"ManageEngine Desktop Central is a comprehensive tool to centralize your endpoint management across Windows, macOS and Linux machines," said an IT security manager in a Gartner Peer Insights review. "It offers operating system and third-party patch management with automation capabilities to test and deploy patches. Desktop Central provides great visibility via standard and custom reports, and great support services."[1]
