SecOps Solution delivers the best overall performance: fast scanning, exceptionally low false positives, and patching, configuration audit and remote access in one console. Everything works agentlessly, and the platform runs as SaaS, on-premises or fully air-gapped, on subscription or perpetual licensing.

Patch My PC does one job well, which is keeping third-party Windows apps current. It is not a platform. It needs Configuration Manager or Intune underneath it, finds no vulnerabilities, covers nothing outside Windows and offers no remote access.
