    Hi there, just need to confirm if Altiris Patch Management Solution includes Management Platform? Or do I need an extra license.

    The same for Altiris Client Management Suite...

    Thanks a lot!

    Best regards,

    NM

    Yes.

    Although the licenses are applied to the SMP they apply to clients.

    You could install the Symantec Management Platform and Symantec Management Agents on PCs and gather basic Inventory with no licences at all. You only need the licenses if you want to do things like Remote Control, full Inventory, Software Distribution or Patch Management.
