Who uses
Patch Manager?

“Ecora's Patch Manager centralized and automated our patch management process saving us a significant amount of time and ensuring our system security. Additionally, its great reporting shows both our management and auditors up-to-date details on our patch status.”

Jason Bordun
IT Manager

“Patch Manager allows us to view our environment as a whole so that we can quickly see what patches are deployed, where they are deployed, and when. We then use Patch Manager to apply missing patches and generate the reports that prove to our auditors that we are in compliance with our patch policies.”

Turnor Wootton
Enterprise Architect
People's Bank

“Patch Manager greatly helps us meet the unique needs of our users allowing us to patch systems at certain times so that we don't compromise patient care. Additionally, its comprehensive reporting lets us constantly prove we're in compliance with out HIPAA policy for patch management.”
