I don't manage Windows devices via Mobicontrol yet but just to put an idea in here:

Are you able to read this status out locally on the machine?
If yes: I would do like this:

1. On startup (or regular base) a local program is checking your mentioned update status
2. Write this into an INI file
3. Gather this information with Mobicontrol by Custom Data targeting this INI file

If you do so, you should be able to filter and search for the relevant entrys.
Bad thing: You need to write such a tool on your own to generate and update this ini file.

There may be another and better approach but this are just my 2 cents without knowledge of what kind of information Soti collects from Windows devices.

Hi Ruwan,

Thank you for posting on SOTI Pulse! 

Has Rafael's response helped you in this query?

Soti does have many options for windows update as there is a profile configuration that can be used called "windows updates". Please let me know if this can possibly help you.
