UpdateEXPERT Awards

Quotes from the Judges

"UpdateEXPERT is the only patch management solution to offer an optional client agent, which provides organizations with the flexibility to manage their networks effectively. Supporting Windows NT/2000/XP/Server 2003, SQL Server, Internet Explorer, and a long list of other mission critical applications, UpdateEXPERT enforces an organization's software security policies and provides a way to manage hotfixes, patches and service packs easily."

This software (originally called, "SPQuery") is a patch management solution that supports the following patch management steps.

• Selecting machines to manage (works for servers and workstations alike)


• electing required patches (defines a baseline against which all machines are compared)


• Testing deploy to test machines (if any corrections are required UpdateEXPERT will inform you before the deployment)


• Deploying to production machines


• Issue Conformance Report (comparing results to required patches "baseline")


• Validating patches over time (patches get overwritten and corrupted)
