Migrating to Right Click Tools Patching

Last Modified on 08.07.25

If you have an existing implementation of Application Manager Legacy, you may be unsure about when to migrate to Right Click Tools Patching (previously called Application Manager with Recast Management Server). To highlight some of the considerations involved in that decision, the following chart shows the benefits and current limitations of each product.

Whenever you're ready to discuss your migration plans, or for more information, please contact your Customer Success Manager. 

NOTE: Right Click Tools Patching Enterprise licenses will only work in Recast Management Server when running Recast Software Version 5.4.2403.901 or later. Support for Intune is available in v5.7.2410.1403 and later.
