Unified Endpoint Management (UEM)
Unified endpoint management for Windows, macOS and Linux: full inventory, patching, software deployment, remote control and policy from one console.
An agent for Windows, Linux and macOS that shows everything about each computer and lets IT act on it remotely: restart it, lock it, install software, fix it, or join a live session.
Also called
unified endpoint management, endpoint management, RMM, remote monitoring and management, remote desktop management, remote support, session recording, file transfer, patch management, MDM alternative.
What it does
- Inventory Hardware and software for every endpoint.
- Patch management Schedule, deploy and report.
- Policy & configuration Security baselines enforced.
- Remote actions Lock, restart, shut down and run commands on any endpoint.
- Posture to NAC Non-compliant devices get limited access.
- Remote workforce Works wherever the device is.
- Windows, Linux & macOS agent Granular asset and health data from every computer.
- Remote control Restart, shut down, lock, change password and run commands.
- Software deployment Install and uninstall packages remotely.
- Live sessions Watch live activity, record sessions and transfer files.
- Magic link Send a one-time link to join a user’s session.
- Logs & chat Collect logs and chat with the user from the console.
Common concerns
- Patching tracked in spreadsheets
- Automated deployment and reporting
- Lost laptop
- Remote lock and password change
- Posture checked separately from access
- Posture decides network access
Questions and answers
- Does it replace our MDM?
- It can. Or start by using it for patching and posture alongside what you have.
- Which operating systems are supported?
- Windows, Linux and macOS, through a lightweight agent.
- Can IT see what the user sees?
- Yes. Watch live activity, record the session, transfer files and chat, with a magic link for quick access.
- What does NV-UEM manage?
- Windows, Linux and macOS computers: hardware and software inventory, health, performance, patches and remote actions, in one console.
- How is it deployed?
- A lightweight agent is installed on each computer. It works in the office and remotely, wherever the device is connected.
- Which remote actions are available?
- Restart, shut down, lock, change password, run commands, install and uninstall packages and transfer files.
- Can IT support users remotely?
- Yes. IT can watch live activity, record the session, chat with the user and send a one-time magic link to start a session.
- Does it collect logs?
- Yes. Logs can be collected from endpoints for troubleshooting and investigations.
- How does patching work?
- Patches are scheduled, deployed and reported per device and group, with compliance shown in the console.
- How does it work with NV-ZT-NAC?
- Device posture from NV-UEM feeds access decisions: a computer that falls out of compliance gets limited access until it is fixed.
- Is activity monitoring intrusive?
- Monitoring follows policies you define and can be limited to what your regulations and internal rules allow.
Often deployed with
- Zero Trust NAC Knows every device the moment it connects and decides where it may go. Works with any switch, any hypervisor and any mix of enforcement, without changing your network.
- Vulnerability Assessment & Management Scans everything you run, from network gear and servers to laptops, websites and applications, and tells you what to fix first and exactly how.
- Zero Trust VPN / SASE Lets remote staff, contractors and partners reach only the apps they need, never your whole network, after identity, MFA and device checks pass.
Guides
- Endpoint control for hybrid teams Keeping every laptop and server patched, known and supportable, wherever it is.
