JumpCloud Patch Management
Louisville, Colorado, United States
What it is
JumpCloud Patch Management gives administrators a central console for scheduling and controlling operating system, browser, and application updates. Teams can use ready-made automatic policies or create their own schedules, delay operating system updates for testing, arrange deployment rings, and set required installation windows for users. Supported operating systems include Windows, macOS, iOS, and Linux, though Linux patch management is limited to Ubuntu. A universal browser policy can schedule and enforce Chrome updates on macOS, Windows, and Linux. Windows application patching includes automatic policies, end-user notifications, and a centralized view of applications and versions. The JumpCloud App Catalog names apps including Slack, Zoom, Google Drive, Firefox, 1Password, and Adobe Acrobat Reader. Administrators need the JumpCloud agent running on macOS, Windows, and Linux devices; macOS 11.0 and later devices also need JumpCloud MDM enrollment. The cloud service has a 30-day trial and no free plan. Pricing is listed from $9/user/mo (annual).
