To request the addition of a new 3rd Party Application in the Patch & Asset Management - 3rd Party Patch Management program, adhere to the following protocol:
1. Verify if the 3rd Part Application is already nominated on the voting list accessible here.
2. If present on the voting list, cast your vote for the application. Upon receiving 20 votes, the 3rd Party Application will be added to the 3rd Party Patch Management system. Post-voting, you can check the current vote count for your software.
3. If the software is absent from the voting list, submit a ticket to our Support Team for its nomination. The software must meet specific criteria to qualify for listing:
-

- Needs to support silent uninstall;
- Should be a widely used application;
- Must be patchable via the HEIMDAL Agent, whether the app is in use or closed;
Only software fulfilling all these criteria will be considered for addition to the voting list. Non-compliant applications will not be eligible for implementation.
