How does PDQ Connect help IT teams manage patch compliance across departments?

PDQ Connect simplifies patch compliance by automating deployments, tracking outcomes, and generating real-time, customizable reports. IT teams can also create custom groups — such as by department or location — to tailor patching schedules and visibility.

Is PDQ Connect FedRAMP compliant or eligible for state-level contracts?

PDQ Connect is not FedRAMP certified. However, it is well suited for state and local agencies managing distributed devices and limited resources. Federal teams requiring on-prem deployment or additional control may prefer PDQ Deploy & Inventory.
