Ivanti Unified Endpoint Manager, formerly known as LANDESK Management Suite, is a versatile software utilized globally across IT business units for asset management and solving remote support issues. It offers a wide range of features such as patching, software distribution, imaging, monitoring, and inventory management. Users benefit from improved support capabilities and better response to vulnerability attacks. The software enables efficient remote deployment of software/images, troubleshooting, and quick management of thousands of computers across different locations. Additionally, it provides additional functionality for asset management, reporting, and system administration. While some users have mentioned the higher cost and learning curve involved in ticketing conventions, overall, Ivanti Unified Endpoint Manager proves effective for managing assets, distributing software, standardizing imaging, and enhancing security measures.

  1. Users recommend opting for the self-hosted version of Ivanti instead of the cloud version, as it provides more control and flexibility in managing IT assets and processes.

  2. Reviewers suggest implementing regular updates and patches to ensure smooth and secure software performance. Applying these updates has resulted in significant improvements in stability and reliability of the IT infrastructure.

  3. Customers recommend leveraging Ivanti's integration capabilities with other systems and tools. By integrating Ivanti with existing IT management solutions, users have streamlined workflows, improved efficiency, and gained better visibility into their IT operations.

Ivanti Unified Endpoint Manager (formerly LANDESK Management Suite) is leveraged throughout our environment. It allows us to manage assets and assist our users through software distribution, patch management, remote access, and standardized imaging. Using queries to get quick information and to create lists for software distribution and patching is awesome, and is used regularly. Layering Ivanti Neurons on top of Ivanti Unified Endpoint Manager (formerly LANDESK Management Suite) allows for even greater reporting and, of course, dashboarding.
  • OS provisioning
  • Patch management
  • Software distribution (on premises)
  • PC remote assistance
  • Remote assistance for macOS
  • Software distribution (through gateway)
  • Error codes when software distribution fails
Easier to set up and leverage than SCCM. Ivanti provides a suite that is more powerful and learning friendly. If you have a mix of users that are on-premises and remote, Ivanti Unified Endpoint Manager (formerly LANDESK Management Suite) is a good solution. We have not had a great experience with the integration to macOS, but it works on-premises most of the time. If you are looking for an all-in-one solution that can provide end-to-end management, from service desk to reporting and asset management, Ivanti Unified Endpoint Manager (formerly LANDESK Management Suite) is an excellent fit.

Ivanti Endpoint Manager is our global solution for inventory, patch management, and software distribution. We also perform remote support activities and are ramping up a central provisioning strategy. Ivanti also ties in to our data warehouse solution and our asset management solution, feeding both with vital information to keep reports and device records up to date.
  • Patch management. You can devise multiple patch strategies, automate patching, and really drive your environment to a secure posture.
  • Software distribution. There are multiple avenues to take when it comes to distributing software, and Ivanti can support many of them. Their interface makes it easy to build packages, and using their distribution methodology, it is efficient in performing rapid mass deployments.
  • Device inventory. Out of the box, Ivanti gathers a lot of information on a device and you can report on nearly anything you want. They also have mechanisms in place to gather additional information from clients that are not standard, enhancing reporting capabilities and allowing you to provide useful data to your customers.
  • Patch reporting. Ivanti is still largely user and device centric when it comes to reports. Reporting on patches is still lacking out of the box. Through other tools, we can take the patch data and build the necessary reports, but we should be able to do this with Ivanti natively.
  • Documentation. While it has improved, Ivanti is still behind on documentation for their products, especially the smaller add-ons to the main suites. Their employees are willing to help teach on different aspects of the product, but a lot of this information should already be included in documentation.
If you are looking for a complete solution to manage and secure your endpoints, Ivanti is the way to go. Especially great in environments that have multiple sites and are global. If you have a small site (< 20 devices), the cost may not be justified depending on your needs. But for sites with a few hundred devices or more, this is a great arrow in your quiver of solutions to managing your IT needs.

We use Ivanti Endpoint Manager for machine imaging, software distribution, patching, and remote control access. It is also used as an asset tracking tool. Ivanti Endpoint Manager is being used by Moody College but is in the process of being rolled out by the University for all colleges. The product allows us to manage several hundred machines with minimal staff. We also have it integrated with the service desk to manage our ticket system. With this integration, we have a full picture of our equipment's life cycle.
  • Remote control access
  • Software distribution
  • Task scheduling
  • Apple's Mac imaging has always been an issue (This is not totally Ivanti's fault).
  • Distribution packages for Macs can be problematic.
  • We sometimes have high failure rates with scheduled tasks on a machine group.
  • Error codes are not specific enough. Sometimes it is easier to do a task manually instead of trying to figure out the error.
Ivanti seems to work great in the Windows world. If you have a lot of Macs in your environment that require regular re-imaging this might not be the best tool.

It is used by various IT departments at our main campus. It addresses the business problem of having to do things physically in person. With this software, we can deploy software/images remotely. We can remote into other PCs and fix a problem without leaving our desk, which allows us to still work on other things if we're updating that PC. It allows us to create sites to group labs into and update an entire lab at once.
  • Push software remotely. If someone needs software installed or updated, I can push it without them having to be there as long as the PC is on.
  • Imaging remotely. I can image a PC in place without having to bring to back to my office.
  • Remoting on to a PC to manually do something that can't be pushed.
  • Error codes are not always specific, when you don't know how to troubleshoot them it becomes easier to just do the task manually.
  • Better Mac support. While the client has gotten better since becoming Ivanti, there's still room for improvement.
  • Improving "My Tasks" section, I was advised not to use this because it can cause tasks to fail.
For an environment where it is majority PCs, this would be ideal because you can maintain them remotely. If you have a larger Mac environment and less PCs, another suite better suited for Macs would be better and the PCs can be done manually. Not sure if there is a solution for both.

We utilize Ivanti Endpoint Manager on all of our endpoints around the organization.

We use it daily to provide remote support, push tasks and fixes we have built, and also use it as our patch management solution.

  • Updated Device inventory
  • Security information
  • If I need information off a device(s) I can build a task or query to find those machines.
  • More stable versions (Not having to completely update my core on a yearly basis)
  • Updating community documents sooner (A lot of KB's are outdated)
If you are a mid to small company Ivanti can easily replace SSCM.

LANDesk Management Suite is primarily used as a provisioning, monitoring and management tool within our organization. We have standard images built and deployed to new baremetal computers with LANDesk. We also use LANDesk to update Windows computers and monitor licensing. It is used by a subset of 250 employees. The problem it addresses is a single pane of glass tool to deploy, manage and monitor computers.
  • Imaging- using ImageX or another tool you can use LANDesk to scan your network and automatically deploy to bare metal computers when they first connect to the network based on PXE Boot.
  • Management- you can use LANDesk to push software applications, windows updates and monitor the inventory of each PC in the system. You can trigger reports based on system changes to ensure your user population is not doing anything out of the ordinary. It also has remote control capabilities to allow your help desk to see what is happening on a user desktop.
  • Monitoring- you can use the software license management portion of LANDesk to scan PC's and automatically generate compliance reports based on your thresholds for any software package detected in the environment. It scans both Add/Remove programs as well as the programs folder.
  • Configuration can be tedious and takes some time. Once you become familiar with the many aspects of the system it can go faster.
  • Setting up software deployment can be frustrating due to unknown system responses given. A better FAQ on return codes would be helpful.
  • Setting up automated patching is a long process.
LANDesk is well suited if you are looking for a single application to deploy manage and monitor your environment. It is very helpful tool for HelpDesk teams in troubleshooting applications. You can also set up self-service application deployment portals to allow your users to download approved tools to their own computers or push updates automatically.
