Companies can't remove reviews or game the system. Here's why

We used it as a mean of patch management for Mircosoft and 3rd party patching for our environment. In my opinion, it is rather clunky focues more on pretty graphs and pages than on funtionality or simplicity.

We use Automox to patch and maintain all of our client and Server estate. We also utilise it in terms of Vulnerability review and remediation.

It covers off standard and third party applications and has largely automated this process for us reducing the manual effort to ensure our estate is up to date

We use Automox as our primary security patching solution for both Laptops, Desktops, and Servers. With a small team of staff, having a product like Automox that can take care of our staging and scheduling of updates not only for Windows and Apple but also for many other apps like Zoom, Adobe, and Google is extremely valuable. We automatically patch the majority of our systems without the need for manual intervention.

We moved from WSUS to Automox to give us better control of patching policies and provide better insight into the status of our devices. We were spending too much time manually addressing devices patching issues and didn't have a clear enough picture of what patches were installed on which devices.

We use Automox to support the automatic patching of operating systems and 3rd party applications. Automox can also help with the implementation of new software via workouts or even the removal of applications where management of the device is unavailable. The scheduling and patch policy enforcement is critical for our business to ensure endpoints are secure as soon as possible, especially in today's ever-changing security climate.

Automox is a great tool for end point deployment and patching, we have been using Automox over the years and it help was with Security configuration and to tun various custom scripts. Over the years the support via build in chat which is also live make to reach the Customer Service representative easily. Specially considering the dashboard with detailed graphical chats lets us understand the current system status.

We use Automox to identify unpatched applications and operating systems on workstations and servers. We needed a tool to more quickly identify and close cyber security gaps. Our manual research and semi-automated implemetation of security patches wasn't keeping us current. We have a large remote workforce, and our existing tools would require connection to the corporate VPN in order for us to detect that a workstation was out-of-date and then send patches to it. Some employees almost never connect to the VPN, so it could be many months before we were able to patch their PC.

We use it for software distribution and software updates on the end user client devices and servers - windows and linux. We picked Automox for its simplicity and ease of use, over some other tools that we could use like BigFix and Microsoft SCCM. Scope is all laptops, desktops and x86 servers in our environment

In our organization, we extensively utilize Automox for various purposes. Our main focus is on weekly patching of over 1800 devices running Windows, Linux, ChromeOS, Android and MacOS. Additionally, we utilize Automox for app installations and removals using worklets, although this is less frequent. The primary business problems that Automox addresses for us are vulnerability management and compliance. It ensures that all our devices are up to date, reducing the risk of security vulnerabilities. With an intuitive interface and an automated patching process, Automox saves us valuable time. We also leverage Automox for managing third-party application updates with minimal intervention required. Furthermore, it simplifies the deployment of standard applications across our devices. Overall, Automox has significantly streamlined our patch management and software distribution processes, improving security and efficiency in our organization.

We use Automox mainly for weekly patching of various kinds of devices running Windows, Linux and MacOS. Total more than 1100 devices. In rare cases, it is used to install/uninstall apps using worklets. Overall, Automox helps us with vulnerability management and compliance by ensuring that all devices are up to date. And Automox also saves time with an easy-to-use interface and the automated patching process.

We use Automox to manage and secure our endpoints, regardless of their location or operating system. With Automox, we don't need to use patch servers or multiple solutions for different OS platforms, as it allows us to patch, control, and secure our endpoints all from one cloud-enabled platform. We've been able to easily ensure that all our devices are up-to-date with the latest patches and software across all locations with just a few clicks.

Automox provides a simple yet powerful way to keep our server and end-user operating systems (Windows, Mac, Linux) up to date.
Most of our third-party applications are also updated automatically using Automox, with very little intervention required.
Finally, Automox also simplifies the process of deploying our standard applications out to devices.

I use Automox primarily as an automated patching tool across our three different operating system platforms, primarily as an effect to reduce our attack surface and minimize existing software vulnerabilities. With the agent based implementation of Automox I also periodically use it for limited configuration management purposes and reacting to short suspense Security bulletins requiring larger scale configuration changes.

Prior to Automox, we had a WSUS server that was not performing. As well as this we have employees globally many of whom are not on the network or domain and hence don't get reg. Updates and we can't ensure compliance and security for all software. Rolling out updates as well as software to a global workforce was troublesome and very time-consuming. We know that simply install Automox and assign the asset to a group and we rest assured it will furthermore be compliant. Also, the onboarding was good, and support has been good also. Automox really did simplify this for us immensely, and we have a visual on compliance and statistics. IT HAS PAID FOR ITSELF EASILY, WITH TIME SAVED ON ENSURING COMPLIANCE.

Our organization, albeit small, is held up to the same standards as some of our larger counterparts. As a result, our regulators scrutinize our IT environment and have been very particular with respect to information security and vulnerability management. Automox suits our needs perfectly and was extremely easy to integrate. It does not interfere with the computer's performance and our end users appear to be content with our vulnerability/patching process.
