Every vendor does their own unique thing so, it depends. Some vendors even do 
different things with each of their products – disabling autoupdate in flash is 
done in a cfg file while doing it for Reader is done in the registry. Here are 
some PowerShell based compliance settings to help with this for some of the 
more popular products: https://sccmguru.wordpress.com/tag/compliance-settings/

Thank you Sherry.

One more question – For applications where we want to control the many 
“AutoUpdate” features such as Flash, JRE etc. Is there a method for handling 
that scenario when deploying updates to these applications via SCUP or any of 
the other products? Or would those still just be individual legacy packages 
deployed with an .MST or the like?

If you aren't familiar with any thing,  start with straight up scup.  In 
general you will likely need the components for normal scup to be in place and 
functioning anyway, even if you later decide you need to fill in gaps with a 
for-pay solution.

With straight scup, at a minimum you can start scanning and deploying adobe 
flashplayer updates, and updates to Adobe reader and acrobat.

Once you've successfully seen how it works for something like flashplayer, then 
you'll be able to objectively see how other solutions might fill in other 
missing things.

Hi Folks,

Just looking for some feedback on why I would choose SCUP over Secunia or 
vice-versa? I don’t have much experience with either one. I appreciate any 
input which provide a healthy contrast between these sort of tools.

Thanks,
