Asset Inventory Asset inventory (for both virtual and physical assets) leverages our innovative agentless technology to thoroughly and dynamically discover and catalog all the assets that IT must manage.
Patch Management Patch Management keeps desktop and server software, for both physical and virtual machines, fully patched and always current with one single patch management tool.
Offline VM Patching Offline VM Patching enables you to scan and patch all of your virtual machines, whether they are online or offline. Offline virtual machines are those that aren’t powered on when a patch scan is performed.
Agentless and agent-based The software is designed to default to an agentless architecture, but in those situations (exceptions to the rule) where agents are necessary, VMware offers extremely flexible and powerful agent software.
Snapshot The snapshot feature allows administrators to take and manage "snapshots" of their VMs (virtual machines) - both immediately before and immediately after patching.
Antivirus Run and maintain antivirus software across all platforms in an integrated fashion, lowering costs and increasing security with integrated antivirus and patch management.
Power Management Wake-on-LAN, bring machines on-line for patching, then power them down, enabling security management during power off cycles to lower management costs.
Configuration Management Manage and control all desktop and server software configurations per company policy, maintaining computers in a known, secure and stable state.
ITScripts ITScripts include support for PowerShell scripting. Numerous pre-built scripts are included to help automate common tasks from configurations to maintenance.
