  Devices which have not checked in within X days/Weeks/Months. Good for device cleanup and compliance

  Ability to schedule reports for delivery via email. Great for management, etc.

  Report based on specific CVE. List system at risk of the CVE (Crowdstrike will do this ad-hoc for the critical vulns)

  
  
  

Interesting! Besides system impacted with the specific CVE, what else would you expect to see in the CVE specific report?

I would like to see a build your own report engine. Show me a listing of all the data types in automox and let me arrange or show how I want (and then let me choose how to show that data, text, table or graphically).

CVE publish date and severity

Would be great to run a custom report to list machines of a specific windows 10 version such as 1703.

We’re working on that. Phase 1 is more canned reports and Phase 2 is a full reporting/searching engine where you can save queries and reports and share them with others via some sort of import/export. That way people can share stuff on the community for others to make use of, similar to the worklets. The tough part is figuring out how to prevent people from accidentally creating costly reports that bring the database to its knees. Maybe offline/background report generation so that we can mitigate that, rather than annoying restrictions on which fields and objects you can and can’t report on.

At min, sort by last connected via the Devices screen. Allow for mass device clean-up.

Some of my ideas. My insider knowledge knows some are in the works already, but these are some of my nice-to-haves.

• General
  
  
  
  
  
  • Executive summary – charts, basic counts; matrix with total devices, total outstanding patches, maybe patches deployed in last 30 days
  
  
  
  • More detailed exec summary – charts, counts by OS, patch severity (maybe the counts in a matrix for easy export)
  
  
  
  • Admin view for console activity (actions taken by Automox logins, group create/delete, who kicked a manual policy deployment)
  
  
  
  • Holistic concerns report – what does Automox feel we should warn the customers about/encourage them to do regarding Automox console config (devices not in a patch policy, patches not in a policy, etc.)?
  
  
  
  
  
  



• Devices
  
  
  
  
  
  • (general device reports could just be filtered on Devices page and use the Export button)
  
  
  
  • All non-compliant systems; pending patches by severity, failed patch attempts (or didn’t patch X days after policy last enforced)
  
  
  
  • Workstations missing updates and/or are vulnerable
  
  
  
  • Device health dashboard and details (basic counts/charts with detailed device listing under) for all devices not connected for X days, devices missed patch since X days, needs attention, agent unsupported (basically, devices that need attention by desktop support)
  
  
  
  
  
  



• Software/vulnerability
  
  
  
  
  
  • CVE/KB lookup - search/dropdown for CVE(s); show basics about patch, devices with, devices pending, policy exists to cover it
  
  
  
  • Software lookup – drop down for app family, app version; show basic app info, devices with app, devices pending install, policy exists to cover it
  
  
  
  
  
  



• Policy/Group
  
  
  
  
  
  • Listing of all policy names, description, type, assignment, basic settings
  
  
  
  • Policy details – drop down for policy, patches covered, devices assigned
  
  
  
  • Patches not covered by any (active) policies (what are we not targeting?)
  
  
  
  • Detailed policy results; drop down for policy and run time/dates; show success/fail counts, any info that would help troubleshooting AND provide confidence that something did run
  
  
  
  • Resultant policy coverage by group; pick a group and show what should occur on that group based on the policies assigned
  
  
  
  
  
  

i’d like to see a report that tracks the success of individuatl patches. i hope the screenshot appears.

Thanks for the suggestion @kkujubu and that is a report we’d love to build. In the meantime all of that info is in the Activity Log, which can be exported, it would just take some filtering and Excel magic to render it into the format you’ve shown.

nic, thank you for your response. i’ve been exporting the activity log and filtering via excel and word. i feel the pain of doing this. that’s why i am hoping the magic can be incorporated in Automox. is there any good hints, tips, tricks to get this done in the meanwhile?

You could check in with our support folks on this one, as I know they’ve helped some customers with custom reports such as yours, and they might have some pointers. At the very least they might be able to help automate your process more so that it’s less work for you to generate.

I would love to be able to have the Overview History view but allow me to set the dates and what to display. I would rather see this over weeks or months than always days. I would like to also see across OS’s.

It would be great to run a report that could list all machines with required software (or out of compliance), as well as a list of machines with an installation of software determined to be unauthorized.

Devices that failed to update x amount of times. This will enable the team to investigate the device that are falling behind.
