Patch and Application Management Software

0

I recently downloaded a trial of GFI LanGuard for my home network (Server box, 6 PC's, and a couple of laptops, all in a workgroup) to take control of Patch Management and Application updates centrally and automatically. It works pretty well, scheduling audits and such, updating patches and software centrally, service packs etc - but the price is a little steep for a home solution.

I was wondering if anyone knows of any alternatives such like LanGuard that are perhaps Open Source or just cheaper.

Looking for something which can update custom applications - LanGuard was also able to take control of applications like iTunes, WinRAR etc.

Cheers!
