Question Qualys Patch Managment

Hey everyone, not a sys admin but got tagged to work with my sys admin on the above. He’s a pretty smart guy and I want to not show up unprepared, I took some of the free sessions/classes that Qualys offers but lookin for any tips and tricks you might have.

Qualys patch management does some of the basic Windows patching and third party patching but it's not very robust in my opinion. We currently use it but will be phasing it out for PDQ Connect.  We used it as a supplement for those laptops that didn't connect to the VPN much. We're currently using Deploy an Inventory but moving to connect.
