Likelihood to Recommend	ManageEngine, A Div of Zoho Corporation Pvt Ltd 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.

Pros	ManageEngine, A Div of Zoho Corporation Pvt Ltd 3rd-party application updates: since WSUS didn't allow us to do that, Patch Manager made updating software like Adobe and Chrome so easy. The ability to schedule patches after working hours is very nice. The dashboards that we can easily show to top management.

Cons	ManageEngine, A Div of Zoho Corporation Pvt Ltd If this tool can fetch serial numbers of the devices on which this is deployed This tool should collect all application installed at client machine which is not available as of now. Intergate more application which can be patch using this tool. Incentivized LG Lalit Goel Deputy Manager Read full review	CloudLinux No answers on this topic
Usability	ManageEngine, A Div of Zoho Corporation Pvt Ltd 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.

Support Rating	ManageEngine, A Div of Zoho Corporation Pvt Ltd The support team at Patch Manager Plus has been awesome. Very responsive and knowledgeable. There are times when there is confusion between different tickets but there is still good service. Incentivized DN David Nada IT Analyst Read full review	CloudLinux No answers on this topic
Alternatives Considered	ManageEngine, A Div of Zoho Corporation Pvt Ltd 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.

Return on Investment	ManageEngine, A Div of Zoho Corporation Pvt Ltd ManageEngine Patch Manager Plus provides an excellent return on investment. We were able to get our systems fully patched, which we'd never been able to complete before. This provided excellent security to our organization. ManageEngine Patch Manager Plus saved us a lot of time as most of our patching was fully automated. ManageEngine took any issues we found and looked for solutions to further improve their product.
