Automox serves as a backbone tool for my company. We rely on Automox for application and operating system patching, which ensures that our machines remain compliant and secure. We also take advantage of its reporting and scripting features, which enable us to execute specific tasks on endpoints as necessary. My team utilizes the remote access feature, which is very helpful for troubleshooting and providing remote assistance. Regarding how Automox fits into my team's daily workflow, it is very easy to remediate issues and quickly make custom policies for each server if needed. It is nice to have one dashboard to manage all of our servers.
Automox is one of the best automatic patching management solutions that I have ever used in my entire organization. Automox makes managing and administrating all of my devices so much easier, especially in the IT department. Anything that is easy to use takes a load off my lap and is a bonus. It is very affordable and something I definitely need in my daily routine. A specific example of how I use Automox in my daily routine is as a patching tool to maintain control of certain updates and whether to apply them immediately or wait in case there are issues with said patches, regardless of whether they are from Microsoft or other entities. I also use it for the remote assistance feature. I use Automox for automated patch management by ensuring endpoint security across my organization. I also use it to address vulnerabilities by streamlining OS and software updates while reducing manual processes and security risks. I have used Automox to manage Windows and Linux devices, enforcing compliance and maintaining system integrity with minimal downtime through centralized and cloud-based automation.
My main use case for Automox is patch management where we recently deployed it to manage approximately 100 endpoints across our organization. The IT team primarily uses it for patch management, asset inventory, and remote desktop support. Automox plays a crucial role in maintaining system security and visibility. Automox is used on a daily basis to support staff efficiently, streamline troubleshooting, ensure all systems remain up to date, and reduce downtime.
My main use case for Automox is automated patch management for our whole organization, managing and patching our endpoints. Automox has helped us reduce security vulnerabilities with automated patching being deployed with minimal manual intervention. This has helped us reduce the number of vulnerabilities that are susceptible for an attacker to exploit. Automox has also been easy to deploy with a large scope of endpoints across many operating companies in our organization. A specific example of how Automox helped me with automated patch management is that it was easy to create and configure policies and schedule patching that is done automatically.
Our main use case for Automox is that we as a company need to be cybersecurity plus compliant, so we need to ensure that our devices are patched regularly. Having over 1,000 devices, making sure all those devices are updated manually is very difficult. Automox helps to push updates across the organization via one portal, and it can allow updates to be pushed through an agent that then updates all devices affected. This allows our Tenable reports to be in SLA standards. My main use case covers that we also use Automox for patch remediation and remote support. Unlike most other platforms, we can use Automox to patch all our devices regardless of the operating system. Our previous RMM platform was limited in this aspect, and Automox not only filled this gap but did so at a lesser price.

Having over 1,000 devices, making sure all those devices are updated manually is very difficult. Automox allows me to push updates across the organization via one portal. I then can follow updates to be pushed through an agent that updates all devices affected. This allows our Tenable reports to be in SLA standards. A specific example of when Automox helped me manage a critical update or compliance requirement is when I was able to update browsers like Edge and Chrome, which have updates every few days, automatically. No more emails to ask people to update Edge or Chrome. Display drivers and Dell drivers are not visible for users. Having Automox update them makes it much easier for users as not all users are technical elite. Automox is also used for patch remediation and remote support.
I mainly use Automox to manage updates and automate tasks on company devices. In my day-to-day uses, I primarily use it for updating devices and reviewing patch management. I focus on keeping Windows and macOS devices up to date manually. Another daily example is using Automox to automatically check for devices that need updating, such as installing security patches without manual intervention. Every morning, I check Automox and it shows which device got updated overnight, and I review and approve anything that is pending.

We use Automox to maintain the software on all our computers. We were using Qualys before and we're still using it, but we found Qualys to be a little bit lacking since it wasn't really eliminating all the vulnerabilities. We have been using it for years and it's almost as if we still have the same vulnerability count. We wanted to try something new with Automox in that most of the vulnerabilities are taken care of just by updating the applications that we use on our computers. We have not used Automox's scripting capabilities for automating routine tasks such as software deployment and configuration changes yet, but we're probably not going to see a massive need for that since we don't have many in-house applications or a development team.

We are a municipality, so we are not a traditional business. We've got it deployed throughout the city. We've got it on roughly 120 servers. We've also got about 1,400 other endpoints. So, there are roughly 1,300 computers, and those computers are also police vehicles, EMS vehicles, and fire vehicles. We are continuously monitoring them and patching them to make sure that they stay up to date and meet all the criteria for compliance. Obviously, EMS has to worry about HIPAA, and police have to worry about CJIS. So essentially, we're making sure that we stay within the guidelines of compliance. It is web-based, so we are using the version that they're currently on.

My primary use cases for Automox are for patching, configuration management, and support. Our help desk receives tickets and we use Automox to create solutions that the help desk can use in an automated fashion rather than having to manually do the work. We have created ways to help them work faster.
We use Automox as part of one of our product offerings, our server management, where we use it for patch management. As concerns the Atlantic.Net side, when we're selling to the marketplace, we sell mostly public cloud with dedicated hosts, or cloud VMs. We also sell hybrid cloud and private cloud, as well as co-location when that unique need arises. Obviously, with so many servers out there, our clients are very big into compliance, examples being HIPAA, PCI, NIST, ISO certifications and the like. We need to be able to provide patch management and that's how we utilize Automox. That's what got us started looking for this back in 2017. We needed something as our in-house solution was not working very well in terms of what we wanted: visibility and up-to-date patching. At that point, we decided to explore new open source options versus what is out there for purchase. This is how we stumbled across Automox and started using it with our clients. We never truly made this kind of functionality into a formal offering before settling on Automox. It was more on an urgent-need basis. But, once we adopted Automox, we made it a formalized offering.
I work for B/Net Systems. We are a managed services provider, which is outsourced IT. We have a lot of clients, mostly in the Washington, D.C., Metropolitan area. We do as much or as little of their tech work as needed. A lot of the work that we do, really the bread and butter, is what we call monthly maintenance. That is making sure that all the computers are healthy each month. This involves a lot of software patching, making sure there is free disk space, ensuring there isn't anything in the error logs, etc. Automox helps us manage the software update part. It is really great because it manages software updates for every piece of software on the computer.
