Action1
Product Summary
Action1 is a cloud-based management system for internal IT departments and managed service providers. The platform features a typical monitoring and management tool, but the solution mostly highlights its patch management capabilities.
Use Cases
- Patch management:
Action1 poised its patch management capabilities as its cornerstone feature, allowing continuous patch compliance for servers and workstations. - Vulnerability discovery:
The management and monitoring tool provides real-time vulnerability discovery, reducing ransomware risks for the IT infrastructure. - Easy deployment:
Technicians can quickly deploy applications and software to their endpoints.
Shortcomings
- Software compatibility:
The Action1 agent is strictly Windows. The core platform requires a Windows machine (Windows 7 or later) to function. - Navigation:
More advanced features are buried within the platform, making it hard for technicians to locate them. - Reporting:
Action1’s reporting section could be improved since there’s currently no way to pull a report per device of all the software installed.

Met de geolocatiemogelijkheden van Cisco Meraki kunnen gebruikers beheerde apparaten lokaliseren en beveiligingsbeleid afdwingen op basis van de locatie van een apparaat.
Tekortkomingen

Het zou handig zijn als het platform meer flexibiliteit had om de gebruikersinterface (UI) aan te passen aan de huisstijl van uw bedrijf. - Loggegevens:
In het klantenportaal ontbreekt bepaalde noodzakelijke logboekinformatie, waardoor het voor technici een uitdaging is om problemen snel te analyseren en op te lossen. - Beperkte integraties:
