Ivanti vs LiveAgent
A side-by-side editorial comparison of Ivanti and LiveAgent — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
Ivanti vs LiveAgent: at a glance
What is Ivanti?
Ivanti's Secure Access Client ships weekly mobile point releases — 22.7.4 through 22.8.7 — with documentation as the only visible signal.
The visible Ivanti feed is dominated by weekly Supported Platforms Guides for the Ivanti Secure Access Client (formerly Pulse Secure) on iOS, Android, and ChromeOS, spanning versions 22.7.4 through 22.8.7. A cumulative Android release notes index for 22.2.1–22.8.6 and accompanying admin and MDM deployment guides confirm steady mobile-client cadence. The captured content is documentation landing pages, not detailed change descriptions.
What is LiveAgent?
LiveAgent's 5.70 branch adds Mistral and Gemini, live call transcription and message translation.
LiveAgent's 5.70 branch arrived with a large feature batch: Mistral AI as an EU-hosted provider, Gemini and OpenAI for ticket summaries and translation, live call transcription with speaker attribution, and on-demand translation of inbound messages. It also adds a Deskpro migration plugin and plan limits on event, time and SLA rules. The releases since are fix-only, mostly around chat widget errors and API gaps.

Ivanti
3.8SUPPORT
Ivanti's Secure Access Client ships weekly mobile point releases — 22.7.4 through 22.8.7 — with documentation as the only visible signal.
◆ Current state
The visible Ivanti feed is dominated by weekly Supported Platforms Guides for the Ivanti Secure Access Client (formerly Pulse Secure) on iOS, Android, and ChromeOS, spanning versions 22.7.4 through 22.8.7. A cumulative Android release notes index for 22.2.1–22.8.6 and accompanying admin and MDM deployment guides confirm steady mobile-client cadence. The captured content is documentation landing pages, not detailed change descriptions.
◆ Where it's heading
With only documentation pages observable, product trajectory is hard to read concretely. The frequent point releases suggest active maintenance of the mobile security client; the historical Pulse Secure → Ivanti rebrand and the Classic UI / New-UI dual maintenance both indicate gradual consolidation rather than a fresh directional move.
◆ Prediction
Expect continued weekly point releases on 22.8.x and a likely transition to 22.9.x or a 23.x line later in 2026. Substantive product moves probably exist in detailed release notes the crawler isn't reaching — a different ingestion path (the per-version release notes endpoints, not the SPG landing pages) would surface more useful signal.
LiveAgent
6.3SUPPORT
LiveAgent's 5.70 branch adds Mistral and Gemini, live call transcription and message translation.
◆ Current state
LiveAgent's 5.70 branch arrived with a large feature batch: Mistral AI as an EU-hosted provider, Gemini and OpenAI for ticket summaries and translation, live call transcription with speaker attribution, and on-demand translation of inbound messages. It also adds a Deskpro migration plugin and plan limits on event, time and SLA rules. The releases since are fix-only, mostly around chat widget errors and API gaps.
◆ Where it's heading
The AI layer is turning multi-provider: OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini and Mistral now sit side by side, with retired OpenAI models migrated automatically. Voice and translation are where that layer is being applied first. The paired 5.69 and 5.70 releases on the same day show two branches being maintained in parallel.
◆ Prediction
Expect message translation to move past its 'Stage 1' on-demand scope, likely toward outbound or automatic translation. Further 5.69/5.70 fix pairs are likely in the meantime.
