Absolute Software complete endpoint visibility and control
Rating: 10 out of 10
IncentivizedUse Cases and Deployment Scope
Absolute Control software is my solution to ensure endpoint protection. Features such as software resilience, device control, and full visibility of assists in terms of location and configurations.
Pros
- Software Resilience to automatically reinstall a required application on the endpoint if it has been removed even after fresh OS installation.
- Geolocation. Offers full visibility of endpoints related to physical location of the device in real time.
- Automation to run power shell scripts on endpoint to mitigate and remediate misconfiguration or custom configurations.
Cons
- Reports are not simple to generate.
- Removal of Absolute application itself on decommissioned devices is complex and not managed by customer. Need to open a request with Absolute support.
- Being able to completely remove Absolute software on retires endpoints could be really helpful.
Likelihood to Recommend
Absolute Software configurations are based on policies that can be configured una very detailed manner, which addresses different groups of endpoints. Absolute software is installed at the BIOS level, which makes the agent if the endpoint goes through OS reinstallation.
