Effective patch management boosts network security and enhances compliance reporting
The product is currently on-premise, and I think the cloud option is still yet to come. If a customer has their own cloud, we can host it there, but the SaaS model is not available, and most companies are requesting the SaaS model for patch management. GFI LanGuard is a good competitor in the market and is popular in my region. We get many leads and numerous requirements for patch management, but most companies ask for the SaaS model, which creates challenges. Third-party app integration needs to be increased in GFI LanGuard. It shouldn't be limited to 30 or 40 applications because there are many applications being used. Instead of manually patching everything, if those patches are included in the product, it would be easier for automatic patching.

Remote sessions have become smoother and now resolve end user issues more comfortably
One feedback I have is regarding the voice feature. Whenever we take a remote session, the voice gets enabled automatically, and we have to mute it from our side. A pop-up asking whether we want to continue with the voice or not would be helpful when accessing a remote session. The audio system could be improved because sometimes we are not aware that we need to unmute the team while taking a remote session. The end user can hear us talking with colleagues, and we sometimes forget that we have unmuted while taking a remote session. If a pop-up appears when we take a remote session with the end user asking us to unmute ourselves, that would be better for us to proceed. When the pop-up appears, we can directly mute ourselves, and the end user will not be able to hear the background noise from the office. Since many colleagues are taking remote sessions and talking to end users simultaneously, there is often significant background noise. Having this pop-up appear when accessing a remote session with the end user would be a helpful update.

Quotes from Members

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

"I was previously using ManageEngine and we switched to GFI LanGuard because it was less expensive, had the same feature sets, and an additional vulnerability assessment feature."
"It is helpful to patch and scan vulnerabilities."
"I like that the solution can block users from unnecessarily putting devices on the network."
"GFI LanGuard has given me a wakeup call in terms of what is happening on endpoint machines."
"The most valuable feature of GFI LanGuard is its email spam feature."

Cons

"GFI LanGuard can improve by adding asset tracking."
"GFI LanGuard could improve the rollback feature. If we have installed the wrong we have had some issues with the rollback function. Additionally, more input from GFI LanGuard for the custom software push install."
"The main reason for considering making the change is because the solution is limited only to the LAN, and I have many remote users who are not on my LAN."
"The stability of GFI LanGuard in the first two years was not good. There were a lot of upgrades and patches simply because it was unstable."
"The version we are using only allows one person to use it at a time and does not allow multi-users."
"When you want to uninstall software from an endpoint, sometimes it becomes very problematic."

"Removing the software is a bit of a complex process. It's not straightforward."
"The price for the license could be improved, as well as the setup could be easier."

"There could be stable connectivity for the product’s current technology."
"There should be an enterprise version of the solution."
"The main issue with the solution is the stability problem arising from network issues."
"I'm not sure if the security is ideal. They could work to improve it."
"I would rate the stability a seven out of ten because every application gets bugs. So, there are some instances where it might be buggy and hanging."
"When a user is engaged in a chat on a system with a remote user present, copying the chat content isn't easy."
