About SolarWinds Patch Manager
Patch management software designed for quickly addressing software vulnerabilities. SolarWinds® Patch Manager simplifies many of the steps in the patch management process—from research and scheduling, to deployment and reporting—to help save you time and make it easier to keep your servers and workstations patched and compliant. SolarWinds Patch Manager works with and extends your Microsoft WSUS and SCCM deployments with pretested, prebuilt updates for Microsoft products and third-party applications from a central point of control. SolarWinds Patch Manager makes it easier to manage patches on virtual desktops and servers with the ability to patch offline machines, organize virtual machines into groups, and inventory virtual machines across your enterprise.
