Patch Manager Plus Makes My Job Easier
Reviewed on 2019/11/12
The ability to schedule custom jobs for workstations versus servers greatly helps. The custom jobs including being able to use wake-on-lan to update the machines after business hours. We are a small IT staff and I handle all of the infrastructure related tasks including updates. This has greatly reduced the time I spend each week getting updates/patches deployed. After using it for a while there is very little effort needed in getting deployments scheduled.
Pros
The ability to download and deploy patches with ease for both Windows and OSX.
Cons
It took a little getting used to but that is probably my fault for not reading and going through the demo.

Good value for the money. I with the remote-office proxy module was included in the base price but hey, you can't have it all.
Pros
I like that there's a build-in chat window that connects me directly with Manage Engine support.

Patch Manger Plus
Reviewed on 2020/05/01
Pros
The deployment method is great. I really like the fact that it does a inventory scan via agent to show what patches are installed and missing. The granular way of targeting a host or group via custom group and AD groups make patching easier to deal with. WOL, remote reboot, and shutdown is nice to have. Agent deployment comes with several choices from manual, GPO, to pushing out from console.
Cons
I think the reporting could be better. I would be good to see better logs/error message when things fail to install whether it an agent or patch deployment.
Response from ManageEngine
Hello Kevin,
Can you elaborate on what is to be improved pertaining to reports? I'll also pass your feedback to our UI team to enhance the error texts.

Evaluating in Mid Tier Organization
Reviewed on 2020/12/29
Pros
I have enjoyed how they have broken down the patching and management of the patching. I feel it really allows us to customize the tasks and configurations to our needs. The focus clearly was on patching and was not on just an intuitive console like most software solutions.
I am impressed with the notifications and reporting as well. This makes tracking our configurations and devices much easier.
I have deployed via a Distribution server and through Intune with great success - on a very small scale however. Looking to do mass deployment test soon
Cons
I think the console although simple could be more intuitive and user friendly - only because the amount of configurations and features can seem daunting at first configuration. I think there could be some more instructions or guided tour (tutorial)

Pros
Relatively straightforward to setup and there's a decent amount of functionality built in. Room for expansion but we can get the results we need with what's there currently
Cons

PMP easy update
Reviewed on 2018/10/10
We 1st time implemented the PMP in the production, as we used use Microsoft WSUS services & no third party patches were updated. Once we started using PMP, we could achieve less complaint systems in the production. Guess in another few months every systems will be 100% patched.
Pros
Easy way of deployment patches for client & managing the same.
Cons
Turn around time when we raise any issues with support.
SLA should be set.
