Bigfix

BigFix is an endpoint management and security platform that automates the discovery, management, and remediation of devices across various operating systems. It enables organizations to manage patching, compliance, software distribution, and asset inventory from a single console, ensuring devices are secure and up-to-date.

About Bigfix

BigFix was created in 1997 to address the need for efficient endpoint management and security. It provided a centralized platform to automate the discovery, management, and remediation of devices across various operating systems. The platform gained traction for its ability to streamline patching, compliance, software distribution, and asset inventory. IBM acquired BigFix in 2010 to enhance its IT service management offerings.

Strengths of BigFix include its comprehensive endpoint management capabilities, real-time visibility, and automation features. Weaknesses may involve its complexity and potential need for extensive training. Competitors include Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager (SCCM), Ivanti, and Symantec Endpoint Management.
