### "Nice Tool for patching Windows servers"

February 10, 2026

3.0

I like the tool but the support should be more proactive and reactive for emails or via chat window.

Pros

Vulnerability Score and Patch readily available for Zero day vulnerabilities. APD and Manual deployments are very useful for patching during maintenance window.

Cons

Scheduled deployment gets failed and status keeps showing Yet to Apply or In progress after proper configuration. The chat support gets ended abruptly after saying thank you which is very vague.

[System Center](https://www.capterra.com/p/70929/System-Center/)

Ease of use of the product and cost effectiveness.

### "ManageEngine's easy to use VMP"

March 10, 2026

4.0

I am enjoying it so far. Automated patching is so effective. Once its properly set up you needn't worry about those particular patches any longer. Customer support for the app is also on point with the inbuilt chat box which enables you to raise tickets easily.

Pros

Ease of use and effectiveness. UI is so friendly you don't need much training other than a simple walkthrough to get conversant with it.

Cons

Ease of deployment. I wasn't directly involved in the deployment but I know it took some time to fully set it up.

### "Improvement in support channels for on-premise servers"

May 19, 2022

5.0

The tool is very useful. Other brands have been used and by using VMP the best is expected to be able to manage patching in different environments such as being at home, outside the network, networks with limited bandwidth. in concluison a good tool that has many good improvements.

Pros

Ease of equipment management, vulnerability scanning, implementation in private and limited bandwidth networks, distribution servers.

Cons

The generation of very limited reports, knowledge in sql script is needed to be able to generate a personalized one, there are some created but it is very generalized. The support is very bureaucratic, many steps are taken to solve it, in my case I restored the server myself since it had to be the support who had to solve it.

Pros

### "Gain deeper insight into your hardware and software vulnerability"

November 19, 2025

5.0

The software has made patching and vulnerability scanning and modification much easier with "one pane of glass"

Pros

Complete breadth of patch scanning regardless of the Operating System and the ability to schedule patching including the ability to do a wake-on-lan signal to wake up machines for patching. Also the ability to scan for various vulnerabilities and be able to work with both in one software package. Makes managing security and threat management much easier

Cons

Occasional duplication of patch with different CVE numbers for the same patch package. Inability to decline some Linux patches

### "Una solución confiable para la gestión de vulnerabilidades"

November 24, 2025

5.0

Mi experiencia ha sido positiva. Es una herramienta robusta que mejora significativamente la postura de seguridad de la organización. Ha permitido reducir riesgos y mantener los sistemas actualizados de manera eficiente. Aunque hay áreas que pueden optimizarse, en general cumple con lo prometido y aporta valor real.

Pros

Lo que más me ha gustado es la facilidad para gestionar vulnerabilidades desde una sola plataforma. La interfaz es intuitiva, permite automatizar tareas críticas y ofrece reportes detallados que ayudan a tomar decisiones rápidas. Además, la integración con otros productos de ManageEngine es un gran plus.

Cons

En ocasiones, las actualizaciones requieren procesos manuales que pueden ser algo tediosos, especialmente en entornos con alta disponibilidad.

We have been using it for just over a month, and through the platform, we can get an overview of the vulnerabilities in our environment.

Pros

### "Vulnerability Manager Plus"

May 22, 2023

5.0

My experience with ManageEngine and its products is positive. They have excellent support and fully back up their products even if you run a trial version. The Vulnerability Manager Plus was an excellent choice for us as an organization and performs well in an environment that is distributed to 5 locations in Europe.

Pros

Vulnerability Manager Plus is easy to deploy and set up. Quite self-explaining and supported by an extensive support team that responds to any questions you might have via chat. ManageEngine will assist you in setting up a demo if needed. Their products can be installed and tested for 30 days for free and that's something I appreciate when evaluating systems/software

Cons

So far i have not had any negative experiences with Vulnerability Manager Plus

### "Is Manage Engine's Vulnerability Manager Good?"

January 12, 2024

5.0

Overall I would say ManageEngine Vulnerability Manager Plus is a great tool to have and use.

Pros

It is nice to have both patching and vulnerability management in one interface. Being able to see what patches fix what vulnerabilities is also nice and being able to simply click "deploy" to fix the vulnerability is nice.

Cons

I would say the least thing I like is they have a few buttons placed around that simply are not usable unless you pay for other services and integrate them in. I feel like they are doing this to push more of their products on customers.

Works well, I use it daily.

Pros

Vulnerability Manager Plus provided a simple solution to keep all our workstations and servers up to date whether in the US, globally, or in the cloud. It works well and it didn't break the bank.

Cons

Occasionally it can show a vulnerability that doesn't actually exist.

### "Early days but easily lost"

March 22, 2023

3.0

A great tool but better workflows required. Also, simpler bespoke reporting without having to dive into SQL.

Pros

I like that this system shines a strong light on the potential deficiencies of our infrastructure, showing tiered levels of threats across endpoints.

Cons

I feel that the workflow of tracking where you're at in terms of patches in process against what the "Threats-Software Vulnerabilities" is listing confusing. I feel constantly lost in what I still need to patch, what's failed, why it's failed and what I need to do to fix it. Even small things like being able to right-click links to 'open in another window' (which would help keep organized) is not possible, so you have to lose where you're at. If the Software Vulnerabilities list had an indicator column to show you're patching this entry, that'd be useful.

Reason for choosing ManageEngine Vulnerability Manager Plus

Time constraints and price.
