Good Value for money
What do you like best about the product?
The cost, I was able to use it for one device; most others were wanting a minimum number of devices before you could use the service this made these services expensive. Automox allowed me as a freelance information and cyber security consultant will enable me to practise what I preach and do it automatically patch
What do you dislike about the product?
The interface took a bit getting used too
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Keeping my pc patvhing uptodate
Recommendations to others considering the product:
if you are a small business if a small number of pc's this is a cost effect way to manage patching

Review of Automox
What do you like best about the product?
Automox is easy to use to patch systems and distribute/install applications. I like that you can create/use Worklets (based on PowerShell and Bash scripting) to create, automate, and enforce any custom task on endpoints.
What do you dislike about the product?
The interface has a basic design. It also seems a little slow when navigating from one screen to the next, as the application displays a "Loading ..." icon in the middle of the screen.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
During the Pandemic, most of the company's users started working from home. In addition, our company was expanding to different geographical regions, and an on-prem patching solution was not meeting our needs anymore. Also, not every user connected back to the office via VPN to receive system patches. We needed a centrally managed clould based patching solution that ensures all the corporate systems are up to date on patches.
Highly recomended
What do you like best about the product?
We were originally attracted to Automox due to their ability to patch third party programs, but stay because of the ease of use and the ease of rescheduling updates.
What do you dislike about the product?
The cost can be high if you want to utilize the commandlets.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Third party patching, reporting, and changing patch schedules are so much easier than other programs. If a critical patch is released, it's trivial to change the settings to patch it ASAP.
Painless Update tool for Windows. Little bit of Pain for Mac
What do you like best about the product?
Automox provides clear information about what applications require updating, what applications are failing updating, and why, as well as a schedule for installing and updating new patches. You can use very basic PowerShell or bash commands to create your own scripts to install updates, or you can use any of the scripts the Automox team has created, or any that the community has created.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are issues with updating and restarting. Sometimes a computer restarts, but the console doesn't update. It also has issues reconnecting to Macs running ARM chips. This has been addressed recently, but we still see some computers not connecting. This is a minor issue as often another reboot will reconnect.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As we are 100% work from home, we were unable to keep computers on the latest security patches for both OS's and applications. Additionally, the cost to have someone manually update machines is beyond our capability. By utilizing Automox, we have increased our security without impacting our users and have substantially cut our time spent updating machines considerably.
Capabele platform that does the job!
What do you like best about the product?
The multi-platform support for Windows, MacOS and Linux from a single console combined with agent based patching does make it a very capable platform that reduces software vulnerabilities rapidly.
What do you dislike about the product?
The list of build-in supported third party software could be better compared to others but you can work around this with worklets
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Software related vulnerabilities, configuration changes and multi-platform maintance of devices time and place independently.
Painless patch management automation
What do you like best about the product?
Super easy setup and UI, 80% of the patching for 20% of the work
What do you dislike about the product?
Needs better reporting, could use some more polish, more admin options
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Patch management, vulnerability management
Patching with Automox is simple and painless
What do you like best about the product?
Love the product's ease of deployment and timely response from support along with the proactive approach of Automox and the Automox Alive Community.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not much of anything except a more robust reporting section. Excellent product for dealing with today's Work From Home environment.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Patch and compliance when many employees are working from home. Easy to deploy and maintain.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Automox seems very interested in improving the product by rolling out new or improved features which can be tracked by viewing the product roadmap. Besides standard patching, you can check for and deploy required software and apply non standard changes using the scripting possibilities built on PowerShell called Worklets. Being totally a cloud based solution is a plus. There is timely response from support along with the active Automox Alive Community.
Automox Review
What do you like best about the product?
A Simple and intuitive web portal that makes a hard job easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
No custom reporting at this stage. Being able to customize for different audiences would be great.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Great Product. Makes managing fleet patches and security posture a breeze.
Great Patch Management That Actually Works
What do you like best about the product?
Patch management is easy, granular and actually patches the systems! Reporting then gives a good overview of where your environment is at patch-wise. Amazing tools and great reliability. Better than any other solution we have tried.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some actions (like software deployment) does require some scripting and in the event of complex tasks, a lot of scripting.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Software deployment and Patch management are the main issues we are resolving, though reporting/visibility are a part of that as well. Being cloud managed means we can access our patch management anywhere, and it also means our remote machines and laptops do not have to be in the office to enforce patch policies.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Really consider what kind of management you need in your organization. If the concern is enforcing patch policies and manual approval of updates - plus great visibility and reporting on patch status - then Automox is a great fit. If you are looking for a solution that just has a bunch of programs pre-built in for new software deployment, know the Automox can do software deployment well, but does require scripting know how and really doesn't have a lot of "built-in" options.
