Overall Satisfaction with Ivanti Unified Endpoint Manager (formerly LANDESK Management Suite)

We use [Ivanti Unified Endpoint Manager (formerly LANDESK Management Suite)] to know what we have, where it is, and manage those assets in the field. Patch, Software Distribution, Imaging, Discovery, Monitoring, and Inventory are the main areas we focus on. Other areas that we also use UEM for also include Application Control and Environment Manager but these to me are ancillary and not core functions.
  • Patch(Security) is done really well. You can use roll out projects or built-in automation as well as the use of groups and scopes to design pilot and other use cases.
  • It takes a solid inventory of what you have of your endpoints and can do an agentless scan as well if you need to collect data that way as well.
  • Provisioning is rather simple and even allows you to use other products' software for the image or the built-in if you wish to do so.
  • Software distribution works well and has a lot flexibility built into the module.
  • MDM has fallen a bit flat, however, with the recent acquisition of MobileIron I believe this will change but as of now there is some of this still built into the product
  • The antivirus portion of the product hasn't had much love and could use a bump. It is not bad at all but I would like to see it hit that next level.
  • Data Analytics is the most powerful tool inside this platform but it is so hard for people to figure it out that it often goes unused. It needs a good redesign.
  • API could use some work.
  • Do much more with less
  • Consolidate products
  • Save time pulling repeat work in other products
  • Reporting for Executives
ManageEngine had lots of the whizbangs but couldn't tie it all in together. It was a bit clunky and you still would need other products to get the job done. All-in-all it didn't seem like a full solution that would meet our needs.

Ivanti ITSM Service Desk, powered by Heat (formerly LANDESK Service Desk), Ivanti Security Controls
You need to push O365 or some product out to your institution. If you need to build out a reboot before and after and maybe something else, [Ivanti Unified Endpoint Manager (formerly LANDESK Management Suite)] can easily do that for you. It then can also use a query to determine who needs that product in your environment and then continue using that query to watch for the machines you targeted to show up once your push succeeded. If you need to, you can use the task scheduler and schedule your software distribution for a specific not in normal business hours or on a weekend.
