ManageEngine Patch Connect Plus is a specialized solution designed to extend Microsoft SCCM and Intune by automating the patch management process for over 600 third-party applications. It addresses the limitations of native SCCM/Intune patching, enabling IT teams to detect, approve, and deploy updates for non-Microsoft software directly from the SCCM or Intune console. The platform supports application management, custom script deployment, and comprehensive reporting, streamlining workflows and reducing manual effort. Patch Connect Plus also allows for the creation of custom deployment templates, integration of CVE-based patching, and automated publishing of newly detected applications. Its multi-application support and automation capabilities make it suitable for organizations seeking to enhance endpoint security and maintain compliance with minimal administrative overhead.
