See how PDQ and Automox compare
Automox
Automox relies on an installed agent to patch Windows, macOS, and Linux devices. However, you’ll need to pay per device, and prices increase if you want access to the platform’s more advanced features.
PDQ
PDQ focuses on patch management, inventory management, and software deployment for Windows devices, giving you more granular control. Select between agent-based and agentless solutions, each with budget-friendly pricing structures that give you full access to all of the platform’s advanced features at one low price.
