Patchbot or other patching options

[kapla]

Hello, I am kind of walking into a weird situation here where I have been upgrading our jamf environment that has essentially been limped along for the last 2.5 years with no updates and I am trying to see if anyone might have experience implementing patchbot by chance? I want to give our workstations guys a more streamlined less hands on approach to patching so looking for options

I know there are a couple projects out there, App Auto-Patch is one. Https://techitout.xyz/app-auto-patch or https://github.com/robjschroeder/app-auto-patch

There's also Installomator and AutoPkg(r) with Jamf Pro (.jamf) recipe processors.  Give some consideration to your org's risk tolerance, though - traditional patching might be slower but gives you a chance to inspect packages and test locally, whereas Patchbot and Installomator trade some security and verification for that automation.
