ManageEngine, Zoho Corporation’s enterprise IT management division, announced that it has been named to the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Unified Endpoint Management Tools for 2022. The company has also been named to the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Privileged Access Management in 2022.
Gartner evaluated ManageEngine based on the completeness of its vision as well as its ability to execute. Gartner’s recognition, according to ManageEngine, comes on the heels of its efforts to strengthen security across its entire product line, including its enterprise privileged access management (PAM) suite, PAM360, and its flagship unified endpoint management (UEM) solution, Endpoint Central (formerly Desktop Central). ManageEngine’s fortifications are a response to the post-lockdown demands placed on its customers’ IT teams and workforces. Work has become increasingly unscripted, ad hoc, and self-organizing for these users, particularly at the enterprise’s edges, where bad actors pose an unprecedented threat to endpoints, data, and other organizational resources.
Endpoint Central enables organizations to automate device management routines, improve employee experience, and boost productivity from wherever they work, regardless of device, all while ensuring comprehensive security across endpoints, apps, data, and networks. It relieves the burden on security operations centers (SOCs) by eliminating the need for technical expertise for forensic analysis through automated incident investigation and remediation.
“We have been adding security capabilities like anti-ransomware and data loss prevention policies to help enterprises combat today’s rapidly evolving threat landscape. We believe this recognition from Gartner validates our consistent focus on fulfilling customer needs,” said Mathivanan Venkatachalam, vice president of ManageEngine. “We will continue to add enhanced security capabilities like endpoint detection and response and mobile threat defense to our UEM solution to ensure that our customers are equipped to tackle these complex threats.”
Gartner’s recognition comes on the heels of other analysts naming ManageEngine a Leader in three of four IDC MarketScape reports, a Fast Mover in the GigaOm Radar report, and a Strong Performer in The Forrester Wave: Unified Endpoint Management.
“Desktop Central is great when it comes to remote support, patch management, identifying threats, security policies and [much] more,” said a customer experience leader in a Gartner® Peer Insights™ review. “It allows users to approve or decline certain Windows or third-party policies and even schedule them during off hours. It is great when it comes to security and device health overviews. It is the solution that allows any organization to simply and efficiently manage the company’s IT resources in a more organized way.”
