Patch Manager Plus provides a single interface for automating all patch management tasks &#8211; from detecting missing patches to deploying patches &#8211; for Windows, Mac, Linux and third-party applications from a single interface.<\/p>\n<p>Businesses need to quickly patch all applications on their computers, especially third-party applications. However, heterogeneous patch management is a nightmare for IT administrators, especially when they have to apply patches across all three major operating systems &#8211; Windows, Mac, and Linux &#8211; as well as third-party applications. The nightmare is made worse by the need to calculate the health status of each system and identify vulnerable computers, all from a single console.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Most businesses today are run on Linux servers and many designers prefer Mac over Windows,\u201d said Mathivanan Venkatachalam, director of product management at ManageEngine. \u201cSecuring all their computers from vulnerabilities and keeping them up-to-date is something every enterprise dreams of, but that can get complicated with multiple operating systems.
