Answers to common questions

What is HCL BigFix Workspace+?

HCL BigFix Workspace+ is an enterprise workspace management software platform that unifies endpoint management, continuous compliance, software asset management, mobile device management, digital employee experience monitoring, and HCL BigFix AEX - an agentic AI platform for employee self-service - in a single agent and console. It is designed for hybrid enterprises managing thousands to hundreds of thousands of endpoints across any operating system, network condition, or location.

How is HCL BigFix Workspace+ different from HCL BigFix Workspace?

HCL BigFix Workspace includes lifecycle management, compliance, software asset management, mobile device management, and digital employee experience monitoring. HCL BigFix Workspace+ adds HCL BigFix AEX - an agentic AI platform that lets employees self-resolve IT issues through chat, voice, or mobile in 22 languages, detects anomalies autonomously, and self-heals endpoint issues before users notice them. HCL BigFix AEX is exclusive to Workspace+ and is the primary reason organisations upgrade from Workspace to Workspace+.

What does digital employee experience mean in the context of workspace management?

Digital employee experience (DEX) refers to the quality of the technology environment employees use to do their work - covering device performance, application reliability, and how quickly IT issues get resolved. In HCL BigFix Workspace+, DEX monitoring surfaces device health issues, performance degradation, and anomalies across your hybrid workforce before they become support tickets. Combined with HCL BigFix AEX self-healing, it means employees experience fewer disruptions and IT teams spend less time on reactive support.

What is a workspace management platform and how is it different from a traditional endpoint management tool?

A workspace management platform goes beyond traditional endpoint management tools by combining device security and compliance with employee experience capabilities. Where a traditional endpoint management tool focuses on patching, configuration, and policy enforcement, a workspace management platform like HCL BigFix Workspace+ also monitors how well endpoints are performing for employees, automates helpdesk interactions through AI, and manages the full device lifecycle from provisioning to decommissioning - including mobile devices - from one agent and console.

How does HCL BigFix AEX improve the digital employee experience?

HCL BigFix AEX is an agentic AI platform, included exclusively in Workspace+. It improves the digital employee experience by enabling employees to self-resolve common IT issues - password resets, software access, disk space, application problems - through natural language conversation via chat, voice, web, or mobile, without opening a ticket. HCL BigFix AEX resolves 70% of tasks autonomously with zero wait times, handles queries 45% faster than traditional support, and self-heals endpoint issues before employees are disrupted. It supports 22 languages and integrates with ServiceNow, Microsoft Teams, Slack, and 50+ enterprise tools out of the box.

What are the main benefits of a workspace management platform for enterprise IT?

For enterprise IT teams, an integrated workspace management platform like HCL BigFix Workspace+ delivers four core benefits. First, tool consolidation - replacing fragmented point tools for patching, compliance, inventory, mobile, and helpdesk with a single agent and console. Second, faster risk reduction - automated patch management with a 99.5% first-pass success rate, prioritised by CISA KEV and MITRE ATT&CK. Third, continuous compliance - configuration drift is detected and remediated automatically across PCI-DSS, HIPAA, CIS, DISA STIG, NIS2, and DORA. Fourth, reduced helpdesk load - HCL BigFix AEX self-service and self-healing handles routine requests autonomously, freeing your team for work that needs human attention.

How does HCL BigFix Workspace+ support a hybrid workforce?

HCL BigFix Workspace+ is built for the hybrid enterprise. One lightweight agent manages endpoints across on-premises, cloud, remote, and air-gapped environments - without requiring VPN connectivity for policy enforcement or patch deployment. DEX monitoring gives IT teams visibility into device health across remote and office employees in one view. HCL BigFix AEX lets remote employees self-resolve issues through any channel - Teams, web, mobile, or voice - without needing to call the helpdesk. Mobile device management covers iOS and Android alongside traditional endpoints, so there are no gaps in coverage for a distributed workforce.

What operating systems does HCL BigFix Workspace+ support?

HCL BigFix Workspace+ supports 120+ operating systems including Windows, macOS, Linux, UNIX, AIX, Solaris, iOS, and Android - covering both modern and legacy environments from one agent. This breadth of OS support is particularly valuable for enterprises running mixed estates or legacy infrastructure that other workstation management software platforms do not cover. HCL BigFix is SCAP 1.3 certified and NIAP validated, making it suitable for regulated and government environments.
