Application lifecycle management in your tenant

Third-party patching, automated packaging, ring-based rollouts, deployment verification, and post-deployment security visibility. Three focused products that close the loop, all running entirely in your Azure environment.

The application management loop

Most Intune shops have the deployment problem half-solved. You can push an app from the Intune admin center; you can pull a discovered-apps report; you can chase down install failures one device at a time. The harder problem is the loop: request → package → deploy → verify → keep up to date → roll back when something breaks.

Third-party patching vendors fill part of that loop, but most operate from a vendor cloud, charge per device, and require either an endpoint agent or broad Graph API consent to your Intune tenant. The trade-off: your packaging pipeline lives outside your environment.

PowerStacks closes the loop with three focused products, all running inside your Azure subscription. No vendor cloud holds your credentials. No endpoint agent. No per-device pricing meter.

The lifecycle, mapped to products

Four phases. Three products. Each runs in your tenant.

Phase 1

Package & deploy

Hash-verified WinGet packaging, custom MSI uploads, PSADT v4 wrap, direct deploy via the standard Intune Win32 pipeline.

Product

App Store for Intune →

✓WinGet manifests fetched + SHA-256 hash verified before packaging
✓Custom MSI uploads with auto-generated ARP detection rules
✓Self-service catalog with multi-stage approval workflows
✓Email + Teams notifications routed to requesters and approvers

Phase 2

Roll out & update

Ring-based rollouts using your existing Autopatch rings. Health-gated progression auto-pauses if failure rates spike.

Product

App Store for Intune →

✓Integrates with your existing Microsoft Autopatch deployment rings
✓Auto-detects new versions from WinGet manifests; deploys with one click
✓Per-app rollback to any prior version via the two-app deployment model
✓Halt rollout mid-flight when something breaks; no emergency repackaging

Phase 3

Verify deployment

Discovered apps, install status, and version compliance reported in Power BI across the whole fleet.

Product

BI for Intune →

✓Full Power BI star-schema model over your Intune dataset
✓Discovered apps inventory with install-status drill-through
✓Version compliance, with a per-device breakdown of which version is installed
✓Native Power BI authoring, with no DAX required for most reports

Phase 4

Post-deployment security

Threat detection and vulnerability data from Microsoft Defender, joined to your Intune fleet at the device level.

Product

BI for Defender →

✓Vulnerability and threat data from Microsoft Defender for Endpoint
✓Common key with BI for Intune, so a single visual spans both datasets
✓Catch newly deployed apps that introduce known CVEs
✓Application control reporting + security posture dashboards

Why tenant-local matters for application management

Application management touches the most privileged surface area in your endpoint estate. The product that packages an installer chooses what executes on your devices. The product that deploys it has write access to your Intune app environment. The product that reports on install status reads your full device inventory.

When all three of those products live in a vendor's cloud, you're trusting a third party with the keys to your endpoint fleet. PowerStacks runs all three products inside your tenant, which keeps that surface area inside your security boundary. Your Key Vault. Your conditional access. Your audit logs. Your responsibility.
