TridentStack Control side by side
Honest comparisons against the patch management platforms TridentStack Control replaces and the vulnerability scanners it is measured against. Each page says where the other tool wins.
TridentStack Control vs WSUS
Free with Windows Server, but in deprecation and limited to Microsoft updates.
TridentStack Control vs Microsoft Intune
Strong MDM and EntraID integration. Limited Linux support and per-feature add-ons add up fast.
TridentStack Control vs PDQ Deploy
Beloved by Windows admins for simple deployment. Per-admin pricing on the on-prem product, per-device on the cloud product, no Linux.
TridentStack Control vs Tanium
Real-time visibility across very large fleets. Enterprise pricing, opaque rate card, heavy procurement.
TridentStack Control vs Action1
We win on compliance depth, MSP tenancy, vendor support from the first endpoint, and a published price past 200 endpoints. Both give 200 endpoints free forever, so the decision comes down to capabilities.
TridentStack Control vs NinjaOne
Polished MSP-focused RMM with bundled PSA, backup, and MDM. No free tier; tiered per-endpoint pricing.
TridentStack Control vs Automox
Cloud-native, broad Linux coverage, tiered pricing where only the entry tier is publicly listed.
TridentStack Control vs Atera
Per-technician pricing with unlimited devices, bundled PSA and AI Copilot. Structurally cheap for MSPs with many endpoints per tech.
TridentStack Control vs ManageEngine Patch Manager Plus
Deep enterprise patch tool with broad Linux distro support and very low per-endpoint pricing at scale. Free tier is 25 endpoints.
TridentStack Control vs Kaseya VSA
Deep ecosystem via acquisitions; per-endpoint pricing not publicly listed and multi-year contracts are common.
TridentStack Control vs Patch My PC
Massive third-party catalog (3,500+ products) priced per device per year. Requires SCCM, Intune, or WSUS underneath; not a standalone patch platform.
TridentStack Control vs ConnectWise Automate
Established MSP RMM with quote-based pricing and high implementation cost. Patches Windows only; Mac and Linux agents are monitoring-only.
TridentStack Control vs Syncro
Modern per-technician MSP RMM + PSA with unlimited endpoints. Patches Windows but not macOS; Linux RHEL/Ubuntu supported.
TridentStack Control vs Nessus
Standalone network scanning across broad infrastructure targets, with a restricted five-IP non-commercial Essentials offer.
TridentStack Control vs OpenVAS
Open-source network vulnerability scanning, with separate commercial appliances and a Windows/Linux agent technology preview.
TridentStack Control vs Qualys VMDR
Cloud and agent-based vulnerability management with network scanning and separately licensed patch deployment options.
TridentStack Control vs Rapid7 InsightVM
Agent and network vulnerability assessment with Active Risk prioritization and remediation integrations.
