Top 5 benefits of integrating SCCM with Patch Connect Plus

  Automated third party patching

Limited patching capabilities using Microsoft SCUP can be expanded to patch all third party applications with ease. The whole patch management cycle is automated using Patch Connect Plus as the certification addition to the trusted vendor store is also done automatically along with the deployment done automatically of available patches.

  Use your existing SCCM console

After a seamless integration, you'll be using your existing console for patch management of third party applications being used previously for deploying other configurations to your desktops. Therefore, you need not learn about a new console.

  Allows selection of applications

If you only want to patch significant applications, instead of all applications, PCP allows such provision of selection of applications inside the SCCM console. This makes the process of patching all the more convenient for the administrator.

  No need to set up infrastructure

As you would've already have an infrastructure set up for SCCM, you wouldn't want to setup infrastructure for managing only third party patches. We allow you to do just that, by using SCCM infrastructure to patch these non-Microsoft applications too.

  Out-of-the-box features

Patch Connect Plus provides various out-of-the-box features to improve operational efficiency for the administrators. These features include patching of applications when they are not being used by clients, special patching for Java updates and sending notifications to customers on the satus of patches deployed.

Now integrate ManageEngine Patch Connect Plus with SCCM and enjoy all the benefits stated above.
