You might want to look at this product as well:
http://www.kace.com/products/kbox1000.php.  I just learned that
Microsoft awarded KBOX "Most Innovative Product" Award at the Microsoft
Management Summit in San Diego.  There will be an official press
announcement from the show by tomorrow.

Subject: [SECURITY] Patch management



Anyone have a patch management package that they like? 

 

We are using WSUS for our windows boxes and this works great for windows
security and office updates. We are looking for something that can
assist in the management of such applications as acrobat.

 

Products to look at? Ones to avoid like the plague?
