LANSWEEPER VS. ADMINARSENAL INSTALL
It will search your network for any computer with let's say any chrome install not up to date to the latest version.
LANSWEEPER VS. ADMINARSENAL SOFTWARE
I think I've had about 5 install failures out of probably 3,000+ software deployments and those were quickly remedied and failed because of compatibility.Īlso, if you do get PDQ Deploy, make sure you also get PDQ Inventory free version and use Dynamic Collections of computers and set up software groups. I pay for PDQ Deploy, but use the free version of PDQ Inventory and it works great keeping all of our software up to date and pushing out Chrome updates to the whole company in 10 minutes or less, while done while they're even working without any errors or complaints from the user. Your best bet is to use a remote support tool like Teamviewer.Īnother +1000 for PDQ Deploy and PDQ Inventory. If it is Windows home most of those remote support tools and things like WinRM will be disabled.

I'd love to be able to get control of this PC without having to lay hands on it. There is no one there to point or click anything, so my only choices are:Ī: use some software like this thread discusses to push TightVNC or ScreenConnect & use that to finish setting it upī: take far too much time & get a bunch of people (with better things to do) involved & go to a difficult-to-reach place to get it working by hand Even wmic doesn't work - "The RPC server is unavailable". It was bought, delivered, plugged in to power & our network, then powered on, that's all. I have one in an inaccessible place, which isn't on our Domain and isn't running any of the Remote services (so no RDC, no VNC, no PSExec, no ScreenConnect, nothing that I know of is available, and PortQuery shows TCP port 135 as "FILTERED") which belongs to us but isn't configured for our Domain. Sorry to hijack this thread, but this is related.ĭo any of these installers allow you to push software to a non-Domain Win10 (Home, I guess?) fresh-out-of-the-box PC? PDQ.com's support has also been great every time I've had an issue or needed help. I'm able to set most of the common apps (web browsers, Flash, Adobe Reader, etc) for auto-update where literally the only input I need to give is to approve the software package for download (and you can even set packages to auto-approve for the complete no-touch approach). We have around 450 machines, and it handles them like a champ.

I have personally been using both for about two years now (been using Enterprise for most of that time). They also have a free tier, which is limited on the automation front, but it's still surprisingly full-featured for a free product.
LANSWEEPER VS. ADMINARSENAL PATCH
It's $1000/year per admin (as opposed to per endpoint, which is how most vendors license patch management tools) for the Enterprise Inventory/Deploy combo. IMHO, it's the best Inventory/Patch Management software for the money you pay.

GPOs are a perfectly fine method of managing updates, but I have to agree with most of the other Spiceheads here and recommend PDQ Inventory/Deploy.
