Shavlik Joins Microsoft System Center Alliance Program
December 2013 by Marc Jacob
Shavlik, a business unit of LANDesk Software, and a recognized leader in agentless patch management capabilities, announced today that it has joined the Microsoft System Center Alliance Program. As the first company to provide third-party patches to Microsoft System Center 2012 R2 Configuration Manager customers, Shavlik has continued to refine its popular SCUPdates product and add supplementary products to enhance the features of Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager. By joining the System Center Alliance, Shavlik is reaffirming its commitment to its customers.
Building on Shavlik’s recognised expertise in patch detection and deployment, SCUPdates has the ability to extend the reach of System Center Configuration Manager beyond current Microsoft products to patch today’s most attacked applications. SCUPdates takes advantage of the System Center Configuration Manager workflow and does not require the installation of an application or agent for deployment. By syncing with Shavlik SCUPdates, System Center Configuration Manager customers have a single System Center Configuration Manager workflow for deploying updates for Microsoft operating systems, Microsoft applications, and non-Microsoft applications.
In addition to SCUPdates, Shavlik has products to patch the datacenter, track and manage software licenses, and manage mobile devices that are designed to enhance the end-user experience and expand System Center Configuration Manager beyond its current feature set.
A free trial version of SCUPdates and other Shavlik products is available for evaluation on the Shavlik website and through select resellers.
