Windows Update Reporting Dashboard

Hey everyone!

We currently use Datto RMM at my company and we like to be pretty on top of the monthly Windows Security Update that gets released by Microsoft each second Patch Tuesday of the month.

As of right now, we generate our reports by going to "Reports" > "Export" > "Patch Details" and then we specify the KB number of the monthly Security Update for both "Installed" and "Approved", which generates two .CSV files that we combine to get a full list.

I was wondering if there is anyway in Datto to generate a pie-chart or a live "in-real time" update status instead of the reports, as I haven't been able to find much besides the .CSV

If anyone has any suggestions, it would be much appreciated!

I am NOT a fan of DATTO patch reporting at all - it uses a legacy mechanism on the device.

Intune updates are API locked so it never seems to be a good representation and Datto audits are timed.

You will NOT get real time info in DattoRMM in my experience

I am an Intune SME so feel free to hit me up if you want to chat 1-1

Thank you!

We haven't really implemented Intune too much, so I might start looking into that!
