Overview

Product Information on Quest KACE

Updated 13th October 2025

What is Quest KACE?

Quest KACE is a software designed to automate and streamline endpoint management tasks across multiple devices within an organization. The software provides features such as asset inventory, software distribution, patch management, and configuration management. It enables IT teams to monitor, update, and secure windows, macOS, and Linux endpoints, as well as manage software licenses and compliance requirements. The software aims to address business challenges related to managing and securing endpoints, reducing manual workload, and supporting regulatory compliance by centralizing device control and process automation. Quest KACE also offers tools for service desk integration, remote administration, and vulnerability assessment to assist organizations in maintaining systems and improving overall IT efficiency.

Quest KACE Pricing

Quest KACE software uses a subscription-based pricing model, where organizations pay recurring fees based on the number of managed devices or endpoints. Licensing tiers may vary depending on the scope of features and size of deployment. Additional modules or capabilities may be available for separate fees, and pricing often accommodates on-premises or cloud-based implementation options.

very good ticketing and End Point management solution (baked in DELL updates are nice). can be complex and over engineered. support is average.

CRITICAL

“Reliable Ticket Accessibility Amid Confusing Interface and Slow Loading Times”

3.0
Nov 26, 2025
The system fulfills my basic needs but has no standout features that would make it exceptional. The navigation within the tool is acceptable, but overall not really intuitive. Especially in the reporting area I see a lot of room for improvement. The notifications also work as intended, but a greater flexibility in configuration would improve the usability enormously. Nevertheless, it's a reliable and stable solution.

Quest KACE Likes & Dislikes

Like

one step solution for inventory and updates for endpoints. robust ticketing options.

Like

The system is reliable and ensures that tickets are always accessible. The creating, apdating and closing of tickets is straightforward. The web-bases solution ensures easy access from different devices without client installation process.

Like

KACE makes asset management easy. Adding new entries or searching for existing ones is easy. The user interface is sleek and easy to navigate. KACE is also great for pushing out updates to your organization's workstations.

Dislike

when issues arise support as typical is only average

Dislike

The user interface is confusing and makes it difficult to find advanced options or settings. Extrem long loading times when saving tickets. Lack of seamless integration with other enterprise tools creates manual work.

Dislike

Implementation could potentially be considered a hassle. Sometimes searching for assets is not as intuitive as you would like it to be. I have had issues with not being able to find assets that I know are catalogued. I also found that the types of reports you can generate seem to be lacking as well.
