Great protection, good privacy, and helpful support
The only thing I would like is a way to open the email that is going to quarantine. Based on the level of security, they cannot open the email to check the message. Even for the administrator, you have to create a security copy to be sent, which will lock the log support. It's not easy for an admin to check and decide if the email is good or not. That is the only thing that I'm seeing could be improved. Basically, ESET doesn't have the ability to let the administrator release an email showing the message on the email. It's not possible. If you want to have an email review, you have to select an option to send a copy. In the way that they designed the system, for security, they are not letting anyone even have the admin privileges to make this happen. Privacy is at a really high level.

Keeping servers updated while encountering documentation issues and time zone delays in support
In terms of improvement, I would recommend better documentation. During the time I used it, there were issues with up-to-date patching, and the documentation around those specific errors was quite confusing. Sometimes I had to uninstall, reinstall, or engage technical support, which took a lot of time. It would be helpful if the documentation could easily help us fix bugs on our own.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"We are close to having 99% or 98% detection."
"The most valuable features are the precision of detection and the level of customization of the policy."
"It's a trustworthy solution that is easy to learn."
"It is very easy to use, as well as extremely efficient and accurate."
"I have found the interface and ease of use valuable features. Additionally, it is very easy to patch VMs and other systems, such a Linux. We are able to do patches even without the internet manually."
"The most valuable features are device management and support for upgrading applications."
"This is an extremely robust product, very easy to use, as well as extremely efficient and accurate, and most of our customers just set it and forget it while it does all of the automatic patching month after month."
"Ivanti Patch is far better than other solutions."
"The technical support from Ivanti is good."
"This product helps us to create a streamlined process and it is working as expected."
"Both in terms of features and operations, this is a good solution."
 

Cons

"It's not easy for an admin to check and decide if the email is good or not."
"The specific domain file for Apache needs to be well-defined."
"I tried to be a partner of Ivanti and, from this vantage point, the quotes are, perhaps, a bit high."
"It's a difficult configuration because you need to install many servers in a location, and you have to install the primary server in the main location."
"Ivanti Neurons Patch for Intune needs to improve stability. We had issues with patching."
"Ivanti Patch could be improved with better integration with other cloud solutions."
"The reports have to show the compliance level of the patching, which Ivanti does not provide."
"There are times when there is an update that causes some issues. These issues should be sorted out before the release."
"Customers sometimes ask about non-existent features, and we pass these requests on to Ivanti."
"I would like to have better support for the application."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution provides affordable pricing for medium sized industries."
"The solution is expensive compared to other products."
"The license can get expensive if you have a lot of nodes."
"The solution is affordable."
"For the one that works with SCCM, it is relatively inexpensive at $8 USD per node, yearly. The standalone product has two versions; the one that patches servers is about $45 USD annually and the version that patches workstations is about half that price at $22 USD."
"While the price is a bit high, it may be equitable with the features one gets with the product, such as that involving the interface."
