Wide verity of scan tools to scan your network and keep track of patch management > > **Cons**: The wide spectrum of scans on a large scale is slow and can get a bit overwhelming and time consuming ----- ### "Languard is what we were needing for a long time.." — 4.0/5 > **Troy** | *5 July 2016* | Banking | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: non-stop ongoing patching and remediation, based on locations, settings. Relays can be set to distribute the load. One single pane of glass for all patch-related information. I heard new version is web based and has multiple administrators. > > **Cons**: Currently one single console user at a time can use the system and will have to RDP into the server, so if you are running a task and another person logs on to the server, it will bring a duplicate session but will not work. The new version is supposed to fix this (hopefully). Also, need faster convergence on reports coming back from agents. > > Languard is a great product to deploy patches throughout distributed environments. Easy interface, user friendly, nice reports, automation and scheduling of tasks, auto remediation, etc. It also serves as a scanner to check for vulnerabilities, not only software-related but miss-configurations and other things that can be mitigated. It can be used to scan everything. ----- ### "GFI is an effective tool for patching software on the network" — 4.0/5 > **Karen** | *31 January 2018* | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: The software provides automated re-starts , patching of third party software and providing a list of users on the domain > > **Cons**: reports are not the best, the next version should have the input for better reporting. It is suggested that this area be looked at. > > lots of man hours saved using this application to patch machines across the network ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/41855/gfi-languard?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/41855/gfi-languard) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
