Managing application updates just got easier with Hexnode UEM! We’re excited to announce key additions to Windows Patches and Updates management, enabling you to simplify and enhance how updates are handled across your organization’s devices. With the new App Updates policy, you can now efficiently manage patches and updates for all your applications, ensuring they remain secure and up-to-date.

How to Get Started?

Head over to Policies > Windows > Patches & Updates > App Updates and start configuring your policies today.

What’s New?

Maintenance Window

You can now define a maintenance window for application updates to ensure minimal disruption to your work. You can choose one of these options:

  • Outside of device’s Active Hours: Perform updates outside the device’s active hours.
  • Set a Maintenance Window: Schedule specific days and times for updates.

The maintenance window must be at least 4 hours.

Auto Update Preferences

Choose how app updates are applied:

  1. Update All Apps: Automatically update all applications on the device.
  2. Update Targeted Apps Only: Focus on specific apps as per your app update policy.
  3. Scan for Updates Only: Detect available updates without applying them automatically.

Why It Matters?

  • Reduce security risks with timely updates.
  • Minimize downtime by scheduling updates during non-critical hours.
  • Gain flexibility to manage updates based on your organization’s needs.
