an hour from India. We've had complex requirements and the support team went so far as to customize their mobile application to suit our unique needs. We honestly can't complain about any support we've received and it's always been very quick.

Since we have been using Application Control for about 15 years, it is, of course, the best solution for us. We also looked at other products (RES One Workspace), but they didn't convince us. Some features of RES were good and are now part of the User Workspace Manager. The Microsoft solution seems too complicated to us and does not have the advantages of Trusted Ownership Checking.

WSUS (provided by Microsoft) is a MUCH inferior product, no flexibility at all, updates when it wants and how it wants and was generally not suit for purpose. In addition, endpoint offers all the other functionality that WSUS doesn't (as said earlier in my review, remote control, endpoint security and much more).

  • ManageEngine Endpoint Central has made user onboarding a cinch. We drop ship laptops direct from the manufacturer to the user and provision effortlessly via the agent.
  • This product has made technical support a breeze by enabling remote control, remote system tools and ability to deploy software or scripts with ease
