Your Complete Patch Management Software for Total Security
Atera’s Patch Management Software gives you full control over all your patches from one centralized location. Save time by automating patches for OS, software, and hardware and use robust reporting to stay on top of every agent, ensuring airtight security and control.
Powerful IT Automation
Why spend time on manual patches when you can automate them ahead of time? With Atera’s IT Automation, it’s super easy. You can plan tasks for servers and workstations (like installing Java or Adobe updates) that handle crucial driver updates, and you can configure your preferences when it comes to Microsoft updates with unique IT automation profiles for each customer.
Setting and automating software patch management for both Mac and Windows can also be automated, via our integrations with Chocolatey for Windows and Homebrew for Mac devices. Both options come with a comprehensive list of patches for common software products, from Chrome and Zoom, to Skype, Dropbox and Java. Add these to your IT automation profiles, create software bundles to install or update at scale for each customer, and even exclude certain software patches as necessary.
All in all, Atera’s Automated Patch Management and IT profile functionality empowers you to manage your service more efficiently, eliminating manual and repetitive tasks, and freeing up time to add value elsewhere.
Three Comprehensive Reports
Get powerful reporting to be on top of all your patches at all times, and relay this to your customers during your Quarterly Business Reviews, or whenever you need. Use Atera’s comprehensive reporting to have a continuous birds-eye-view of your IT management.
Patch Search and Deploy: Generate reports based on Microsoft KBs that search for patches based on customer, knowledgebase, description, or agent type, and then install missing patches with a single click, directly from the report. read more
Patch Status Summary: Get a full overview of your patch management. This includes all the agents that are up to date and those that need updating, any existing vulnerabilities displayed per agent, and a full list of missing patches, including how many agents this missing patch impacts overall. read more
Patch and Automation Feedback: It’s a fact of life that not all patches work all the time. But as a busy MSP, you don’t have time to check every patch you make. Get feedback on the automations that didn’t work, so that you can manually make sure that all machines are up to date, or make secure changes to your settings or permissions ahead of the next patching schedule. read more
