Replace WSUS with our Windows Update Management

 

  • Replaces WSUS completely, also for Office 365
  • Reduced susceptibility to errors
  • Less installation effort

 

Efficient and reliable update management

acmp Windows Update Management is our software solution for automated Microsoft updates that is tailored to the customer's individual needs. Nevertheless, it optimizes holistically: in the areas of security, efficiency and functionality.

  • Client-specific updates: acmp Windows Update Management only loads exactly the patches that the respective client requires
  • Reduced bandwidth: IT systems are no longer occupied by unnecessary updates
  • Automated implementation increases security: Windows Update Management makes update processes predictable and transparent
  • Saved costs: automation means significantly fewer personnel resources are required

The most important features at a glance

More capacity

Automated release according to distribution rings reduces the workload of the IT department.

More possibilities

Completely dispensing with WSUS saves costs as well as human and technical resources.

Driver distribution

Granular distribution of selected third-party catalogs with drivers. (Dell, Lenovo, HP)

Fast updates

WSUS performs updates once a month - acmp Windows Update Management, however, performs updates daily.

Check updates for functionality

With acmp Windows Update Management, individual release rings can be defined and Windows updates can be distributed to test systems in different subnetworks: This ensures that everything works according to your requirements before you install the updates on the other clients.

Make patches available individually

Clients do not receive the entire update file, which is several gigabytes in size, but the individual patches required. This saves valuable bandwidth and reduces the installation time enormously. Additional feature: You control which patches should be available in which file repositories and in which languages.

Generate daily updates

Conventional solutions are dependent on regularly provided update files from Microsoft. acmp Windows Update Management, on the other hand, is always as up-to-date as the original WSUS server. This allows administrators to react to threats and exploits on a daily basis - either fully automatically or under your control.

Automate tidying up

The practical clean-up function not only generates a clear update status, but also automatically frees up unnecessarily used storage space. This simple feature frees up important capacity in IT, which it can then invest in its actual core tasks.

Group computers

acmp Windows Update Management allows the flexible grouping of PCs based on the exact characteristics selected by an administrator. In this way, computers are dynamically sorted into containers, eliminating the need for manual assignment. This option significantly speeds up internal IT processes.

Generate reports

acmp's comprehensive reporting function generates readable reports. These not only serve as a basis for controlling, but are also necessary for audits and certifications. This feature also underlines the comprehensive functionality of acmp Windows Update Management and ensures time and cost savings.

Third-party catalogs with drivers

Distribute third-party catalogs with drivers in a targeted manner without cloud or WSUS connection - ideal for companies that rely on local control and maximum security. Dell, Lenovo and HP are supported, including granular selection according to driver types and classifications. The test and release mechanisms from the Windows Update Management module are also used here. Full integration into the acmp ecosystem enables a consistent user experience - for rapid adaptation and sustainable cost and security benefits.

I can definitely recommend acmp to anyone who is looking for a holistic IT solution and currently lacks an overview.

We have noticed a real benefit in our day-to-day work - we save time. As a result, the resources gained can be used in other projects.

We would have to install all the software and network drives for the users manually. The fact that we can now distribute entire batches at the touch of a button saves us at least ten to twelve hours of work a month, just for the roll-outs.
