RippleTech partners with St. Bernard Software to bring our customers an award winning patch management solution. UpdateEXPERT® gives you the security, flexibility and scalability you need to manage your networks and keep them at optimum performance.

UpdateEXPERT® supports the following patch management steps:

• Select machines to manage (works for servers and workstations alike)
• Select required patches (defines a baseline against which all machines are compared)
• Deploy to test machines (if any corrections are required UpdateEXPERT informs you before the deployment)
• Deploy to production machines
• Issue Conformance Report (compare results to required patches "baseline")
• Validate patches over time (patches can get overwritten and corrupted)

Designed for the IT administrator, UpdateEXPERT automates the process of researching patch histories and co-dependencies. Deployment scripting is unnecessary, and you do not need to know where patches are applicable. UpdateEXPERT uses St. Bernard Software's independent patch management metadatabase.

This metadatabase instructs UpdateEXPERT how to validate, install and research thousands of patches. It is the result of research, deployment testing and quality assurance testing of all patches using UpdateEXPERT. Since UpdateEXPERT does not use publicly sourced data, St. Bernard Software controls every aspect of this intelligent solution.
