One of the easiest to use management systems yet powerful as well

Overall: We went from having a few devices in a few close locations to 100’s of devices located across multiple states. Having a reliable and simple way (Endpoint Central) to manage these devices has made my job 1000 times easier.

According to an IDC Enterprise Endpoint Management Survey, more than 70% of enterprises use Android smartphones, and more than 45% of enterprises use Apple phones. Enterprises no longer run only with desktops and laptops.

Endpoint Central converges endpoint management by managing and securing endpoints while handling your ITAM software needs from a single console. Tanium does not. Have a look at prominent peer review sites, and you’ll see our customers calling us an IT admin’s Swiss Army knife.

Rugged devices

Not rugged enough to manage rugged devices?

With the explosion of rugged devices being used across various industries like hospitality, retail, oil and gas, education, and health care, they simply can’t be left unmanaged.

Tanium does not have the capability to manage rugged devices. Endpoint Central has OEM partnerships with more than 25 rugged device manufacturers.

Browsers are the new endpoints, and Endpoint Central knows it

Browsers are the gateways through which enterprise employees access their workplace and business applications. In a way, you can reimagine them as endpoints.

With Endpoint Central, you can control the websites your employees can access, run mission-critical applications in a trusted browser, prevent phishing attacks, impose download restrictions, manage add-ons, and much more.

Tanium does not offer a comprehensive endpoint security solution with browser management features like us.
